In the fifty years of publication since this vision was initiated, Andrews University Seminary Studies (AUSS) has published articles by Adventist, Catholic, Evangelical, and Jewish scholars throughout the world.

A refereed journal, AUSS provides a scholarly venue, within the context of biblical faith, for the presentation of research in the area of religious and biblical studies. Specifically, AUSS publishes research articles, dissertation abstracts, and book reviews on the following topics: biblical archaeology and the history of antiquity; Hebrew Bible; New Testament; church history of all periods; historical, biblical, systematic, and philosophical theology; ethics; history of religions; and mission. Selected research articles on ministry and Christian education may also be included. (Link)

The JACL is published twice a year under the auspices of the Christian Leadership Center at Andrews University, a Seventh-day Adventist institution.

The purposes of the JRCE are (1) to stimulate inquiry among scholars of Christian education on topics of common interest, (2) to serve as a clearinghouse for the organization and diffusion of emerging research on the Christian school, and (3) to communicate research findings that inform Christian educators as well as the wider society.
