We're going to do a Calvin, a John Calvin conference in September because this is his 500th birthday this year.

And the theme of it is called With Calvin in the Theater of God.

I mentioned it only to put that picture in front of you.

For him, and I think he's right, the world, the universe, is the theater of God.

There's where the drama is enacted that's all intended to display the glory of God.

And God has two books, therefore, two scripts.

That's the way I've set up some of the lectures in that.

This is the authoritative one to tell us what we know is true.

The rest of the world is another book. It's not the authoritative

one because it's ambiguous, but you can read off of it a lot of things about God.

On the way here this morning, I don't know if you sell the sun dogs. This incredible thing.

Here's the sun coming up.

This is about 35 minutes ago.

And then on either side, these golden parentheses that happens very rarely.

I was only seen it twice in my life.

And Nathan commented that the Lord is bracketing the sun.

It's like, in case you didn't notice, there's the sun in between these two parentheses

of gold.

Awesome.

One of the points that I'm going to make later

is that we stir up

joy in our lives
