  the following notes on fred franz's conducting of the morning bible discussion [17 november 1979] were taken by a bethelite and later given to ray franz:.

  some persons are now talking about reading the bible, that we should read "just the bible.

  " well, that's what christendom's churches have been telling the people to do for centuries and look at the mess that's resulted.

  july 2009 awake: "why am i afraid to share my faith?

  " this article assumes that jehovah's witness children are ashamed of their faith!.

  it says "define your fears" and "accept the challenge".

  The August OKMs first and second week further support this, with the first week reaching out to school age kids and then week two reaching out to men in general. Seems like no longer enough men for leadership roles in the organization, so appeal to the UBMs....most UBMs such as myself are the UB part for a reason!!!

  Thanks PSacramento, if she tries to use that logic to take it away, will ask for research to back it up (separate from Awake and WTs of course).

  By the way, that whole thing of MA being created in monestaries is a fable, no proof of that whatsoever.

  Thanks......but it must be true, I read it in the WT or Awake.....yikes!

  Have you heard of the Field Service Application on the I-phone for JW's?

  by awildflower in

  ok, so i'm technically challenged and i don't use the i-phone, but my 19 year old son does and he just showed me this application for jw's and keeping track of their field service!

  it shows maps, keeps track of time, addresses , even how to e-mail time to three different addresses!...............here's the thing: how many jw's would know about this if we have always been encouraged to not get to involved in technology.

  they would dog technology but i'll bet they will use this on an assembly someday to show how jehovah has blessed them and look at the new tool he has given them and aren't we special.

  although the WTS says not to do this

  Why would they not want the individual to do this, you think simplifying things would open up more time for service and activity to the org.....
