Ra'ah: Journal of Sociology of Religion
Ra’ah Journal is a peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to advancing scholarly discourse in the fields of social and religious studies. The journal situates its intellectual contribution within interdisciplinary and contextual frameworks, with particular emphasis on Christian leadership, Pastoral Theology, Missiology, Christian Psychology, and congregational empowerment in contemporary society. The journal promotes rigorous academic inquiry that engages theological reflection with empirical social realities. It welcomes original research articles employing qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-method approaches, as well as systematic and critical literature reviews that demonstrate conceptual clarity, methodological robustness, and theoretical contribution. Ra’ah Journal seeks to publish works that: • explore the dynamics of Christian leadership within ecclesial and societal contexts; • develop contextual and constructive approaches in Pastoral Theology and Missiology; • examine psychological dimensions of faith, spirituality, and Christian formation; • analyze models of congregational empowerment and community transformation; • integrate interdisciplinary perspectives in addressing contemporary social and religious issues. By fostering dialogue between theology and the social sciences, Ra’ah Journal aims to contribute to the development of contextual scholarship, strengthen theoretical foundations, and offer practical implications for faith communities and wider society.
