This episode explore the historical foundations and modern applications of Protestant Dissenting identity, a tradition defined by its independence from state control. Originating from the 1662 Act of Uniformity, this movement prioritises the authority of Scripture and liberty of conscience over hierarchical or political mandates. The texts clarify that Dissenters maintain a principled critique of the Church of England as a state institution while continuing to respect Anglican believers as fellow Christians. This identity manifests in simple, Word-centred worship and a servant-hearted leadership model that avoids performance in favour of pastoral care. Ultimately, the documents describe a faith that is locally governed, courageous in its convictions, and committed to biblical fidelity regardless of social or political pressure.

Welcome to Know Surrender—a podcast about learning what it truly means to surrender to Jesus Christ. Not in defeat, but in devotion. Here we explore scripture, history, and the call to follow Christ with heart, mind, and life. To know surrender… is to know Him.
