ABOUT DICTUM
Dictum was founded in 2018 by Julia Cameron, who is now its senior editor. We have four lists:
1. 'Dictum Essentials': a few core titles: modern classics for churches, agencies, and conference bookstalls.
2. Books on Oxford and Cambridge.
3. Unique angles on John Stott's ministry.
4. List Four, with titles which do not fall into the above categories.
We also carry some titles written or edited by Julia Cameron.
For individual or bulk purchases, head to www.churchbooks.co.uk (Europe) or www.goodread.store (USA). Books may be purchased through any bookshop.
For bulk orders: If you are planning ahead for an event, let us know if you would like to feature your logo and a description of your ministry at the front of books purchased. We are here to help, and to make it easy for you to receive these books.
Dictum works in partnership with EFAC Global, to extend the reach of its books in the West and in the Global South. The Evangelical Fellowship in the Anglican Communion (EFAC) was founded by John Stott in 1961.
The EFAC / Dictum partnership began in 2019, and the current range of books began to take shape. Several titles were transferred from the Lausanne Movement, which had closed its publishing a few months earlier. Ebooks of the whole Dictum library were created in the Spring of 2023. The initiative to make these available at no cost in countries where the church has fewer resources was first launched at Gafcon in Kigali in April that year.
In the Autumn of 2023, Dictum will publish The Lausanne Legacy: Landmarks in Global Mission with the Lausanne Movement, in preparation for the Fourth Lausanne Congress, to be held in Seoul in September 2024. This partnership with Lausanne will further strengthen Dictum's reach in sharing ebooks at no cost where the church has fewer resources.
Julia Cameron gained her MA from Aberdeen University. She led communications and publishing endeavours for IFES, OMF International, and the Third Lausanne Congress, then served until 2018 as Director of Publishing for the Lausanne Movement. She combines leadership of Dictum with being honorary Director of Publishing for EFAC.
Julia is an editor and writer, and a contributor to the Oxford DNB. She is active as a Fellow of the RSA; and is a member of St Ebbe's Church, Oxford.
