Our world has been experiencing significant changes in every field of knowledge. The highly sophisticated means of communication have promoted great impacts, particularly regarding access to up-to-date and relevant information.  
The need for constant improvement is undeniable, and the scientific media in particular could not cannot keep up to date.
It is for this reason that we are pleased to present in this number of INTERAÇÕES not only a range of relevant articles and communications for the area of Religious Studies and Theology, but also, aligned with this need for updating, to communicate that from this number on we are assuming the publication model called Ahead of print. This system comprises publishing articles as soon as they have been evaluated and approved by the reviewers, without the need to wait for all the articles of an issue to be approved, and only then launch an edition.
The editorial team of INTERAÇÕES wishes to all readers that the reflections proposed here will lead to good reflections, debates, and the advancement of academic work in the Religious Studies and Theology area. Enjoy your reading!
