Hi, my name is...

Paul Hopkins. This site is for those interested in all things YWAM, blogging, web design and my other ramblings!

where does funding come from?

We have some very faithful people who support us financially on a regular basis - usually monthly. We also have people give us one-off gifts. The regular giving enables us to budget and plan what we are able to do. People commit to giving regularly from anything up to a year. And by the way, no amount is too small! The Kingdom operates under giving and recieving, not buying and selling (see Isaiah!), and so we do not charge for what we do, we rely on the gifts of people who believe in what we are doing. If you want to see if you believe in what we are doing, maybe you should read our latest enewsletter which will tell you some of the things that we have been up to recently.As we are Christian workers, recognised by the Inland Revenue, anyone paying tax is able to go through a scheme to get the tax back ontop of the gift that is made. This increases your giving by over 20%. The scheme that does this is called sovereign giving.

 

    Reading at the minute

  • The Adobe Illustrator CS3 WOW! Book

    I managed to get a hold of this book in Waterstones with vouchers from Christmas and I am loving it so far! I have particulary enjoyed it introducing me to the way Illustrator handles palettes and colour schemes. I have wanted to get into Illustrator for a while now, as I think it would be a brilliant addition to my armoury for web design. So far, I am loving it!

  • Binding and Loosing

    This came highly recommended and I found it very helpful in understanding key passages like Matthew 16. Very good exploration of the authority of believers. It was not as theologically rigorous as I was hoping, but nonetheless, some excellent exposition. Well worth getting

  • Brilliant presentation

    I just picked this book up, after it was highly recommended. I'm seeing whether I can sharpen up my presentation skills. I know you can't replace the anointing, but I am sure that sometimes our poor presentation gets in the way of the anointing!!
