The Research and Publication Committee will be the judges, and the winning essay will be published in an upcoming issue of the American Baptist Quarterly.
Entries should be no more than 25 pages (excluding notes) and must be double spaced in accordance with the Chicago manual of Style. Send entries to abhs@abhsarchives.org. The deadline for the next award is September 1, 2019. See email blast for more information.
