Call for Papers – Ra’ah Journal (June 2026 Edition)

Ra’ah Journal invites academics, researchers, theologians, church practitioners, and scholars of socio-religious issues to submit their best manuscripts for publication in the June 2026 edition.

Ra’ah, derived from the Hebrew word ra’a (to shepherd), develops a scholarly vision that understands God’s mission as a calling to shepherd within social realities. Accordingly, the journal provides an academic platform for the production of relevant, critical, and transformative knowledge in response to the dynamics of contemporary society.

• Pastoral Theology

• Sociology of Christian Education

• Pastoral Counseling

• Psychology (particularly in religious contexts)

• Sociology of Religion

Articles may take the form of empirical research, theoretical studies, systematic literature reviews, or conceptual reflections that demonstrate scholarly originality and social relevance.

General Requirements

Manuscripts must be original works that have not been previously published and are not under review elsewhere. All submissions will undergo an objective peer-review process to ensure academic quality and scholarly integrity.

Important Dates

• Submission deadline: May 2026

• Review and revision process: April–May 2026

We warmly invite scholarly contributions that enrich socio-religious discourse and strengthen the praxis of shepherding within an ever-changing societal context.
