10 REASONS WHY A STUDENT SHOULD JOIN CHRISTIAN LEGAL SOCIETY
To honor the Lord in law school by associating publicly with a national grassroots
network of Christian lawyers and law students, committed to proclaiming, loving
and serving Jesus Christ, through all we do and say in the practice of law,
and advocating biblical conflict reconciliation, public justice, religious freedom
and the sanctity of human life.
To associate with a Christian legal community committed to a common confession
of faith whose members are available to teach the student what it means to submit
every aspect of their calling in the legal profession to Christ.
To better avail yourself of Law Student Ministries'
(LSM) staff and resources
to establish a student group committed to glorifying God through spiritual development
and campus outreach.
To receive spiritual and professional encouragement from the CLS and LSM staffs
and from a vast network of CLS attorneys, law professors, judges and fellow
students.
To cultivate invaluable contacts-judges, senior partners, practicing attorneys,
politicians, and government employees-who can assist you with finding summer
internships and job prospects upon graduation.
To grow in your faith through CLS's various publications and tapes such as
The Christian Lawyer, The Christian Lawyer Digest, the newsletter Briefly, the
Defender, Bible studies tailored for Christian attorneys and law students, and
pamphlets and training materials on religious liberty and other important social
and legal issues.
To qualify for significant discounts on Christian legal publications stocked
by CLS, including Bible studies relevant to integrating faith and the practice
of law.
To receive the CLS Resource Index, a listing of helpful books and tools designed
to encourage personal and chapter growth and to have available to your CLS affiliated
student chapter a free copy of the CLS National Directory, the only comprehensive
listing of Christian attorneys by state and specialty.
To learn about God's mighty actions in the legal profession by attending, at
significant savings, the CLS National Conference, an event described by numerous
law students over the years as "life changing." Annual regional conferences
are also available for students in many parts of the country.
To take advantage of CLS's low dues for students--$25.00 per year PLUS significantly
reduced membership dues upon graduation from law school, or better yet, under
the exciting "10 for 10" Program, $10.00 a year gets you and nine classmates
an initial year's membership PLUS significantly reduced membership dues upon
graduation for all ten of you.
