HawkinsSoftware is the sole proprietorship of Byron Hawkins, provider of Java development contracting services. With a goal of continually increasing efficiency and effectiveness, HawkinsSoftware also pursues independent research and development focused on common software problems. The ultimate mission of this work is to offer witness to the living presence of Jesus Christ in our physical world by demonstrating that scientific progress is a process of recognizing and respecting the attributes of God in the mechanical functionality of the material universe.

A favorite example of this reality is Einstein's Theory of Relativity, by which the cohesion of time and space were first correctly understood through

1. recognition of the constancy of the speed of light, and
2. submission of all other known spatial and temporal relationships to that fact.

This theory proves effective because it corresponds to the truth of God as expressed by Himself in creation.

1. Light is declared by Jesus Christ to represent Himself (John 8:12), and
2. all things spiritual and physical will ultimately submit to Him (Philippians 2:10).

While Einstein never professed faith in Christ, he did believe that the physical universe is an expression of God, as evidenced by his famous quote, "I want to know God's thoughts; the rest are details."

Many engineering principles have been developed and applied with neither interest nor faith in God. It is my belief that these are all derived from a set of core principles, each of which was--and could only be--discovered by a mind seeking God's expression of Himself in creation. Therefore the procedure for research and development at HawkinsSoftware is as follows.

1. Identify a common software problem that limits the productivity of programs in general, and that is not recognized by the industry as having a potential solution.
2. Discover the attributes of our Lord, the disrespect of which is responsible for this technical problem.
3. Develop engineering principles and guidelines which enforce respect for these attributes of His Holiness in the context of the software problem.
4. Demonstrate the true living presence of our spiritual Father to all who have ears to hear (Mark 4:9) through application of these principles and guidelines, especially seeking to serve others with the newly discovered functionality.

As a Java development contractor, I focus on my obligation to serve the client as if in the employment of God Himself (Colossians 3:23). It is my intention to give my best effort to every client, whether there is much or little to be gained.
