The Founding Fathers recognized that the Bible was the keystone of our society and its strength. Many of them, such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, espoused that man-made laws, including the Constitution, would become hollow husks if the citizenry lost its individual obedience to God’s law.

The Bible’s lessons can be especially valuable for lawyers who work for small legal departments because we typically don’t get the moral guidance and inspiration that a large legal department can provide.
