But…Together…Grace: Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the PRCA (and the RFPA)
The following blog post is taken from the opening devotions of the PRCA100 event which...
Book Review - "A Fantastic Way to Refresh and Sharpen Our Minds"
Reading this book is a fantastic way to refresh and sharpen our minds on what we believe, and why we actually believe it. Rev. Hoeksema really emphasizes the importance of knowing what is right and wrong on topics like church order and governance, common and particular grace, and being spiritually resilient and steadfast in our faith through controversy and schism. Knowledge of how men handled these things in the past and where they went wrong is a very valuable tool for us today as we strive to uphold God's truth in the church.
Book Review - "The Protestant Reformed Churches in America" (Part Two)
It is helpful to keep in mind, when reading this section, that defending the truth of God against errors that are maintained about Him has never been something optional for God’s church, or merely an academic exercise. The Lord has willed that false doctrine always threatens the church. One of His purposes in this is to spur the church to uncover and develop more of the truth about Him. So, a generation or two removed from this history, we can recognize that what we are learning, He specifically brought to pass for our growth in knowing and loving Him.
Book Review - "The Protestant Reformed Churches in America" (Part One)
On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the PRC, the Reformed Free Publishing Association has published the 3rd edition of this book, first published in 1936. This has given opportunity for me, a Protestant Reformed believer, to once again read about the events that directly effected the lives of my grandparents, parents, my wife and I, and our children. What were the issues from Rev. Hoeksema’s perspective? In what ways does Herman Hoeksema speak to me who was born 4 years after Hoeksema had already been brought to heaven? Are there things I can learn from this that are relevant today?
Book Review - "Pastoral and Relevant"
The sermons are pastoral, and they pull the reader into the basics of what a person should believe if they are a Christian. He quotes relevant scripture, and his love of the Creed, the Bible, and the people of God is apparent. This title is relevant for anyone wanting to study the Apostles’ Creed in particular, or for any believer who wants to better understand what they believe.
Book Review - "Profitable, Indeed at Times Something of a Challenge"
Apart from that, the sermons have never before appeared in print. We owe their existence to Martin Swart (1891-1977), a member and elder of the church, who took them down and subsequently transcribed them into notebooks, whence David Engelsma has edited them for this volume.
