Our Mission

To Grow in Wisdom and Proclaim Jesus

Ridley Hall is a centre of Christian learning, scholarship, and formation in the heart of Cambridge. We strive to cultivate a fertile ground for seeking biblical wisdom for all of life and ministry.

Wisdom, at its heart, is mobilised knowledge. At Ridley, this looks like a deep commitment to both rigorous academic growth and robust practical application. At our core is a profound love for God, a yearning for His presence, as well as a passion to worship, know, and serve Him with all our hearts, souls, and minds.

When you choose Ridley, you join a community dedicated to discovering God's truth, bringing you closer to Him, transforming you with His love, and equipping you to impact the world for His Kingdom.

The people who study at Ridley range in age and come to us from a wide variety of backgrounds and contexts. Carpenters train side by side with police officers, accountants, lawyers, television executives, teachers, and youth workers. Whatever your age, professional background or previous level of academic study, you will be warmly welcomed and helped to flourish at Ridley.

Dis(re)membered and Unaccounted For

Isabelle Hamely

Concubines, are shadowy women whose presence weaves in and out of narratives of violence and conflict. Most of them are unnamed and appear simply in genealogies and harem lists. Their exact legal status is unknown; they stand between primary wives and slave-wives, seemingly legitimate yet treated with little regard or protection. This article examines the narrative patterns surrounding them.

"Ridley Hall totally laid the foundation for everything I now do in the Middle East."
