Today’s release of the Spring 2022 issue of Eikon: A Journal for Biblical Anthropology marks the beginning of its fourth year in publication. The topic for this seventh issue of Eikon is the family. While providing cultural analysis and historical perspective, we hope that this issue brings renewed appreciation for the most basic institution of civilization and God’s instrument of human flourishing — the family. Like all past issues, the Spring 2022 Eikon is available for free in digital format at our website. Print copies are also available for purchase.
