Hi Elliot,
As you suggested, I’moved the $date formatting to be within the loop. I’m still pulling the wrong date for each post. For some reason it seems to be pulling the wrong date for each post. I have no idea where it’s getting this date from since none of the posts have this date. Below is my code and live link:

<?php
remove_action('genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop');
add_action('genesis_loop', 'custom_loop');
function custom_loop() {
// Intro Text (from page content)
echo '<div class="page hentry entry">';
echo '<h1 class="entry-title">'. get_the_title() .'</h1>';
echo '<div class="entry-content">' . get_the_content() ;
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'events', // enter your custom post type
'meta_key' => 'class_date', // name of custom field
'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
'order' => 'ASC',
);
$loop = new WP_Query( $args );
if( $loop->have_posts() ):
while( $loop->have_posts() ): $loop->the_post(); global $post;
echo '<div id="events">';
echo '<h3>' . get_the_title() . '</h3>';
/* Create PHP DateTime object from Date Picker Value
this example expects the value to be saved in the format: yymmdd (JS) = Ymd (PHP) */
$date = DateTime::createFromFormat('yymmdd', get_field('class_date'));
echo '<p>' . date('F n Y') . '</p>';
echo '<p>'. get_field('time') . '</p>';
echo '<p>' . get_the_content() . '</p>';
echo '</div>';
endwhile;
endif;
}
/** Remove Post Info */
remove_action('genesis_before_post_content','genesis_post_info');
remove_action('genesis_after_post_content','genesis_post_meta');
genesis();
?>
