September 8, 2014

This is the third in a series of posts that we will be publishing over the next 5 Mondays on the topic of giving and 20 schemes. Apparently, we at 20schemes do fund-raising all wrong—at least, that is, according to the “experts.” Part of my role at 20schemes is to facilitate partnerships in North America, […]

Can We Take God at His Word?
September 3, 2014

So this takes the prize as the first book I read on my recent holiday. There is no particular reason it worked out that way. I merely woke up, reached out and picked up the first book from the pile on my bedside cabinet and it turned out to be this bad boy.  With a […]
