Which shoebox appeal should i support? (I am in the UK)?

Question

I have always filled boxes for Samaritans Purse but am concered about some of the bad press they have received and also some of the things I have read on their site under the spiritual impact section.

I want to be certain that the gifts I send are given out unconditionally and although my family are christians I disagree with christian material being added to the boxes due to the offense it may cause to those of other religions.

What would you recommend???

Answer 1

I recommend you go with Samaritan's Purse.

If you are truly a Christian, then 'offending' other religions should have no bearing whatso ever on your giving.

Are you of Christ or the world?

John 15:18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

Joh 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
