About Seen & Unseen

The title

Our title is inspired by the first sentence of the Nicene creed,

We believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is,
seen and unseen.

Our purpose

Readers of Seen & Unseen will discover a world that is greater, more full of meaning and sense than you ever imagined. Discover more about why we founded the title, and what drives us, by reading Graham Tomlin's introduction to Seen & Unseen.
