Professors from around the world will gather at the Sixth Annual Christian Legal Scholars’ Symposium to discuss what it means to be a Christian legal scholar and to examine the implications that a Christian worldview has on the teaching and practice of law.

The Symposium will begin Friday, October 10 at noon with a luncheon address on “The Christian Vocation of the Legal Scholar.” After lunch, a panel of international law professors will share stories about the intersection of their faith and their academic and legal careers, illustrating the depth and breadth of God’s global work in and through the law. The remainder of Friday afternoon and a full session Saturday morning will be devoted to Christian jurisprudence, beginning with an address by renowned political philosopher J. Budziszewski, followed by panels on the implications of jurisprudence for religious freedom issues and the culture of life.

The Christian Scholars’ Symposium is a part of the Christian Legal Society Global Convocation (October 9-12).
