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 ..."

SHOULD CALVINISTS WEAR ORANGE TODAY? " Why You Should Wear Orange This Saint Patrick's Day"


"
But for a growing number of people, taking part
in the holiday means wearing orange. According
to this increasingly popular tradition,
Protestants wear orange and leave green attire
to Catholics. Thus, the color you wear actually
depends on your religious affiliation. While this
color tradition is not well known, it has deep
roots in Irish history..."

this video Reminds me of driving cross country w the wolf girls one Christmas in the 80's

I WAS WATCHING this video on display at the hammer museum ( which I do NOT endorse in general;...it is too liberal & anti-Christian)...but this video was interesting...a flashback to the 70's...reminded me of one Christmas when I was a student at calvin college and I agreed to drive a car from michigan to california for a lady who neede dher car delivered. They pay for the gas and we deliver the car. CHeap way to get back to calilfornia. And two gals I knew just from seeing them around the college found out I was going and they lived in the same area as me in california...so they asked if they could come along. I said sure...they were sisters by the way.. and we drove in this old 70's car with a bumper sticker that said "foxy grandma on board" ...and in Nebraska I got stopped for speeding...going about 70 or 80 in a 60 (before it was changed to 65)...kind of funny moment..and then we stayed at a hotel one night...shared a room and one of the gals felt she needed to warn me to stay on "my side of the room" ...as if I was a danger to them (that was really rude of her; in fact their dad was a pastor for the same denomination as my dad...and they treated me as if I was a danger to them? Why did they want to drive with me? And then finally we were going thru Arizona and I said "do you want to see teh grand canyon" and they had to call their dad and ask him if they could (they had never been there before...they were missionary kids from argentina...they only came to the usa around the time they started college...; their dad said OF COURSE..but these gals were so timid...strange considering they were missionary kids.

Bracket: DIV III MARCH MADNESS BEGINS ! INCL HOPE (holland) & CHAPMAN (orange) et al (no Knights )

I SAW CHAPMAN PLAY twice this season...once against claremont,& another time @ cal tech.They do have some good players but they actually almost got beat by cal tech (the 2nd time) , which had one of the best seasons in a while (which isn't saying much;the beavers of cal tech are not a sports school,but a brain school that plays a little bit of sports). HOPE of holland,meanwhile, looks pretty strong . They beat their rivals calvin (my alma mater) twice this year.
