The Countercult Apologetics Journal will be an annual publication, scheduled for release (online) in January.
Currently, I am not concern about how you site your sources (MLA, APA, Turabian, Chicago Style), but please use one and stick with it throughout the article.
Below are ideas I have for this journal (kind of thrown together at this point).
Target Audience:
Pastor, teachers, missionaries.
Material:
Articles, book and article reviews, editorials.
Content:
1, Exegetical & theological articles
2. Book & article reviews: material written by evangelicals and/or non-Christian literature
3. Statisics on current growth rate, literature produced, missionary activity, etc. of cults and world religions.
4. News items: What is happening in the world of the non-Christian religions. Headline news items.
5. Reports from the field (Outreaches, etc.).
6. Announcements - conferences, published books, articles and audio specifically related to cults, the occult and world relgions.
Purpose:
To interact with literature produced by evangelicals and those in non-Christian religions. We'll have articles that hit
the basic theology of cults, occult and world religions and also articles that interact with current thought within
non-Christian religions (e.g. LDS apologists).
My hope is to equip the believer, keep these topics on the minds of God's people, and to challenge the unbeliever.
