  CO Visit Nightmares

  by Tish in

  2. friends

  so i grew up as a jw and my family had no elders etc so we were not the type to have the honour of co visiting for lunch etc.. so when the opportunity arrived 5 yrs ago i tried to do it all properly.

  my husband had to go into work at the last minute leaving me with a baby with chicken pox and a son off from school with a twisted ankle, my daughter was high on astma meds which mean't she was throwing roast potatos across the table at the co's wife whilst i did my best be the hostess with the mostest.. sadly my hubbie at the time did not get made a mini as the elders had hoped until i could control the children!!.

  has anyone else had any funny things happen to them whilst entertaining cos?

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have just had a conversation with my son who is 8 years old and don't know what to do.

  i'll start from the beginning so you understand.. as some may know my hubbie left me when i was still a witness for not believing the truth and also went off with another woman.

  i then after a few months met a man i fell in love with instantly.

  What Are You All Doing Now?

  by Tish in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am at a crossroads in my life, and wanted your opinions:.

  i have been d/f for 18 months, i have learnt enough to know jws are completely misguided, but my sis has also been d/a for questioning things, she has been doing the alpha course and is getting baptised at a baptist church next weekend, which i am very pleased for her to be doing if she feels it's right.

  i am in a quandry as i am very sceptical about going to another religion, i know many i have spoken to say, it isn't joining a religion but just associating with other christians.

  WT Nov 4 Study Article - Damage Control??

  by Tish in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  just been given this watchtower and found the 2nd study article very interesting..... is this the societies damage control to panorama and dateline?.

  para 8 onwards says...... 8 satan tries to break our integrity through the sowing of doubts about what we have been taught.

  today, as in the first century, apostates and others seek to destroy the faith of the guideless ones.
