The discipline of theology uses Chicago Style of citation, a style popularized in a style book by Kate Turabian. Therefore, Chicago Style became known as Turabian Style. This style is different from other disciplines like APA and MLA in that it uses footnotes for citations rather than in-text citations. The ORU School of Theology has a style manual that follows the Turabian/Chicago Style. For the most part there is no difference, however, schools often have in-house standards for things like margins and heading styles that have nothing to do with Turabian.

Turabian uses one format for the footnote and another for the bibliography. Pay attention to the differences in the name order between footnotes to bibliography entries. Also note the punctuation is different.

• Book and journal titles are always in italics.
• Article and dissertation titles are in quotes.
• In titles, all major words are capitalized.

This guide provides a few of the most common types of citations. To see more extensive lists, click on the Turabian logo at the top of this section or view the opens new windowChicago Manual of Style Contents. The examples below are taken from sections of the opens new windowCitation Quick Guide.
