Eden has customers in every UK village, town and city. We serve the entire church, every denomination and expression of Christ centred faith.

Our story

From small beginnings to a being the leading online destination for Christian resources, and your shared Church technology provider.

We started small in 1999 and are now a team of 50+ based in the cathedral city of Chester, England. Our extensive product range of over 300,000 Christian books and resources, 25+ years of service and dependable delivery make us a trusted partner for tiny chapels, local congregations, multi site networks and schools.

Before eden.co.uk became a retailer, we were building some of the first websites for churches and charities. That instinct never left, and today it shapes everything we make.

From retail to renewal

Reinvested into shared tools for the church

Everyone needed better digital tools, but no single organisation could afford to build them alone. So we built a sustainable technology operation inside the life of the church. Connecting churches, charities, publishers and ministries into one ecosystem rather than scattered silos.

We Connect, Equip, & Multiply, stewarding what the church already has so it can flourish together.

Connect

Break down silos so ministries and individuals can discover one another.

Equip

Premium digital tools in one place, no building custom software from scratch.

Multiply

An improvement for one organisation instantly upgrades everyone else.

eden.co.uk sits alongside Christian360, Eden Interactive and Publish360 as part of one group, each serving a different need, all sharing the same infrastructure, values and mission.
