English Translations of Christian Scholarship - Princeton Theological Seminary

There is an abundance of Christian scholarship written in other languages that has yet to be engaged by the anglophone world. OMSC@PTS wants to amplify these voices for the benefit of the world Christian movement. This initiative will invest in the professional translation of articles and essays from Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Oceania from any field in the theological curriculum. Our goal is to welcome new colleagues to the table and convene new conversations that represent the world church in all of its diversity.

Since announcing our Christian Scholarship Translations initiative in 2021, OMSC has commissioned several essays to be translated into English from Portuguese (Brazil), Chinese, Greek, Spanish, and Japanese. As these translations are completed, they will be published in upcoming issues of the International Bulletin of Mission Research. We are excited to be able to amplify their voice and research for a wider audience.
