Greg and Linda Stoughton

#0359850

We invite you to be part of God’s ministry through your prayers and giving.


By God’s grace, we’re celebrating 34 years of full-time ministry with Cru. Our journey has taken us around the world—and now, back to Cincinnati, the city where we met, married, and began our first 15 years on Cru staff. We remain deeply committed to using the gifts God has given us to help fulfill the Great Commission.


For ways to give beyond cash, see https://give.cru.org/more-ways-to-give.html ... There are many tax advantages associated with the giving of non-cash gifts. Contributions from stock, IRA distributions, Donor Advised Funds, and more, can also be designated to our ministry account (0359850). 


Linda currently serves remotely with the Jesus Film Project, working with the fund development team on a visionary new initiative: a new animated JESUS film. Designed to reach families around the globe, this compelling film will carry the message of Jesus in the heart languages of the world—potentially more than 2235, matching the reach of the original JESUS film. As of July 2025, this project is about 70% funded.


Greg serves with Cru City Cincinnati, focusing on workplace outreach and discipleship through LeaderImpact. He works to help professionals grow in their faith while connecting leaders, ministries, and churches for greater Kingdom influence—locally, nationally, and globally. His primary focus is mentoring and equipping young professionals, ages 20 to 35, for leadership and spiritual impact.

From 2009 to 2021, Greg served as Director of the President’s Staff at Cru Headquarters. He worked closely with former president Steve Douglass, leading a team of 25 and advancing significant global ministry initiatives. Prior to that, Greg and Linda served with Athletes in Action (AIA) for 15 years in Ohio and two years in East Asia.

Our oldest son, Kyle (29), and his wife, Kim, also serve with Cru. They help reach students on the campus of the University of Florida. Our youngest son, Ryan (23), is entering his fourth year as a power lineman in North Carolina.

Greg’s book, Born Wrong, Made Right: Thinking Differently to Unleash Your Potential, shares his personal story of faith and transformation. It was released in July 2017.

Thank you for your partnership with us. Your prayers and financial support make this ministry possible. We’re grateful for your interest in joining us to reach others for Christ.Feel free to reach out to us anytime at greg.stoughton@cru.org or linda.stoughton@jesusfilm.org.
