The Westminster Society. Volume One. "We Confess." This volume contains peer-reviewed articles written by ministers in the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. Volume one, "We Confess," is centered around the theme of the Westminster Confession of Faith; its history, purpose, and usage as the subordinate confessional standards of Reformed churches. Contributing authors are ministers in the EPC. The Westminster Society exists as a networking group within the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. Devised originally as a forum in which ministers, elders, and laypersons could talk together about theology and church life, the Westminster Society desires to keep our denominational conversations centered around Scripture, as well as framed within the boundaries of our confessional standards. It is not a commissioned organization, mission, or committee of any court within the EPC. The Society holds a high view of the authority and infallibility of Scripture, as well as an ardent esteem for our subordinate standards. It encourages fellowship and unity in and among members of the EPC. Our motto, “ex animo” is the Latin phrase which means “from the heart.” This implies that we hope to confess and profess our doctrine sincerely and humbly as believers. The Westminster Society Journal, the publication of the Society, exists to encourage and stimulate theological discussion and peer-reviewed scholarly work within and among the ministers of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. The Society will provide annual networking lunch opportunities at our General Assemblies for our members and visitors to gather around productive, in-depth theological conversations. More importantly, we hope to deepen friendships and foster professional collegiality among our ministers. Additionally, we seek to advocate for a strong view of the implementation and usage of our confessional standards in our churches and church courts. We hope to provide an annual print journal at each General Assembly through which we can encourage scholarship, critical thinking, and pastoral insight. Membership in the society is open to all EPC ministers and members.
