PRAYING FOR MY BELOVED CRC MEMBERS & CALVIN COLLEGE et al to NOT ACQUIESCE TO FAR-LEFT LIBERALISM TO TRY TO BE ‘COOL’:
JESUS SAID: “I pray not that thou should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.
And for their sakes ..."

I know of Winnie because she married a guy on my same dorm floor, freshman year at Calvin ('85-86)...i became somewhat friends with this guy (steve)...sort of..his dad was a CRC missionary...played sports did a little fishing with steve but didn't realize that he was such a LEFTIST at a school that is known, in general, for being more conservative and towards the right (at least the students and parents, maybe less so the faculty to a certain extent). I really feel mixed about this because they, or she, is with a party that generally is in agreement with issues that I disagree (especially same-sex marriage & abortion), and which Calvin College asks Calvin students to stand against as well (when you apply for acceptance to Calvin
you must also submit a testimony of Christian faith...)

"Calvin remembers Dale Brown" - News and Stories - Calvin College
I remember Prof Brown from my days as an English major (2nd major,'92-94). Among other things,one day he calledme & asked if I wantedto play a game of raquetball (at the old "raquetball plus" where our family had been members when I was a child). I hadn't played RB in ages,and was student teaching at the time (a tiresome task) but I agreed & showed up & found out he's like a raquetball pro...every serve like a gunshot. Needless to say he beat me...I was just left wondering what was the point? I thought he called out of a sense of comraderie,but the point was clearly to prove he was a superior raquetball player (by the way,this was while a few other members of the English dept sat & watched,& Prof. Henry Baron actually laughed,as if they had planned this together as a moment to try to humiliate me...question being why? Old school? ) God bless Dale Brown,but shame on him & the other professors for unnecessarily trying to humble me(I have already been profoundly humbled by many of life's circumstances).Nonetheless,thoughts & prayers for Dale Brown's family.
