CrossCurrents is a quarterly academic journal published by the Association for Public Religion and Intellectual Life (before 1990, it was published by Convergence). It has been published continuously since 1950, and is now published as a peer-reviewed, public-facing scholarly journal.

The journal began with the vision of Joseph Cunneen, a Catholic soldier in General Patton's army. Taking advantage of the GI Bill after WWII, Cunneen wanted to bring European religious thinking to the United States. As a result, the journal became committed to post-Holocaust theology and Jewish-Christian relations.[1]

In time, it would expand to multiple religious traditions, including Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Indigenous traditions. It also remained committed to issues of social justice, publishing feminist theology in the 1960s (especially Rosemary Radford Ruether and Elisabeth Schüssler-Fiorenza), Black theology in the 1970s (especially James Cone), and was one of the first English-language journals to publish work of the Latin American Liberation Theology movement.

According to the journal's instructions for authors on the Wiley website, "CrossCurrents connects the wisdom of the heart with the life of the mind and the experiences of the body. The journal is operated through its parent organization, the Association for Public Religion and Intellectual Life (APRIL), an interreligious network of academics, activists, artists, and community leaders seeking to engage the many ways religion meets the public. Contributions to the journal exist at the nexus of religion, education, the arts, and social justice. Work in the journal is supplemented by our online magazine, The Commons.)"</ref>
