Maddie Abbott

Maddie Abbott is the daughter of a Methodist minister and a current student at Princeton Theological Seminary. A former political campaigner, tech industry manager, middle school math teacher, and Hollywood assistant, Maddie is interested in how faith intersects with all kinds of things— including politics. After working on campaigns from 2016-2020, Maddie decided to leave the political world behind and to focus instead on facilitating balanced, biblical conversations about controversial topics. Since then she’s led successful political Bible studies and discussion groups at multiple churches using her own curriculum. She developed The Abortion Challenge materials after leading those groups and she hopes you’ll find them useful. If you’d like to book Maddie to lead a discussion group in your Christian community, or if you’d like to hire her to consult, reach out!
