Beauchief Abbey Press was founded by scientist and food writer Linda Evans and cultural campaigner R M Parry to make widely available books of a scholarly but devotional nature expressing broad church theology and it’s offer today. Our books are for people who are curious to know more about culture, society and faith, and how they relate. The first Beauchief Abbey Press books are written by the internationally renowned Old Testament scholar John W Rogerson. His writing reflects a long career of engagement with philosophical, theological, historical and contemporary cultural interests. Our paperbacks offer short accessible, contemporary reads that explore traditional Christian faith in an honest and open setting.

Recently we launched the Beauchief Abbey Press Reprints series, offering an insight into voices from the past who serve historic broad church themes. Writers such as Ralph Cudworth in the 17th century, F.D. Maurice and William Robertson Smith in the 19th century and more recently Arthur Clutton-Brock, T.R. Glover and C. K. Barrett in the 20^th century bore witness to deep, honest and strong Biblical faith culture that could strengthen public understanding, enlightenment and reconciliation. Their vision and the lessons learned are still deeply relevant for today’s society.

Our books are for those interested history, spirituality, church and faith but also, importantly, for people not connected with faith traditions who seek accessible, good information about the role and offer of faith in contemporary society.
