As a Christian law school, Pepperdine Caruso School of Law believes that, along with the rule of law, the God-imaging principles and practices of reconciliation are what bring an enduring peace and flourishing to a free society (Matt. 5:9; 2 Cor. 5:18). Through the Straus Institute’s leading degree programs—MDR, LLM, and MLS—and its professional trainings, we equip and empower students, lawyers, judges, and leaders across sectors to serve as ministers of reconciliation. This work bears the signature imprint of our mission and conviction.
