Welcome to the Edward King Centre at St Stephen’s House, Oxford

This is the hub of online lectures and talks — live and on demand — firmly rooted in the tradition of the Oxford Movement. We embrace the spiritual, moral and liturgical riches of this expression of the Christian faith. Through lectures and seminars, the Centre provides theological formation and education to a wide variety of audiences, lay and ordained.

There’s engagement with adjacent academic disciplines too; cultural issues; and theology in the public sphere. Friends and supporters gain open access to unique theological resources and exciting college events, much of it free of charge.

This is the place where the wealth of knowledge, experience and spiritual insight gained within this tradition is shared with the world around us.
