description: Journal of Faith in the Academic Profession Annual Report: July 22, 2022 - July 22, 2024 Introduction The Journal of Faith in the Academic Profession is committed to exploring the intersection of faith and academics. Since its inception on July 22, 2022, the journal has aimed to foster a deeper understanding of how faith can be integrated into various academic disciplines. This annual report provides an overview of the journal's progress over the past two years, highlighting article downloads, engagement metrics, and insights gathered from our readership.
