two articles by an old college friend

Here are two articles by Pastor Mark Vroegop of Calvary Baptist Church in Holland, Michigan. He's an old friend from college, and we toured together in a traveling quartet for a year.

• Creating a Culture of Reconciliation
• Humble Pie on ChristianityToday.com

He will be speaking at our alma mater, Cedarville University, in the 10:00 AM chapel service on Thursday, August 31. Sadly, I will not be able to make it there to see him.

Some info from his church website:

Mark has been the Senior Pastor at Calvary since 1996. His passion is to empower believers to experience life change by delighting in God through the Word. He presently serves on the editorial advisory board for HeartCry - A Journal on Revival and Spiritual Awakening, published by Life Action Ministries. He is a bi-annual speaker for Life Action Ministries' Family Camp and published "Revival as Turning from Idolatry" in HeartCry Journal (Issue 17, Summer 2001). For four years he was a member of the Pastoral Advisory Board for Holland Community Hospital, and he is presently serving on the advisory board of the Association of Baptists for World Evangelism.
