My sister didn’t want to have conversations one morning, so every presentations, she’d start by slowly saying: “Hello, we are Jehovah’s witnesses.” Then, take a pause. Her presentation never went further, everyone she met that day closed the door when she paused.

I once fell asleep during a bible study. Both the study conductor and the student were incredibly boring. What makes this story so special is the fact that the study conductor really, really took it personal and probably still remembers this to this day. Perhaps it was the snoring…

I once visited the door of one of my bullies in school. Strangely enough, he didn’t tell anyone in school about the encounter. But while I was at the door, doing the presentation to his parents… it was one of the most uncomfortable moments in my life.

When I was about 20, I was a the door of an Atheist and realised that everything I was telling him weren't valid arguments. That is when I stopped saying I had proof for the bible and God's existence and that my faith was based on feelings and emotions I could not demonstrate. I still remember the address of that house. That's how I was shaken by this guy.

When I was a a teenager, back then, we didn't have access to porn on the internet. So I got lost in the top magazine rack of a local store. The owner spotted me than and threw me out.
Well, just a few days latter, I was back at the very same store, doing "commercial" witnessing with a local elder. While the brother was making his presentation, the store owner looked at me with a smile and said: I know you don't I? You're the kid that was looking at those magazines behind, aren't you?"
I thought I was gonna die.
He than looked at the elder: "Perhaps one day, he'll be able to afford one of these cars instead of staring into these magazines. Right boy?"

I was doing "commercial" witnessing with a local elder who happened to be rich. Then, the owner of a local corner store told him: "I'm too busy to look into this crap, I'm a business man. Unlike you, I have a business to run."
The brother lost it and said:
"I have 80 employees under my care, a few buildings downtown and still, I find the time to come an visit you. Don't tell me: I have a business to run, you know that is BS".
Well, that day, I finally knew what that brother was worth! lol

Circuit visit and the CO the (in)famous John Blaney, then in his late 60s or maybe 70 ish, he was late for his appointments for afternoon return visit as it was then, arrangement, he was, of course, in the pub, eventually meeting group of about 7 of us, he asked who had a back call nearby, and it was me, he no more than took all 8 of us including mimself to my call , arranged us in a semi circle around him, and said, 'leave it to me' he them hammered at the door, householder answered and must have been stunned to see this little posse at the door. John proceeded to place the Babylon book with the householder who was too shocked to say anything. End of that as a back call in future
At another door he kept hammering away with no answer, took us round back and shouted at back door, 'I know your inthere , you better hide good because when the Lords Angels come for you there won't be anywhere to hide'
JB straight to pub after Thursday evening meeting, with my grandad who was not a witness and waiting outside KH, stayed at my grans and had her iron his copy of the Daily Telegraph before he would read it. Strangely, all the brothers loved him!
