Matthew Porter tackles what for many Christians is a difficult, often embarrassing subject with refreshing openness and honesty. Drawing on both the stories of the early churches to whom St Paul wrote, and his own experiences as a Christian leader and follower of Jesus, how powerfully illustrates how giving is not a duty to be grudgingles fulfilled but an art to be practised with joy.
Matthew Porter
I am Matthew Porter.
Follower of Jesus. Church leader. Author.
I’m the Bishop of Bolton, a Church of England bishop in the North of England. After a short spell in law I’ve served churches of different shapes and sizes in Sheffield and York and now in Greater Manchester, and have been an Honorary Chaplain to the Monarch.
Married to Sam, we have five grown-up sons and love life in the North! I’m passionate about practical discipleship, servant leadership and church revitalisation, with a Masters degree in evangelism and a Doctorate in church planting.
Among the bishop’s I’m the new Chair of the College of Evangelists and a Champion Bishop for Missionary Discipleship. I write books, aiming to equip ordinary people to live well and impact those around them with the extraordinary kindness of Jesus Christ.
