Ep 2113: The Servant Lawyer’s Guide to Faith at Work

What if the legal profession—so often seen as cutthroat and self-serving—could instead be a picture of servant leadership in the Kingdom of God? 

Welcome attorney and retired professor Bob Cochran, author of The Servant Lawyer: Facing the Challenges of Christian Faith in Everyday Law Practice. Bob shares his journey from initially pursuing law for prestige to discovering its true potential as a calling from God. 

You’ll hear how his faith reshaped his understanding of clients, courtroom advocacy, and even the tough moral decisions that come with legal practice. With wisdom drawn from mentors, Scripture, and decades of practice, Bob offers a radical perspective: lawyers can love their neighbors through advocacy, guidance, and even prayer in the midst of life’s hardest moments. 

And here’s the best part—his insights don’t just apply to lawyers. Whether you’re in business, healthcare, education, or any other field, you’ll be challenged to see your workplace as a ministry place and your profession as a way to serve Christ. 

What You’ll Hear in This Episode: 

  • How C.S. Lewis helped Bob rediscover faith during law school 

  • The vision of practicing law as a vocation and ministry 

  • Why defining “client” as “the neighbor God has brought into my life” changes everything 

  • Stories of living out faith in high-stress legal settings 

  • Encouragement for all professionals to see their work as Kingdom influence 

If you know an attorney—or anyone preparing to practice law —consider gifting them Bob’s book The Servant Lawyer. It’s a paradigm-shifting resource for living out faith in a profession often misunderstood.
