All submitted manuscripts undergo a rigorous double-blind review process conducted by qualified reviewers.

Peada' from the root word ada' means teaching or doctrine; peada' means advice or guidance. Advice is understood as a good teaching or lesson. The reason is that the concept of peada' boils down to character education, which is the core of parental education for children or the younger generation in general in the life of the Toraja people. Authentic evidence in Toraja society is londe (rhymes) in various types, including types of advice rhymes used in educating the younger generation in everyday life. In the context of Christianity, the Book of Proverbs is translated as Sarambu Peada'. Sarambu Peada' which is aimed especially at young people, teaches that true wisdom cannot be obtained outside of God. Wisdom helps to distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong, divine perspective or human perspective (cf. Proverbs 1:2-7). Sarambu Peada' contains things that are easy to do without a time limit. Either connotatively or denotatively, the meaning of peada' always leads to wisdom (kakinaan). Jesus, who is the Great Teacher, besides teaching knowledge to fill the hearts and minds of the disciples, also using his life as the fruit of His teaching to strengthen and firm the believers. Therefore, the true peada' is only found in Christ. It is in this context that the Peada' Journal exists to accommodate articles and research from Christian scholars, thereby becoming a source of knowledge that can be taught or learned, and ultimately generating wisdom in managing a life that glorifies God.
