Wierwille and all of the Way leadership would label the causes I am currently involved in and contributing to "designer causes". Uncle Harry would teach that he used to give to other causes, but now he gives everything to the Way.
I think they've got it exactly wrong. Being in a cult is the designer cause. It's the frivolous cause, the one that enslaves many yet produces nothing of value in a community except a bunch of egotistical idiots plotting how to accost people in supermarkets, at home, etc. to convince them to "take the class". You know, the one that was plagiarized originally from BG Leonard, re-worked with the same content in different outline order, and taught by whomever the cult hasn't fired to date.
Causes where Christians in Christ's body band together and positively influence communities and genuinely help others those are the genuine causes, those are Christ's work. Whether it is a meal for the homeless a home for the downtrodden or rescuing someone from being drugged up and pimped out all over the world. That's providing value, not ego.
