What we do

Seen & Unseen is an invitation to see the world differently. In a world often fixated on the seen, but blind to unseen realities, it brings fresh Christian perspectives to the issues we are all talking about. It includes over 1,000 articles: stories, opinions, podcasts, cultural commentary, as well as book, music, arts and film reviews.

We're not interested in a nostalgic return to Christendom, but we do believe that the Christian faith, with two thousand years of reflection on what it means to be human and where we came from, still has much to offer the modern world.

Seen & Unseen brings together voices from many mainstream Christian traditions to give new insights on culture, politics, history, spirituality, freedom of belief, philosophy and theology.

Discover more about why we founded the title, and what drives us, by reading Graham Tomlin's introduction to Seen & Unseen.

Seen & Unseen is a product of the Centre for Cultural Witness. Its other activities are leadership training and research project. Find out more about the centre.
