LaGrave Live with Reverend Peter Jonker
Talk Show:
Reverend Peter Jonker

If you’re looking for a warm church that commits to an intensely pertinent Gospel in the Reformed tradition of the Christian faith, we invite you to worship with us. Our 1,800 members come from across West Michigan and gather weekly in our sanctuary for relevant Biblical preaching, beautiful music, and inspiring worship. We expand our worship through intentional outreach in our community and world, attentive care for our members, and plenty of spiritual enrichment and social opportunities for everyone.

We focus on a living Savior who provides genuine solutions to the deep needs of a hurting world. We are committed to need-meeting ministry in His name, and we are committed to being real people who enjoy real life and who cry real tears. Because we are a fairly large and diverse group in terms of age, occupation, marital status, lifestyle, and physical ability; our members create many accessible opportunities for community service, Bible study, and small social groups.

We worship God, the Almighty Creator of heaven and earth, and we enjoy expressing our vision of His holiness through traditional music and formal liturgy.

Music plays an integral part of our weekly worship gatherings. Congregational singing—of both traditional hymns and newer ones—is typically supported by our pipe organ. Vocal choirs, handbell choirs, small ensembles, instrumentalists, and vocal soloists provide additional music offerings.

Led by the Holy Spirit, we seek to worship and serve God in all of life, transforming His world and being transformed to reflect the character of Christ.

Founded by 36 Dutch immigrants on February 24, 1887, LaGrave Avenue Christian Reformed Church has always been deeply committed to both this local community and worldwide missions. God has seen fit to guide and bless these commitments with sustained growth, spiritual gifting, and a continual stream of new work for our members.

Biography:

For as long as I can remember my life has been formed by words. Some of my earliest memories involve my parents reading me Bible stories at bedtime. The Holy Spirit used those story times to plant the seed of the Word in me.  The Spirit nourished that seed through my loving family, the time spent at Christian elementary school, and by great works of Christian imagination like C.S. Lewis’ the Narnia Chronicles and J.R.R. Tolkein’s The Lord of the Rings. I now have the privilege of standing up in front of people every week and sharing the stories of God’s life-giving Word with others. I grew up in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, the child of a Math professor and a Christian school teacher.  I moved to Grand Rapids in 1985 to attend Calvin College and Calvin Seminary, and Grand Rapids has been my home ever since. My wife Linda and I have three children, Katherine, Patrick and Abby.
