Who We Are

Christian Reformed Campus Ministry takes a `total scriptura’ (all of scripture) approach to campus ministry. Our staring point is the Reformed understanding of an original `good’ creation, a creation wide fall into sin and a cosmic restoration. The Reformed emphasises on an originally good creation that “… all things were created by him and for him,” and our creation/cultural mandate holds up to us a unique worldview that all of creation – every human activity, every blade of grass, every animal, every cultural initiative – was intended to glorify God. CR-chaplains call people to enjoy creation, to delve into it and study it and to strive to be responsible stewards of its bounty.

Continuing in this vein, this perspective bequeaths us scope – it recognizes that everyone one and everything – tangible and intangible on a university campus, from the president to the students, from the custodial staff to the faculty, from the philosophies bandied about in lecture halls, to dorm room entertainment and varsity sports is of concern to us, because it is of concern to God. He created it and it is his.
