A Note from the Board

After serving as editor of The Outlook magazine (formerly Torch and Trumpet) since 2016, Mr. Dan Van Dyke will be stepping down from this role at the end of this year. Mr. Van Dyke joined Reformed Fellowship as a board member and brought with him a lifetime of experience in the printing industry, where he owned and managed his own business. This background provided invaluable expertise to the publishing work of Reformed Fellowship.

Dan’s deep love for solid Reformed material was evident in the thoughtful selection of articles that helped shape the magazine and its ministry. We are truly grateful for his expertise, faithful time commitment, and strong relationships with our authors. His column, “Did You Know?” added a delightful touch of curiosity and charm to the magazine. We thank him for his many contributions and pray that the Lord will continue to bless him and his wife Kathy in the days ahead.

Mr. Van Dyke follows in the footsteps of well-known men and women who shared a passion for relating our reformed confessional heritage to a wide range of applications for the ordinary Christian. These include:

John Piersma, 1951–1957; H. J. Kuiper, 1957–1963; P. Y. de Jong, 1963–1970;

John Vander Ploeg, 1970–1977; Peter de Jong, 1978–1990;

Tom & Laurie Vanden Heuvel, 1990–2001; Wybren H. Oord, 2001–2016

As one editor steps down, it is time for the torch to be passed on to another. We are seeking someone to fill this role. The job description may be reviewed here .
