Christus Cultura Journal
The Journal of Christianity in the Social Sciences
Christian academics need a venue to present their research and personal reflections on the intersection of the faith and society to other believers in Christian higher education. This fact is especially true in the social sciences. Christus Cultura aims to meet that need and more.
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission at Christus Cultura is to explore and highlight in innovative, cutting edge ways the intersection of Christian faith and the human experience as expressed in the study of the social sciences, including history, political science, psychology, sociology, criminology, international studies, Christian and missionary studies, and much more.
VISION STATEMENT
To that end, contributors to this journal present original research and solicited items–from articles and essays to book reviews and commentaries–on issues important to the Christian life as it is experienced now, in the past, or could be experienced in the future. Our scope is intentionally broad, both in terms of geography and time, as well as in content, because we seek to provide readers with a rich mosaic of the ways in which the influence of a single man, a humble carpenter from Nazareth, has continued to shape the human experience, society, and culture in profound ways. It is our sincere desire that readers will find the journal rewarding and spiritually life-enriching and that the content presented will serve, whether in profound or subtle ways, as a vehicle of the Great Commission (Matthew 28:16-20).
