Isn't Canadian Reformed Seminary the seminary of the Canadian Reformed Church? Is there a problem with them?

I mean I always had the impression that it is a good seminary because I know of a minister who earned his M. Div. there. That minister who is solidly reformed praises it a lot. So, has there been any changes? What's with the ""?

They're somewhat numerous in Southwestern Ontario, with several congregations within about an hour drive of where I live. I would say that their seminary would be rigorous and solid, wherever it is. I've heard a CanRef pastor preach a funeral before and his sermon was dead on and gospel-rich.

I also work with an elder from the Ancaster congregation here and he described to me their examination of some ministerial candidates. Not pretty.

Wes Bredenhof (Guido's Brother) is a CanRef, he can probably tell you all about it.

(Kevin, as for not being Dutch, there are procedures and rituals we can do to get you where you need to be, but it's not cheap and you may need a surgery or two. Do you stand at least 6'1"?)

Well, I didn't want to sugar-coat it. If you're not born that way, it's not an easy road...
