Submit a manuscript

You can submit an MS Word, Libre Office, or RTF document. The text should be single-spaced. Use a 12-point font, preferably Times New Roman; employ italics rather than underlining for emphasis; and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points. Since there is a loss of resolution in embedded images, please also provide them as their own file, for production (if the manuscript is approved). If using non-standard fonts, please embed them in your document.

We follow the standard SBL guidelines with footnotes (SBL Handbook of Style 2nd ed.). We encourage you to use these output styles for Endnote or Zotero. You may also submit your bibliography as a Zotero/Endnote file.

Submission Preparation Checklist

All submissions must meet the following requirements.

1. The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another press for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
2. The submission file is in the Microsoft Word, RTF, or OpenDocument file format.
3. The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.
4. The Author affirms that all figures, pictures, or any other media used in this work are of their authorship, written permission was obtained for use in this project under a CC BY license, or they are already available in a proper CC license or equivalent.
5. All authors declare that they made a substantial contribution to the work and that they are accountable for the work and its published form. The authors gave proper credit to the work of others, both in citations and in acknowledgment of contributions.
6. Where available, stable URLs for the references have been provided (i.e., they don't include the school's login to a database). DOIs are used when available.
7. The author or all the authors in an edited work agree that the work, once accepted, will be published under CC BY 4.0 International license.
8. The authors declared any and all conflicts of interest to the editors. By this, we mean any relation with for-profit or not-for-profit third parties whose interests may be affected by the content of the manuscript. Disclosure represents a commitment to transparency and does not necessarily indicate a bias. If you are in doubt about whether to list a relationship/activity/interest, it is preferable that you do so.
9. The author(s) agree with the seven core doctrines of the Christian faith:
10. The Trinity: The one true God eternally exists as three Persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; one in nature, equal in glory, but distinct in relationships.
11. The full deity and full humanity of Christ.
12. The spiritual lostness of the human race.
13. The substitutionary atonement and bodily resurrection of Christ.
14. Salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.
15. The future physical return of Christ.
16. The authority and inerrancy of Scripture.
    

You should hear from us in about 20 days from manuscript submission, either explaining why Klisia may not be the best fit for your manuscript or with the confirmation that it was sent to a peer-reviewer. At all times, you will have a clear picture of where your manuscript is in our process, in the author portal.
