HAW...KEE...HAW....KEE Anyone else here a hockey fan?
by jgnat ini live in a sports city where hockey is the national sport.
being an oil town, we've experienced the flush of success and the misery of defeat.
we haven't seen the stanley cup since our heyday in 1990. we're so game-crazy, the city's motto is, "city of champions.".

I'm presently re-reading Wolves among Sheep by James Kostelniuk.Before that I read a true-crime book by Kieran Crowley.
I'm also reading the book of Acts.
My work schedule got changed so my reading has been hampered quite a bit.

As I read your story,it struck me just how many lives have been affected in a positive way by all the work you've done.Whether it is a child saved from sexual abuse or someone who wakes up to the hypocrisy of the WT and helps prevent further abuse.
I admire your courage Barbara,you are an example for all of us who have been wronged by the WT.Thank you.

How many do you remember ?
by vitty in.
when you were in the borg how many scriptures did you know off by heart and could remember chapter and verse.. id say i could remember about 20, and they were the ones we would constantly use !
sad really after 20 years.

At one time,I counted over 300.It was the only spiritual gift I had (1cor 7:7b). I used to sit with my wife during talks and tell her the next scripture just by the way the talk was going.One time I was doing so good,she asked me how I was doing it.I just said I wrote the talk.She almost believed me,we had a good laugh.Even now she'll ask me for a scripture when she needs it.Other family members do too even though I'm the only one who doesn't attend meetings anymore.
