Did I plant a seed ?

    I met a Bro and his wife in a local store at the weekend, I didn't get much of a chance to say anything to make him think, so I looked back on the conversation as an epic fail on my part.

    But thinking about what I said, one bit may stick, we were talking about the old days and how thirty or forty years ago the smallish Congregations as they were then had a "family" feel about them, he then remarked about the "wonderful expansion" over the years, so I said "yes, but I would think here in the West they are now stagnating". He agreed, so I said "The trouble is today that if anyone is thinking of doing anything life changing they Google it first".

    We then talked of other things, but I wonder if that may spur him on to Google the JW's and see what is said ?

    I do hope so.

    Baby steps.

    You got a thought in without frightening him off YOU. Nice.

    I hope so too...you never know what will get a mind searching...especially if they have a little bit of doubt already.

    Yeah, that's the most important thing: BABY STEPS! To slam someone all at once is fatal to your cause. I learned that one the hard way. sigh.
