Welcome to Our Brand New Website

As the directors of the Text & Canon Institute at Phoenix Seminary, it’s our pleasure to welcome you to our brand-new website. In line with our mission, we’ve designed it to be a place with engaging content that illuminates the history of the world’s most amazing book, the Bible.

Here you’ll find new articles every month on subjects covering the textual history of the Bible, its canonization, translation, and more—all written by those with expertise in their fields. To help readers with different levels of knowledge, we’ve further organized articles as either beginner, intermediate, or advanced. So, whether you’re a layperson, a student, pastor, or teacher, you should be able to find what you need.

You can also learn about our upcoming events like Academic Colloquia and our Scribes & Scripture conferences. If you’re a student, you may also be interested in our TCI Fellowship, which mentors aspiring Christian academics and provides a generous scholarship for Phoenix Seminary’s ThM program.

Finally, if you want to receive new articles in your inbox and keep up to date with news and events, be sure to subscribe to our newsletter.

We hope this new resource inspires you to read and treasure the greatest book ever written.
