Seymour Press, based in Lanham, Maryland, was founded in 2012 as an extension of a broader educational and archival vision associated with the William Joseph Seymour Foundation and rooted in the legacy of William Joseph Seymour and the ongoing work of the Pentecostal and renewal movements. Since its inception, the press has focused on publishing high-quality Christian resources for scholars, pastors, church leaders, and general readers who appreciate thoughtful writing representing a range of Christian perspectives, with an emphasis on faith, theology, and contemporary Christian life and culture. Since its founding, Seymour Press has provided high-quality Christian resources authored by both emerging and established writers within the renewal faith community. Over time, it has grown from a small independent press into a trusted publishing presence committed to serving the academy, the church, and the wider Christian community.

From its beginning, Seymour Press has sought to honor the power of the written word as a means of preserving history, nurturing spiritual formation, and equipping future generations. One of its major missions is highlighting marginalized perspectives—particularly African American, Pan-African, and women’s contributions—within Pentecostalism and the broader Renewal Christian tradition. Through carefully selected publications, the press continues the tradition of Christian publishing by bringing together scholarly excellence, practical ministry insight, and a commitment to the renewal of the church.

Today, Seymour Press publishes resources in print, digital, and audio formats, making them accessible to pastors, scholars, students, ministry leaders, and readers worldwide. It continues its legacy under executive editor Dr. Estrelda Alexander and an editorial board composed of prominent theologians and ministry leaders across various institutions.
