Christelijke Encyclopedie

The Christelijke Encyclopedie is a publication by the company J.H. Kok from Kampen. The first edition appeared in five volumes from 1926 till 1929 with a supplement in 1931, under the redaction of the reformed theologian Frederik Willem Grosheide (1881-1972, father of the later secretary of state Hans Grosheide.) A second edition, in six volumes, followed from 1956-1961. Both editions are reference works for the Dutch Reformed Church.

In 2005 a third edition appeared in three volumes, under the same title, but the word "Christian" is treated from an ecumenical perspective. The authors of the latest edition include Jan Bank, Paul Cliteur, Bart Jan Spruyt, Gert Schutte and Kars Veling. The editor-in-chief was George Harinck.
