GOD IS A LAWYER TOO: TEN LAWS OF UNLIMITED SUCCESS by Rev. Cecilia B. Loving is a powerful story illustrating how spiritual law can be applied to the work environment or to any aspect of our lives. Even though it takes place in a legal/corporate setting, the principles of success are applicable to any profession, dream or desire. If you are trying to find a job, change your job or leave the workplace to pursue your deeper calling, this book will help you succeed. GOD IS A LAWYER TOO teaches us how to prosper through the power of success -- not merely by financial wealth but by changing our consciousness to understand and utilize the gifts that the universe blesses us with. In GOD IS A LAWYER TOO, Najih Edwards, the main character finds himself in the sweatshop of the Tabernacle, a temp agency, where he -- along with hundreds of other lawyers -- reviews millions of pages of documents. He struggles to leave and reclaim his life as a successful lawyer, which seems like an impossible dream until he meets a partner at a prestigious law firm named Dale. Dale reveals the "Ten Laws of Unlimited Success," but the question is -- who is Dale? Why is he shrouded in mystery? Where did he come from? Does he have the ability to hire Najih at his firm? What is his secret, and how will it impact Najih's fate? If you liked THE GREATEST SALESMAN IN THE WORLD, THE PROPHET, or THE ALCHEMIST, then you will definitely love GOD IS A LAWYER TOO. Patrick A. Bradford, Esq., Secretary of the Board of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc. calls this "Yet another literary and liturgical success for Rev. Loving. Her third book, GOD IS A LAWYER TOO, draws on Rev. Loving's 23 years of practice as a corporate litigator and her life-long love of Christ. She is a force of nature - evidencing God's unending grace in these difficult times." Yolanda Webb, Editor-In-Chief, E'LON Couture Magazine says "Cecilia's work gives us the unlimited ability to improve the quality of what we have to offer in this life." Attorney Vaughn Browne says "Cecilia is what every mentee desires in a mentor and thankfully she had the foresight to pen this incredible blueprint to share her uncommon gift with the world for generations to come." Attorney and Life Coach Femi Austin says "GOD IS A LAWYER TOO reminds us of the integrative nature of our existence in which a deeper connection to spirit enhances every aspect of our life, including our careers and relationships."

In Jesus on Trial, New York Times bestselling author David Limbaugh applies his lifetime of legal experience to a unique new undertaking: making a case for the gospels as hard evidence of the life and work of Jesus Christ. Limbaugh, a practicing attorney and former professor of law, approaches the canonical gospels with the same level of scrutiny he would apply to any legal document and asks all the necessary questions about the story of Jesus told through Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. His analysis of the texts becomes profoundly personal as he reflects on his own spiritual and intellectual odyssey from determined skeptic to devout Christian. Ultimately, Limbaugh concludes that the words Christians have treasured for centuries stand up to his exhaustive enquiry—including his examination of historical and religious evidence beyond the gospels—and thereby affirms Christian faith, spirituality, and tradition.

God vs. the Gavel challenges the pervasive assumption that all religious conduct deserves constitutional protection. While religious conduct provides many benefits to society, it is not always benign. The thesis of the book is that anyone who harms another person should be governed by the laws that govern everyone else - and truth be told, religion is capable of great harm. This may not sound like a radical proposition, but it has been under assault since the 1960s. The majority of academics and many religious organizations would construct a fortress around religious conduct that would make it extremely difficult to prosecute child abuse by clergy, medical neglect of children by faith-healers, and other socially unacceptable behaviors. This book intends to change the course of the public debate over religion by bringing to the public's attention the tactics of religious entities to avoid the law and therefore harm others.

Have you ever thought of Jesus as a lawyer? It may sound odd, but at times in His ministry, Jesus wore his lawyer hat. When he defended the adulterous woman, when he argued from Scripture that the disciples were fine to pick grain on the Sabbath, and in other instances, Jesus insightfully applied to uphold justice and promote goodwill. The legal aspects of Jesus’ ministry have long been obscured or misunderstood, particularly his interactions with and attitude toward the law and lawyers. Jesus’ desire in his day and ours is to use the law to secure the rights of people to hear the gospel and to set humanity free. In other words, to be the best citizens we can be, we need to follow in the footsteps of the greatest citizen who ever lived. Jesus in the Courtroom covers topics like: Why we should care about the law Strategic involvement with the law How God has used the law to expand His kingdom What can happen when we partner with legal professionals How citizenship is part of discipleship Christian citizenship in matters like adoption, abortion, minimum wage, foster care, and schools We are citizens of two kingdoms, but many of us duck and run when it comes to civil life. For anyone who cares about their community—parents, teachers, pastors, you name it—engagement with our legal system can play a huge role in the health of our communities and in cultivating a context where the gospel can flourish. Jesus in the Courtroom will help us understand not only why we have failed to appreciate the legal aspect of Jesus’ life, but also to understand and cooperate with his legal ministry to us and through us. If we are going to be faithful “citizen disciples” in this challenging new world, we need to look anew at how Jesus taught, thought, and interacted with the legal establishment of his day.
