The Christian Reformed Church (CRC) split from the Reformed Church in America (then known as the Dutch Reformed Church) in an 1857 secession.This was rooted in part as a result of a theological dispute that originated in the Netherlands when Hendrik De Cock was deposed for his Calvinist convictions, leading there to the Secession of 1834–35.For the CRC founders in America, the RCA at the.

Did you know there is actually a “Sovereign Grace Singles” dating site for Christian singles? Oh, wait a minute, Sovereign Grace Singles (sovereigngracesingles.com) is not for all single Christians, but only for those who hold to a Reformed theological point of view. Sovereign Grace Singles even uses this Scripture from Amos 3:3 to back up their point of view: ‘Can two walk together except they be agreed?’ How outrageous, sad…and unbiblical! Check out this quote on the Sovereign Grace Singles chat room page:
“As Calvinists we worship, it seems, a different God, or at least, we have a much different God-concept. Have you ever become frustrated because it is hard to find someone Theologically/Philosophically like-minded?”

We Are All Sovereign Grace Singles
There is enough division in the world and hatred toward Christians, than to have Christian singles groups like Sovereign Grace Singles put up barriers against other single Christians like what I read on this site. Do Calvinists really worship a different God? Are other professing evangelical Christians so different as to be shunned as an unbeliever?
As a Reformed Christian myself, this is all news to me. The last time I checked my Bible being unequally yoked meant uniting with people who deny Jesus as Lord and Saviour. Jesus said they will know we are Christians by our love for each other. Can you imagine the impact if we actually practiced this?

A post in this thread about the band Blackball got me thinking about Christian artists who are theologically Reformed. It occurs to me that a huge number of Christian musicians attend Scotty Smith’s church outside Nashville and that is a Presbyterian Church, but it seems there is a vast difference between attending a Prebyterian Church and holding (and claiming) Reformed theology. So I am wondering, what are some of the Reformed artists out there?
To head-off the criticism before it comes, I do not wish to say that these artists are better than non-Reformed ones. I just happen to love the Reformed faith and am wondering what musicians share it.
Here are a few I can think of off-hand (with a bit of information about each):
- Derek Webb – Just check out the Resources section at his Web site
- Caedmon’s Call (though perhaps Webb was the only Reformed member and he is no longer part of the band).
- Precious Death – Their album covers often had Reformed creeds written in them. Their self-titled album had a list of “Fifteen great books in no particular order” that included titles by Packer, Sproul, Calvin, Owens, Hodge (both A.A. and Charles), Boetner, etc.
- Blackball – Christopher Scott who was lead vocalist and songwriter for Blackball was also lead writer and singer for Precious Death (see above).
- Steve Camp – Wrote an album based on Piper’s book Desiring God and has often identified himself as Reformed.
That is all I can think of at the moment. Care to add any?
