John Van Eyk
Is the new Lay Minister at Knox Presbyterian Church in Fingal. He is
married to a local girl who grew up at Knox Church. They have four
children. John worked at Ford Motor Company in Talbotville for 30
years before retiring in 2007. He has been a lay preacher for over 10
years in area churches. He is an avid reader and studier of Scripture
as he has well over 3000 Christian and theological books in his home.

He believes the Bible to be the inspired Word of God and that Jesus
Christ is,
" The way,the truth and the life and that no man can come
to God the Father but through Him."
John 14:6 He preaches the old
gospel and salvation through Jesus Christ as 1 Corinthians 1:18,
"For
the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but
unto us which are saved it is the power of God."
His messages are
Scriptural, interesting, and applicable for today as he believes
preacher stands, as renowned minister John Stott has said,
"Between
two worlds, the world of the Bible and the world in which his hearers
live. He must understand both, and bridge the divide so that the
contemporary hearer really hears in his circumstances and
experience the timeless, infallible, completed and sufficient written
Word. Preaching is the means by which the objective written Word
becomes, without changing its message one bit, the Word of God
spoken to us."
