“At Moore College, each year the Bachelor of Divinity fourth year students have the opportunity to research and write a 6,000 word essay in Church History on some aspect of evangelicalism in Australia or Britain (post-1600).
The Church History Department first launched the online journal Integrity last year in order to share some of the quality essays written by our students with a broader audience.”
