About the Journal

Theophron is a tri-annual academic journal dedicated to rigorous Christian scholarship in the humanities, particularly in the fields of philosophy, biblical studies, theology, and history. Through publishing articles and book reviews from scholars across programs and institutions, we leverage the marketplace of ideas to both galvanize academic growth and draw nearer to God through intellectual contemplation. We welcome submissions from any degree program (undergraduates included), as we maintain that outstanding scholarship is not contingent upon certain degree classifications. Our double-blind peer review process, however, evaluates all submissions with equally stringent guidelines. In doing so, we uphold a standard of excellence for all rising and existing scholars. 

To bridge the gap between Christian academia and non-academics, we additionally publish reflections and poetry from individuals outside of the academic study of religion and Christianity. Placing this material in conversation with the academic sections of the journal emphasizes the universality of intellectual pursuit—that knowing God is a journey involving all, regardless of occupation.
