Professor Enlow’s lectures on Christian jurisprudence can be viewed here.
Professor Enlow joined Liberty University School of Law after a twenty-year career in South Korea as a law professor and, for the last fourteen years as dean of Handong International Law School, the only Christian law school in East Asia. He also served concurrently, for the last two years, as Vice-President for Handong Global University. In these roles, he worked to develop Christian educational communities embodying the intrinsic unity between growing in our knowledge of Jesus Christ and developing understanding and skills in all fields of university education. He was awarded the title of Dean Emeritus on his departure.
Enlow has spoken and taught widely in the U.S. and Asia on issues of Christian jurisprudence, which is the wisdom about law arising from faith in Jesus Christ as it is applied in counsel and advocacy. In pursuing and practicing this wisdom, he believes, all fields of public and private law show themselves to be signs of God’s love for man and to present opportunities to glorify God and love neighbor. In his scholarship and teaching, therefore, he has worked to show the significance of Christ for all areas of law and legal practice: normatively, as a matter of Biblical doctrine; practically, as Christianity has affected global legal history; and, theoretically, insofar as Christ, the Word of God and perfect expression of the Eternal Law, is necessary for a coherent and comprehensive account of law.
He began his legal career clerking for the great Christian jurist, the Hon. Richard S. Arnold, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, then practicing U.S. and international intellectual property law and appellate law as a member of the Missouri and Illinois bars.
