Since 1969, CLA has been providing free legal assistance to Bible-believing churches and Christians who are experiencing difficulty in practicing their religious faith because of governmental regulation, intrusion, or prohibition in one form or another.
The Christian Law Association exists
to preserve Christian liberty for your children and grandchildren.
CLA received in excess of 100,000
phone calls annually, not counting the thousands of pieces of correspondence
from those who are in some way facing legal difficulties for doing what the
Bible commands. These cases involve Christians arrested for witnessing to
others in public, public school students being told they do not have the right
to read their Bibles at school, churches being excluded from communities,
Christians being fired for sharing their faith at work, and thousands of other
shocking assaults on our precious religious freedoms. CLA provides free legal
services based in part on the generosity of God's people. Your contribution to
CLA is 501(c)(3) tax deductible.
More than 40 years ago, the ministry of the
Christian Law Association effectively began with a phone call from a pastor in
Ohio.
As a young attorney, David C. Gibbs,
Jr. could hardly believe his ears as the pastor relayed how his church was
being sued by the state for operating its ministry. As he reviewed the legal
documents, Dr. Gibbs was astonished that such a thing could happen in modern
America. From that very first case through the present day, God has blessed Dr.
Gibbs' commitment to legally help churches, pastors, and Christians free of
charge. The ministry has grown substantially through God's blessing over the
last 40 years as attorneys, legal assistants, and other ministry workers have
joined our team of "legal missionaries."
