The McMaster Journal of Theology and Ministry is an electronic and print journal that seeks to provide pastors, educators, and interested lay persons with the fruits of theological, biblical, and professional studies in an accessible form. Published by McMaster Divinity College in Hamilton, Ontario, it continues the heritage of scholarly inquiry and theological dialogue represented by the College’s previous print publications: the Theological Bulletin, Theodolite,
and the McMaster Journal of Theology. Print versions of the Journal will be available from Wipf & Stock every September for the previous academic year, beginning with the 2007-2008 volume.
