Equity grew out of the Church's own courts of conscience
JD Swan, founder and teacher at Standing on the Rock, on Equity jurisprudence. Written for Traditional Catholic hosts.
Why this matters to you
The Court of Chancery was first presided over by churchmen. Its chancellors judged by conscience, and the maxims of Equity carry the moral theology of the Church into the law.
That history is almost entirely forgotten, yet it still sits underneath every American courtroom. JD teaches it plainly and shows how the same principles help families today.
For a traditional Catholic audience, this is a chance to reclaim a piece of their own inheritance and see how it applies to debt, the IRS, and generational stewardship.
What JD can talk about
- The ecclesiastical roots of Equity
- The trust as generational stewardship
- Facing debt and the IRS in honor
About JD Swan
JD was a systems engineer who lost his career to a mandate. He spent a year in the oldest branch of American law, Equity, and built a teaching ministry, Standing on the Rock, with his wife Margaret. His students are in every US state and seven countries, and their resolution letters are shown with personal details redacted.
Education only. No outcome promises. JD says so on air.
