Language, Power and Baptist missionaries- Bringing the Reformation through Irish Schools- An interview with Dr Karina Bénazech Wendling
<p>This episode is an interview with Dr Karina Bénazech Wendling about the subject she will be addressing at the Irish Baptist Historical Society on Thursday 13th May 2025 at 5:45pm </p><p>This lecture will dive into the long and complex history of Gaelic suppression in Ireland—from medieval laws designed to crush Irish culture, to the radical shift brought by Baptist missionary movements determined to bring the Bible to Irish-speaking Catholics in their native tongue. Drawing from rare archival material spanning Oxford, Dublin, and the Vatican, our speaker reveals how unlikely religious alliances and colonial strategies reshaped the relationship between faith, identity, and language in Ireland. Discover how the Irish language—once seen as rebellious—became a tool for conversion and cultural negotiation, and how Baptist innovations opened the way for a new appreciation of the Irish language by Protestants, at least in Ireland. </p><p> <strong>Karina Bénazech Wendling</strong> is Associate Professor at the University of Lorraine and a member of IDEA research team, as well as Associate Researcher at LEM-CNRS. Since she got her PhD in contemporary history from PSL prepared at EPHE/GSRL-CNRS, she has been working on a postdoctoral project entitled ‘Emancipation and education in the transatlantic space: circulation of ideas and struggles for influence, 18th-19th century,’ prepared under the direction of Hubert Bost, Director of Studies at EPHE-PSL. <a href="">She has published several articles in international journals and has two forthcoming books: </a>Converting Ireland: religious education, language and nationalism, Manchester University Press, and De la Bible au soupérisme: éducation, missions protestantes et nationalisme en Irlande au premier XIXe siècle, Honoré Champion. She also manages the MIRCOM research project, which inverstigates the role of the Jewish and Protestant minorities in redefining national identities in France, Ireland and Italy (1789-1948).</p>

When Gentry get Baptised- The Story of Brannockstown Baptist Church- Interview with Richard Blayney
Brannockstown Baptist Church has a long and rich history. It was founded around 1870 by John La Touche, master of the Harristown estate (the La Touches were wealthy and influential aristocrats in France until the Huguenot expulsion). John La Touche became a Christian and was baptised by the well-known Rev. C. H. Spurgeon at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London. Wishing to share the good news of Jesus and call people to follow him, John gathered a small congregation, which in its infancy met in a cottage in the village. In 1882 a gothic chapel of limestone and red sandstone was erected, followed in due course by the manse next door. John La Touche taught and cared for the church family, and later made provisions for the continuation of the church following his death in 1904. This episode interviews the current pastor of Brannockstown, Richard Blayney, about the rich history of the church. Richard is married to Steph, and they have three children. He comes from Coleraine and went to Brannockstown following studies at the Irish Baptist College. A short presentation on the history of the church by Richard Blayney was also recorded on the occasion of the church’s 150th anniversary for the Irish Baptist Historical Society and can be viewed at https://youtu.be/GU7pZ4Px0ec
