Trinity Law School

Almost two years ago, the Trinity community lost our dear colleague and friend, Professor Craig Hawkins. Professor Hawkins taught at Trinity for many years, and was a regular fixture of academic life both on and off campus. His courses included Jurisprudence, Legal Institutions and Values, Human Rights, and many others. In particular, he created and taught our course on the prevention of human trafficking in Cambodia.

He was also involved in numerous ministries, including founder of the Apologetics Information Ministry, and host of many radio programs focused on apologetics, biblical teaching, and faith & culture.

His work—and more so, his faith, lived out loud for all to witness—has fundamentally shaped this school, and hundreds of students along the way. It is with deepest gratitude and honor that the Board of Regents of Trinity International University awards Professor Hawkins the Degree of Doctor of Humanities, honoris causa.

The Center for Public Legal Theology officially launches its website!

The Center’s mission integrates theology and law to advance human flourishing within the principles of ordered liberty.

Led by Professor Ventrella, this new website will promote scholarship, training, and engagement to ground legal initiatives, advocacy, and policy in foundational theological principles.

Each month, the website features an essay that probes, and perhaps provokes, conversations that apply timeless theological truths to contemporary legal and cultural matters all from a public legal theological perspective.
