Confessional Presbyterian News: v19 in production and back issue sale |
|
CPJ 19. 2023's volume 19 of The Confessional Presbyterian, whose theme is the PCA at 50, is due to ship at the end of the month, ahead of the anticipated date. If you have subscribed or ordered this issue, it should be available and in the mail by mid February. A list of the contents is below. A reminder that volumes 18 and 17 are in print and available at the GPTS store, which took the journal under its wing in 2021 as publisher which ensures its publication well into the future. If you have not done so, to sign up for a regular subscription for future issues starting with v19, see this link. The recurring subscriptions at the old cpjournal site (now the back issue site for issues prior to v17) did not transfer to GPTS’s system, so if you have not already done so, see that link to ensure a regular auto renewed subscription. Note that GPTS is updating their website in February, so you may need to browse to the right locations if the above links change.
Back Issue Sale. Issues prior to v17 that are in print are available at the original cpjournal.com store. There is a 20% off coupon (Knox) good on orders through the end of January. Volumes 1, 5, 8, and 10, are out of print, soon to be joined by volume 2. Volume 2 is only available in the seven or less remaining 12 issue bundle offer. Discount does not apply to bundle offers.
Call for Papers. There is a call for papers for the 2024 v20 issue. The cover theme is William Perkins. See here. As always, your interest makes this premier print journal of confessional Presbyterian Reformed theology & practice possible. Thank you!
