CLF Conversations

A Gospel Legacy

Episode Summary

Ever notice how construction projects always seem to take longer than the sign says? “Coming Summer 2024”… and then it’s Christmas before the doors open. But while earthly building projects can test our patience, investing in God’s kingdom never returns void. What if we looked at brick and mortar not just as walls, but as vessels of gospel legacy for generations to come? In this episode, we explore why a capital campaign is more than raising funds—it’s about planting seeds of gospel impact that will echo through Southern Oregon and beyond. So grab your hard hat (or at least your coffee mug), and let’s talk about building something that lasts forever.

Episode Notes

🎙️ Episode Summary
In this episode of CLF Conversations, we'll introduce A Gospel Legacy for Southern Oregon, a campaign that will build for generations. More than a capital project, this effort is about stewarding God’s call to be a beacon of truth and grace in a world marked by confusion and chaos. As CLF looks to expand its capacity for worship, discipleship, and outreach, we reflect on how every brick, every gift, and every prayer points toward a greater story—God’s story of redemption in Southern Oregon.

This conversation will encourage you to see generosity not just as giving, but as sowing into the eternal legacy of the gospel.
