Paul Williams is behind the hugely influential ‘Blogging Theology’ social media platforms (primarily YouTube). A former evangelical Christian, Williams converted to Islam and started engaging in debates with people of differing creeds. He still frequents Speakers’ Corner in Hyde Park but much of his activity has now moved online. His YouTube channel invites scholars and intellectuals to discuss their various areas of expertize. His polite and sincere manner in understanding and presenting these views has enabled him to build a significant following. In 2024, Williams founded Blogging Theology Academy in collaboration with philosopher Hasan Spiker. This online learning platform offers instruction in both the Islamic and Western philosophical and theological traditions, and features expert guest lecturers, many of whom are past contributors to the Blogging Theology channel.
