Re-examining the Identity and Values of the Christian Business Academy Review

Abstract

To inform its readership and potential contributors, this paper revisits and builds on the work of Dulaney’s (2014) study of the Christian Business Academy Review (CBAR). In this article, the researchers analyze CBAR titles and abstracts and titles from the Academy of Management Learning and Education (AMLE) for the period from 2014 to 2023 and compare those results to Dulaney’s original findings. To further name the specific discourse of the journal, the researchers conducted a thematic analysis of the CBAR’s abstracts. The results of this study show the CBAR to be a dynamic and growing venue for both single and multiple authors to engage in the sharing of ideas and resources related to the teaching of a great variety of business topics from a Christian worldview and to college teaching as a profession. Perhaps most importantly, the CBAR has remained true to its stated purpose.
