About Cross Shaped
A Christian formation platform exploring how biblical truth shapes the whole person — mind, heart, character, relationships and hope.
Why Cross Shaped exists
We are all being shaped by something: our beliefs, habits, relationships, culture and experiences. The question is not whether formation is happening, but what is shaping us.
Cross Shaped exists to help people become increasingly shaped by Christ. We welcome honest questions and believe faith and reason, conviction and humility, understanding and discipleship belong together.
Our resources bring truth, character and transformation together. We want people of every age to think clearly, live faithfully and follow Christ — with hope, curiosity and care for one another.
The Cross Shaped Team
Writers · Thinkers · Learners · Christians
We're a group of Christians based in the UK. Together we write about faith and explore what it means to follow Christ in every part of life.
Common Questions
Is this a church or ministry?
No. Cross Shaped is a Christian formation platform, not a local church or denominational body. We are a group of Christians who welcome honest questions and want to help people explore faith thoughtfully.
Are you theologians?
Not formally. We're writers and thinkers who read widely and think carefully. We try to engage seriously with the best versions of opposing arguments, not strawmen. We welcome correction and dialogue.
Can I submit a guest post?
Yes. We welcome thoughtful, honest contributions that engage seriously with their subject and help readers think clearly, live faithfully and follow Christ.
What tradition are you writing from?
Broadly Protestant/evangelical, though we draw from across the Christian tradition. C.S. Lewis, Alvin Plantinga, Tim Keller, and N.T. Wright are all influences.
