The Wade Center's journal VII has been an ongoing source of valuable scholarship since its inception in 1980. Co-founded by Clyde S. Kilby, Barbara Reynolds and Beatrice Batson, this peer-reviewed academic journal encourages critical assessment of the Wade authors’ works as well as greater understanding of their thought and lives.
Providing opportunities for continuing scholarship and education on the lives and the works of the seven Wade authors is integral to the Wade Center’s mission, and is achieved, in part, through a number of varied publications.
