eligion, the fear of God, must therefore be the element which inspires and animates all theological investigation. That must be the pulsebeat of the science. A theologian is a person who makes bold to speak about God because he speaks out of God and through God. To profess theology is to do holy work. It is a priestly ministration in the house of the Lord. It is itself a service of worship, a consecration of mind and heart to the honour of His name." - Herman Bavinck (1854-1921)

MISSION STATEMENT

The Kuyper Foundation is a Christian charitable trust founded in 1987. It exists to promote a renaissance of Christian culture in society by furthering awareness of the implications of the Christian faith for every sphere of life, including the church, family and State. This vision of Christian society was expressed in the words of Abraham Kuyper, the Dutch Christian theologian and Statesman, who said: "One desire has been the ruling passion of my life. One high motive has acted like a spur upon my mind and soul. And sooner than that I should seek escape from the sacred necessity that is laid upon me, let the breath of life fail me. It is this: That in spite of all worldly opposition, God's holy ordinances shall be established again in the home, in the school and in the State for the good of the people; to carve as it were into the conscience of the nation the ordinances of the Lord, to which Bible and Creation bear witness, until the nation pays homage again to him." The Foundation seeks to promote this vision of Christian society by publishing literature, distributing audio-visual materials, and running lecture courses and conferences. The Kuyper Foundation is a registered charity in England (no. 327537) funded by voluntary donations from those who believe in the cause for which it works.

FUNDING

The Kuyper Foundation has an international ministry. Christianity & Society is sent to many people around the world, including the Third World, and to many Christian ministries and institutes free of charge due to the high costs of First World literature in Third World countries and the financial constraints placed on many ministries operating in both the First and Third Worlds. In addition to this the Kuyper Foundation is committed to publishing high quality books that address important issues facing the Church and society from a distinctively Christian (i.e. biblical) perspective. In order to do this and further develop our work we need funding from those who believe in the cause for which we are working. The growth of our literature, publishing, web site, conference and lecture ministries, and the establishing of an institute to facilitate the further development of the Foundation's work, requires a significant increase in our financial support base. The limits of our work are established by the giving of those who support the Foundation financially.
