    <![CDATA[<p>Being a Christian lawyer is possible, but not easy.</p><p>Law professor Michael Schutt believes that although there are significant obstacles, Christians belong in the legal profession and should regard it as a sacred calling. The Christian God is, after all, a God concerned with justice, both divine and human. However, the pathway beginning with law school and leading to the daily demands of practice doesn't provide much guidance for pursuing law as a Christian calling. Schutt offers this book as a vital resource for reconceiving the theoretical foundations of law and gives practical guidance for maintaining integrity within a challenging profession. A hopeful and practical book for law students and those serving in the legal profession.</p><br/><strong>Market/Audience</strong>&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Lawyers&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Students and professors of law&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;<br/><strong>Endorsements</strong><br/><p>&quot;Mike Schutt has written a very accessible account of what it should mean for a Christian to study and practice law. Neither law school nor the practice of law directly offers sincere Christians an open door to bring their faith into their profession. But Mike shows why Christian integrity demands more than getting good grades and billing lots of hours. He demonstrates why and how bringing our confession of Christ's lordship into the law is vitally important.&quot;   C. SCOTT PRYOR, Regent University School of Law</p><br/><strong>Features and Benefits</strong>&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Written by a practicing lawyer who also teaches law students&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Gives advice for meeting the daily practical challenges of the legal profession&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Presents the legal profession as a Christian calling, while acknowledging the real challenges that still exist&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;]]>
