this is really making me mad.

i write articles about different bible topics.

they are mostly geared to new christians to help them get a better understanding of basic doctrine, christian life, and christianity in the early church.

Did You Ever Think YOU Could Personally Make A Difference As A JW or ExJW?

by minimus in

i used to feel that i could truly help people.

i realized as an elder that most people were burnt out, depressed and discouraged by "the truth"---specifically that they felt they could never do enough to satisfy the elders and jehovah.

my goal was to be encouraging, positive and approachable.

I would like to think I make a difference. But the moments are fleeting and people soon forget.

my hubby, our grandson, our son, and me.... took a trip down to syracuse to see the "lights on the lake" display.

it is two miles of road through a park along onondaga lake, and it is crammed with all kinds of lighted exhibits with every imaginable christmas creature and every possible theme (and then some) included!

there were even menorahs and displays for hannukkah!

A Christmas tree fell off the back of a truck once. That's about as festive as it gets in these parts.

A little update.......

by megsmomma in

i had posted an e-mail with my step-dad and i going back and forth over me ranting about the jw's and him saying i just want to blame everyone for my life.. my husband met with him sunday for lunch...to basically tell him why i was critical of the society and that i am a happy person...i just do have some issues because of the religion i was raised in.. it is important to note that he has never been baptised(and has been "in" it for 20 yrs), but thinks they are the true religion.. so, he was very humble with my hubby and said he would like to talk things out with me.

he admitted he was not right in the way he treated me growing up, and he should not have said the things he did in the e-mail.. so, we met today and i explained how the jw's treating me so nice as a kid, and showing me approval when i conformed ment a-lot to me...and i didn't know how to look at things critically...i just totally believed.

we went on to talk about him praying and how i just recently felt like i could pray since i was taught jehovah only listens to baptised jw's prayes.
