Ready to publish with Open Christian Press? Choose the appropriate pathway for journal articles, books, and monographs.
Open Christian Press publishes selected research reports, policy studies, institutional publications, and conference proceedings that demonstrate intellectual value, ethical integrity, methodological credibility, and relevance to academic, professional, church, policy, or public audiences.
Eligible projects should demonstrate:
a clearly defined purpose and readership;
credible evidence, research, or conference foundations;
transparent methods or selection procedures;
accurate citation and contributor recognition;
appropriate ethical and legal compliance;
declared funding and conflicts of interest;
permission for third-party materials;
institutional approval where applicable.
Proceedings should present a coherent scholarly or professional contribution rather than an unedited collection of presentations.
Proposal and Assessment
The Press evaluates scope, quality, governance, feasibility, and alignment.
Review and Revision
The project undergoes the agreed peer, expert, editorial, institutional, or conference review process.
Production and Publication
Approved works proceed through editing, design, proofreading, metadata preparation, and publication.
Universities, research centres, scholarly associations, ministries, conference organisers, and professional bodies may propose reports, proceedings, policy studies, or institutional publications.
Projects are governed by a written agreement defining editorial responsibility, review classification, schedule, costs, rights, identifiers, deliverables, and long-term stewardship.
Payment for production or publishing services does not guarantee acceptance or influence editorial decisions.
