just curious how we all think.. what prompted or influenced your choice of username for this forum?.

there are some really amazing names, and it would be great to hear the stories behind them.... mine was nothing fancy.

i just felt "stuck in a rut too" along with so many others.

Do we attack the Topic or the Person?

by stuckinarut2 in

i was just thinking that most witnesses can not approach a controversial topic without turning it into an attack of the person who raises that topic.. as we all awaken to ttatt (the truth about the truth), they simply can't discuss the actual facts or issues we discover without turning it into an attack of us as "apostates" with all the negative connotations that word entails.... how truly narrow minded and sad!

.

they would rather attack the person than the topic..

Hearing voices, not always caused by demons.

my wife and i for the past three months have been caring for a teenage girl who was abused by her parents.

she stole a car to get away, and living in prison was a welcome relief for her.

she was in prison for four years, and the state was going to release her, but she would not go back home.. a co-worker teacher that my wife knows told us the situation, and we agreed o help the girl get back on her feet.. well, she dealt with abuse from all aspects 😔, and is pretty messed up in the head from all of that.. but by being in our home, she was safe and was learning how to deal with her problems.

Much respect to you both for helping her get established in life!

Your kindly display of love would put many Christians and Witnesses to shame!

much love!

New Here

by Red.tomato in

hi everyone, this is my first post .. it takes a little bit of courage to do it, i have to admit and even thought i have been lurking for some time as time goes by it gets more and more difficult to keep attending meetings and just been around the friends in the congregation.

ever since i learned about the arc something inside of me just broke and it feels pretty hollow, now i pay attention to every single form of manipulation in every direction, what difference it makes with the catholic church or with any other religions ?

i wonder why the publishers are under obligation to report about their lives and decisions to the elders but they don´t keep informed the congregation about what´s going on legally other than russia.

A sincere welcome to our wonderful community Red!

It is great to have you here.

It is indeed a nerve wracking experience to post for the first time here. We completely understand.

Please be assured that you are in safe place,

As you go through this part of your journey, just keep your dignity, poise and grace with your family and those inside the cong. They all may not ever understand the TTATT (The Truth about The Truth),and they may cause you issues, BUT make sure that they see you as the calm person.

Don't allow the frustration to play into the society's stereotype of "apostates".

Much love!
