Lawyers urged to seek new direction
Many Christian lawyers are
despairing over the direction the law is taking,
but find it hard to know
what the alternative is. Relational Justice is
being put forward as a radical
answer at a conference at the Law Society on
31 March 1999. Of
Relational Justice Lord Woolf has said 'this could be
the radical new approach
which is needed'.
A similar conference run
by the Lawyers' Christian Fellowship in Aberdeen
last year received considerable
acclaim. As a result Judge Alan Hitching
is encouraging lawyers in
London to grasp the opportunity to hear this
important material.
Three speakers who took part
in the Aberdeen conference, including Dr
Michael Schluter of the
Jubilee Centre, will again be making presentations.
Their aim will be to establish
some biblical principles of justice and
apply them to areas of criminal
and civil law.
The conference jointly organised
by the Lawyers Christian Fellowship and
the Jubilee Centre will
take place between 2pm and 6.15pm on 31 March, at
the Law Society. The
cost is £40. For further details and to book contact
