There are more than 225,000 lawyers and law students in the UK today. Together, the legal profession provides the code and process for the order and stability of our society. They are a key group which works with people often at the sharp end of life, seeking to fix what is broken, and restore hope that has been lost.
The LCF exists as a fellowship because of a collective imagination about the work of a Christian lawyer, and through a shared sense of responsibility for the communication of the Gospel in and through the legal profession.The LCF is a membership organisation, because its Gospel mission is realised by its members: Christian Lawyers communicating the whole Gospel about Jesus Christ.
The whole of scripture points to Christ, whose life, death, burial and resurrection provide the only way to be forgiven by God and to enjoy life in all its fullness. The familiar Micah 6:8 text inspires our fellowship with its simple three-fold imperative, which moves Christian lawyers to retell the Jesus story through the medium of the legal profession.
