2/28/14 STEVEN TIMMERMANS NOMINATED AS NEW CRC CEO,(I grew up in the Christian Reformed Church...my dad & grand-dad are/were crc pastors so I follow crc news to this day,as I am also an active evangelist & seminary-educated but not crc ordained. I have done some formal ministry/mission work for the crc but not yet inclined to become a formally ordained crc pastor. In fact, I grew up within walking distance from the crc headquarters at 28th & kalamazoo. I learned how to golf at the golf course across from the denominational headquarters (Indian Trails) as well as at the CRC "rec center". I care deeply for "my crc", not just the dutch ethnic aspects but its mission in the world for Christ: for,with,& to people of all colors,ethnicities, et al. I pray that Mr Timmermans will have the wisdom to lead the crc in the right direction. It will be interesting to watch what he does...apparently he is well-educated with much experience albeit is not an ordained pastor. Is this the new direction for the crc? A move away from ordained pastors as executive officers? Is this a good thing? Or otherwise? Time will tell. Hear our pray Lord for our new CEO! search:, trinity christian college,crcna,grand rapids,crc,christian reformed church;*read more at
