So much emphasis is placed on what we do. Too often we place our identities in our career. How do we re-focus ourselves as we face this challenge? What are the positive ways Christians can impact society?

 What defines satisfaction in legal practice? How do you handle stress on the job, and were there defining moments that affected the path of your career?

Join the Legal Fellowship as they host a panel discussion that answers these questions for those in the legal profession.

Light hors d'oeuvres will be served.

Location: Redeemer offices 1359 Broadway, 4th Floor
