Where will the evidence take you?

A lawyer is trained for trial. They test the evidence, and cross examine the witnesses. In Fair Hearing experienced members of the Lawyers’ Christian Fellowship - judges, barristers, and solicitors - invite the reader to explore John’s Gospel (his eyewitness testimony) along with them. 

Open book spread titled “Why we can trust John’s gospel,” featuring text by Professor David McIlroy about the historical reliability of John’s Gospel.

  • “To set a Christian lawyer amongst the theologians is often to discover a fresh perspective on the Bible. Here many distinguished Christian lawyers bring their forensic skills to bear on St John’s Gospel. The result is a fascinating reflection upon well-known Scripture from a different perspective eliciting a greater insight and bringing new resources to the study of one of the principal foundations of the Christian faith.”

    Sir Mark Hedley, retired High Court judge

  • “Oh wow, this is so powerful. I love the interplay of testimony then and now. I can’t wait to hold the actual volume in my hand and to start giving it away.”

Our Story

Lawyers’ Christian Fellowship logo with purple “lcf” initials inside a gray circle and the organization name beneath

Formed on the 9 February 1852 as a prayer union, and subsequently renamed the Lawyers’ Christian Fellowship, the LCF today has a large, UK-wide membership of Christian lawyers representing all strands of the legal profession.  The LCF’s membership is truly diverse, but they have a shared belief in the historic teachings of the Christian faith. At the heart of the Christian faith is evidence about and belief in the life, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus – the Gospel. Good news. Good news to be shared. Good news which, we believe, deserves a Fair Hearing.
