by Don Martin Jr., Publisher and Editor Welcome to the Journal of Faith and War. This journal focuses on the innately spiritual nature of leadership in the formulation and execution of national security policies in the English-speaking nations of the world. Our era is increasingly characterized by religious skepticism, secularization and moral relativism in the West. Thus those who will govern, direct, educate, lead and inspire the defense and security forces of our nations need to integrate the truths of their faith into their judgments, decisions and actions. This journal aims to influence for good the faith basis of morally responsible leadership in regard to preparing for war, going to war, fighting wars, concluding wars, evaluating wars, and maintaining discipline and accountability among parties involved in planning, projecting or applying military force. It will examine national defense decisions, policies, and strategies as well as the leadership of military and security forces. JFW will address historical and contemporary situations that political and military leaders at all levels in our nations’ defense structures have confronted—or are confronting—in their decisions and relationships. Its focus on ethical leadership will include the development of leadership doctrine, teaching that doctrine in formal educational systems, and its practice at all levels. The Scope and Focus of the Journal are suggested by its title:
Principal editorial content will include the following: Major Topics
