This lecture will be my attempt to share with you some of my experiences and observations which I gained while I spent four months in the Netherlands as an exchange lecturer meeting with various ministers, professors and students in the churches, the universities and the seminary at Driebergen. It was in the last place that I stayed and became acquainted with the 19th semester class of thirty-nine students who were there to finish their training in what is called a seminary for training in pastoral and practical studies. Further I have augmented my information by read ing in the church press which publishes a wide variety of material in which one can bury himself if he has the time and inclination to do so. Even though I have through these media absorbed as much as I was able, I must caution you not to expect me to be an authority on the church in the Netherlands. In the compass of this lecture I hope to relate my limited impressions, and perhaps in the discussions which may follow I may elaborate further. I hope that the main purpose of the exchange. of lectureship with Professor H. de Vos may be realized, viz., to acquaint ourselves with the Church in the Netherlands, even as Prof. de Vos is now informing his church about the R.C.A.
