Dr. Chris Price, Colby Community College history instructor, authored an article that
will be published in an upcoming issue of “Baptist History & Heritage.” It is the
second time the journal has published his work.
His article, “Spreading American Values and the Gospel: North Dakota Baptists in
the Gilded Age and Progressive Era,” will appear in the fall 2015 edition scheduled
for release in late December.
The “Baptist History & Heritage Journal,” a peer-reviewed academic journal, is a
publication of the Baptist History & Heritage Society. Contributors include Baptist
and religious historians, as well as clergy and lay persons.
Price’s article is a revision of a presentation he gave at the 2014 Baptist History
& Heritage Society’s annual conference at Sioux Falls Seminary in South Dakota. The
paper was based on his dissertation research at the University of North Dakota.
In addition to two works appearing in “Baptist History & Heritage,” Price has had
two book reviews featured in other peer-reviewed journals. In 2012, his book, “The
Old Church on Walnut Street: A Story of Immigrants and Evangelicals,” was published
by the Grand Forks Community Land Trust.
Price is in his third year teaching at Colby Community College. The Boomer, W.Va.,
native holds a Doctor of Arts in history from the University of North Dakota; a master’s
degree in history from Marshall University; and a Bachelor of Arts in history and
government from West Virginia University Institute of Technology.
