What a gift builds
The Inheritance is the undergraduate theology journal of Patrick Henry College. It is edited entirely by students under the supervision of the endowed Chair of Theology, and it publishes one issue each semester written by students, alumni, and faculty.
It receives no institutional funding. Everything you see — the printed issue, the honoraria that let a student take the work seriously, the events that turn a journal into a conversation — exists because someone paid for it. That is the whole case.
We are finalising the giving route with the College. If you would like to give now, or you are a foundation evaluating a grant, please write to us directly.
Contact the editorsStudents, alumni, and faculty of Patrick Henry College. You do not need to be a theology major. What we ask for is an argument you are willing to defend, made carefully, with the sources actually read.
One issue is published each semester. Pitches and drafts are read by the student editorial team and reviewed under the supervision of the Chair of Theology. Contributors are paid an honorarium where funding allows.
The journal is run by students — editing, design, layout, and events. If you would rather build the thing than write for it, there is room for you.
