Historian Timothy S. Lee will be the next general editor of the Journal of Discipliana, the scholarly journal of study for the Disciples of Christ and the broader Stone-Campbell movement. Lee will take over from Mark Toulouse who helped relaunch the 82-year-old publication in 2021 after a seven-year hiatus.
Lee is currently an associate professor of the history of Christianity at Brite Divinity School and director of the school’s Asian/Asian American and Pacific Islander Church Studies Program. He has served as second vice moderator for the Disciples of Christ and is the author of the 2010 book Born Again: Evangelicalism in Korea.
In a statement, Lee said he was excited for the opportunity to lead the journal. “I have long regarded JoD . . . the preeminent scholarly journal of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ),” he said.
