Journal of Praise and Worship 

The Journal of Praise & Worship is an interdisciplinary, open-access (no article processing charges), peer-reviewed journal published annually. Its purpose is to advance scholarship on the global phenomenon variously known as contemporary worship, praise and worship, and modern worship. The journal explores not only the musical forms commonly associated with these terms, but also the people, networks, and institutions involved; the practices, materials, and technologies that shape them; and the distinct theologies, ideologies, and logics through which Praise & Worship is understood and employed.

The journal publishes research from a variety of methodological and disciplinary approaches, including liturgical studies, religious and theological studies, music studies, media and performance studies, and other related fields.

In addition to the work of the editorial board, the project is led by co-editors Dr. Nelson Cowan (Samford University), Dr. Marcell Silva Steuernagel (51³Ô¹ÏÍøMethodist University), and Dr. Adam Perez (Belmont University) as well as the founding associate editors Dr. Monique Ingalls (Baylor University), Dr. Lester Ruth (Duke University), and Dr. Melanie Ross (Yale University).
