Rev. Herman Hoeksema
Herman Hoeksema (1886-1965) is considered one of the founding "fathers" of the Protestant Reformed Churches in America. He and his consistory (Eastern Ave. Christian Reformed Church in Grand Rapids, MI) were suspended and deposed from their offices in 1924-1925 because of their opposition to the "Three Points of Common Grace" adopted by the Christian Reformed Church in the Synod of Kalamazoo, MI in 1924. He, together with Rev. George M. Ophoff, Rev. H. Danhof and their consisstories continued in office in the "Protesting Christian Reformed Church" which shortly thereafter were named the "Protestant Reformed Churches in America."
Herman Hoeksema served as pastor in the 14th Street Christian Reformed Church in Holland, MI (1915-1920), Eastern Ave. Christian Reformed church in Grand Rapids, MI (1920-1924), First Protestant Reformed Church in Grand Rapids, MI (1924-1964), he taught in the Seminary of the Protestant Reformed Churches (1924-1964), and retired in 1964.
The audio sermons presented were recorded towards the end of his ministry. Because of the age of the recordings and because these were preached after he had recovered from a devastating stroke, the quality of these recording may be somewhat substandard.
