The bro that gave the talk said something that I thought was telling. He mentioned that the work was being simplified. Then he mentioned that it seemed that most of what we are doing now is inviting people to our special events. Pointed to the Memorial "campaign", then the invite to the "Special" talk, and that soon we would be inviting folks to the summer conventions.
No more 5 minute sermons with 2 scriptures read and applied?? Those were the days.
