    DS, a step in the right direction, well done.

    You know your wife better than any of us, try and think of good veiw point questions and just listen to her. What is she most cheesed off about in the cong at the moment?

    Women like to let off steam about Sis ShowOff.

    Take your time with the next step, after all Armaggedon is NOT around the corner. Love Sam xx

    Shes pissed that people gossip, showy displays of ones means, hypocritical people, and that is confused how the WT teach that there will be having kids and marriage in the new system, which is contrary to what Luke states in chapter...12 i believe? That in the system to come people will be as angels in heaven and wont get married...no marruage=no babies cause you cant have then iut of wedlock right? Lol

    How about trying a hypothetical?

    Say, a couple living in an area without a Kingdom Hall, attend maybe a few times a year, and read the literature on occassion. Are they still Jehovah's Witnesses? Does Jehovah recognize them? Why?

    How about Jesus forty days in the Wilderness? How did he keep his faith strong apart from meetings?

    Now go splurge and buy a weekend away for next weekend. Drag this missing stretch out as long as you can. Heck take off Thursday and Friday and make it a long weekend. This could be it. The time you get her out. The longer she is away the more likely she will be to understand the truth about the truth.

    Great ideas guys! Well jnat i asked my wife about cleanng up after armageddon...i said it was only speculatiln because it does not say it in the bible. She said "well they say its onky logical..." So i replied with the fact that we shouldnt lean on our own understanding and that its just speculation....she agreed. :-)

    That's how it started with my husband too: he just decided to miss meetings and do something else instead. Now he has a beard! Not that I think your wife should grow one...
