Welcome to the Theology & Ethics podcast! In this episode, the KC team (and guest Tim Milosch) discuss just war theory, and whether Christians have any biblical basis for supporting a just war.

Tim Milosch is the Interim Director of Digital Learning and an adjunct faculty member in the Political Science Department at Biola University. He completed his doctoral studies at Claremont Graduate University where he did research on the effects of political culture on international crises. He currently teaches courses on international affairs and national security and writes about those subjects even more on Substack at Tim Talks Politics.
