Jeffrey Hammond is an Associate Professor of Law at Faulkner University's School of Law, where he has served since 2007. His interdisciplinary research focuses on law and theology, bioethics, religious liberty, health law, and the philosophy of law. Hammond holds a B.A. from Harding University (1997), a J.D. and M.T.S. from Emory University (2001), where he worked with scholars like John Witte, Jr. and Abdullahi An-Na’im. Prior to academia, he practiced health care law from 2001 to 2007 at firms in Nashville, Tennessee.
His scholarship explores intersections between religious principles and legal frameworks, including conscience protections, religious accommodation, and constitutional theory. Recent works address pandemic-era conflicts between public health measures and religious freedom, the role of Christian love in shaping law, and oaths in legal contexts. His analyses often bridge historical legal thought and modern ethical dilemmas.
Hammond has contributed to peer-reviewed journals and edited volumes, including co-authoring sections of Cultural Transformation and Human Rights in Africa (2002). His academic work emphasizes theological perspectives on legal issues without explicitly naming Faulkner University’s institutional initiatives.
