The Christelijke Gereformeerde Kerken (CGK) is a confessional Reformed denomination in the Netherlands, formed in 1892 from congregations that refused to join the merger producing the Gereformeerde Kerken. The CGK subscribes to the Three Forms of Unity and has maintained a robust catechetical and preaching tradition, training its ministers at its seminary in Apeldoorn. AskCredo places the CGK in the A-tier as a broadly Reformed Dutch body, noting that its congregations range from strictly confessional to more evangelical in practice and that ecumenical engagement with less confessional bodies has produced internal debate.
