Midsummer Update

The NABPR expresses appreciation to Gardner-Webb University for hosting the 2023 May Meeting in Boiling Springs, NC. All sessions, plenaries, and meals were held in a single building, the Tucker Student Union, which was tremendously convenient. One highlight from this year's meeting was the presentation of the Perspectives in Religious Studies Festschrift to Dr. Sharyn Dowd. We were grateful for her presence, her long record of support for the NABPR and Baptist higher education, and her inspiring remarks at the meeting. Read More ›

Sidebar

The National Association of Baptist Professors of Religion is a community of teaching scholars. Most members teach at Baptist-affiliated schools, colleges, and seminaries, but members also hail from a wide range of institutions in the United States, Canada, and abroad, including church-related and state-supported schools. The history of the association is woven into the changing religious culture of the United States…The immediate predecessor of the NABPR was a group of Baptist teaching scholars in the Southeast who, in 1972 founded a journal, Perspectives in Religious Studies, laying a foundation of publications that continues to identify the work of the Association.
