Law studies and law practice present psychological, emotional,
ethical, and other challenges that test the faith of law students
and lawyers. Failures in faith can produce doubt, fear, anxiety,
and even depression, substance abuse, and burnout. Law studies and
law practice, like other worthwhile yet challenging endeavors,
force law students and lawyers to define and commit to articles of
faith. This guide helps law students and lawyers connect law
studies and practice to faith, to give pursuit of a law career its
greatest meaning. The guide illustrates how law students and
lawyers develop in faith, passing through moral fields to discover
and embrace a transcendent law practice--one that blesses the
lawyer and lawyer's family while supporting and serving the
flourishing of others. By footnoting the guide with Bible verses,
the author shows law students and lawyers how closely law study and
law practice are to faith, and how traditional forms of faith can
guide and support a law student and lawyer in professional
development. Even those who do not sense law studies and law
practice to be spiritual pursuits can benefit from this unique and
thought-provoking text. Chapters include: Introduction: Law as an
Expression of Faith (Morality, Faith, Redemption, Transformation);
Chapter 1: Law Studies: Challenges Strengthening Faith (Belief,
Obedience, Honesty, Truth); Chapter 2: Law Knowledge: Faith at
Law's Foundations (Love, Covenant, Provision, Community); Chapter
3: Law Skills: Faith Informing Services (Reason, Relationship,
Counsel, Discernment); Chapter 4: Law Identity: Becoming a Lawyer
of Faith (Calling, Character, Fitness, Responsibility); Chapter 5:
Law Practice: The Demonstration of Faith (Service, Stewardship,
Diligence, Charity); Conclusion: Faithful Professionals; Suggested
