The Intersection of Christianity & the Law

On Thursday, November 20, from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. in Room A180, Widener Law Commonwealth will host a continuing legal education program examining The Intersection of Christianity & the Law. Drawing from the Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct, speakers will explore how moral and ethical considerations intersect with a lawyer’s duties to clients, to the legal system, and to personal conscience. The discussion will consider questions such as: • How can faith inform a lawyer’s sense of justice and public service? • In what ways might moral or spiritual beliefs guide ethical decision-making? • Where are the boundaries between personal conviction and professional obligation?

Featured Speakers: • The Honorable P. Kevin Brobson ’95, Justice, Supreme Court of Pennsylvania • The Honorable Eric G. Bruggink, Judge, United States Court of Federal Claims, Washington, D.C. • Michael Moreland, Professor of Law, Villanova Law School, and Director, Eleanor H. McCullen Center for Law, Religion and Public Policy • Hannah M. Schroer, Esq., Barley Snyder; President, St. Thomas More Society of Central Pennsylvania

Moderated by: • Anton Sorkin, Director of Law Student Ministries at Christian Legal Society; Affiliate Professor, Trinity Law School
