Christian Disobedience
NPR asks: When does Christian missionary work “become offensive”?
(Page 2 of 2)
There, they violated the WCC’s proposed Christian Code of Conduct every way possible. They spoke of their faith to other teenagers. They gave people rides. They passed out money and food. And they built and repaired houses.
They did not ask first whether the people they helped were Christian believers or not. They just helped, and bore witness.
I guess it’s a good thing Pass Christian isn’t Muslim.
