What exactly is Quadrum? The word itself is Latin in origin, meaning “square,” “foursquare,” or “that which is in proper order.” Our sincere desire is that the scholarship presented in this journal would be both “Foursquare” and “in proper order.” Quadrum is a scholarly journal intentionally designed to be both substantive and accessible. The content herein is meant, on the one hand, to highlight robust scholarship produced by scholars in our Foursquare family and it is, on the other hand, intended to be accessible to the laymen and academician alike. The preponderance of articles you will find will have been produced by Foursquare scholars for the Foursquare family and beyond. From time to time, select articles from contributors outside our denomination may appear in Quadrum. This fact, in some respects, is a reflection of our value and desire to be “interdenominational in spirit.” We are grateful to these contributors for their investment in our movement.
