Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge (Great Britain)

The Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, usually known as SPCK, is a UK-based Christian charity and publisher founded in 1698 by Thomas Bray. From its earliest years, it focused on distributing religious literature and encouraging education, especially through charity schools and affordable books.

Over time, SPCK became one of the best-known Anglican publishing and mission organizations in Britain. Its work extended beyond the UK through the circulation of Bibles, prayer books, and other Christian materials, and its long history links it to major developments in religious publishing and education.

Today, SPCK is still active as a Christian publisher and charity. It is known for producing books on faith, theology, spirituality, and Christian living, while continuing the broader mission that shaped its founding more than 300 years ago.
