    No this was taken from the June 2010 Awake. I don't have any files, or copies of the outlines, etc.

    Hmmm ... quick thoughts -->

    Jehovah, Jehovah, Jehovah -- where is Jesus?

    What's the difference between an audio drama and a regular one?

    "Walk by Faith and Not By Sight" (About flight of Christians from Jerusalem) My money is that this drama will be the exact opposite. That it will be in regards to excerising faith in the direction of the GB. There may be some characters in the drama that resists the GB's instruction to leave the city and are destroyed by the Romans. Witnesses will laugh at their folly. Of course this whole episode is non-existant in the Bible so expect much fanciful speculation. The 1st century congregation will mirror Jehovah's witnesses today exactly - except with robes and sandals.

    " ”Stay Close to Jehovah as Jeremiah Did”" - So... a commentary on Jeremiah? If so will probably continue the trend of forgoing the heady prophecy books of the passed toward the more generic newer books. What does Jeremiah say about pornography? meeting attendance? Christian dress and grooming? sort of thing.

    " “For Those Loving Jehovah there is No Stumbling Block”" - Maybe an anti-apostate talk.

    "“Allow Nothing to Distance You From Jehovah”" - Pride, -- New Anointed? Technology -- Bye, bye to Facebook.

    “Remain In the Secret Place of the Most High” - which is the Organization. Loyalty talk.

    In the WT parlance "Drawing Close to Jehovah" is generally spun as following rules. Consider the recent book "Remain in God's Love" which was nothing more than a WT talmud/rule book. Expect to see talks focusing on obedience, obedience, obedience -- not even to God -- but vicaroulsy through those "taking hte lead".

    If this is indeed the line-up for the upcoming-I'm-not-coming convention, then it's refreshing how much time they are giving to Jesus. (tongue in cheek obviously)

    My second comment would be that they are Jehovah this, Jehovah that (mostly all about not being irritated or impatient with him) and the for the PUBLIC talk, it says God. Well hell, lets not offend the worldies, we'll sneak in his "real" name later. @@ <----eyerolls.

    Donuthole, looks like you beat me to the same observation.

    Audio drama is where you just sit on your numb butt and listen to a drama, but there are no actors. They are all on stike, don'tcha know??!

    "Remain Close to Jehovah"

    Because if you don't you'll realize that we're full of convening Bullshit for

    sake of are own power and control.

    We really, really, really are god's only channel of communication so there's no need

    to go on the Net and investigate us.

    Friday afternoon first part deserves a thread of its own:

    What questions would you like to hear answered? Or better yet would make you go to hear the answer?

    Answers to question's about Jehovah

    Appears pretty indistinguishable from any of the past 5 or 6 conventions.

    Shoot, make that "last 50 or 60 conventions".
