  JW Elder still in music business - despite telling congregation he wasn't

  by uk_ex_jw in

  i've known this elder for years.

  when i was in the borg he told me how he was in the music business before he became a jw.. he made a point of telling me how ruthless it was and how he had been ripped off for thousands of pounds.. he did many talks from the platform over how as a young man he was involved in a typical 'drugs, rock and roll' lifestyle and how becoming a jw changed his life.. there was a young guy in the congregation who was particulary interested in music.

  this elder counselled him that it was ok to do it i.e.

  New Rumor: Downsizing Circuits/Assemblies

  by metatron in

  2. friends

  heard a new rumor that:.

  the borg is going to phase out big district assemblies - so they can fit 'em in assembly halls.. they will reduce the size of circuits.

  they will synchronize c.o.

  Maybe this is what the grab for the title deeds of Kingdom Halls is about? If the WT owns the halls, they can force congregations to sell them and pitch in with other local congregations to create more complexes which will double as assembly halls?

  exJW artist,,, amazing paintings, and heart-warming video. :))

  by talesin in

  2. friends

  i came across this artist in my internet travels .... his paintings are just,, well, you have to see them for yourself!

  it's abstract expressionism at its finest, and easy to relate to the symbolism, especially as explained in the vid.

  many of you, reading this, may find joy and release in expressing yourself in artistic mediums; here's what can happen if you 'go for it'.

  If you tell them how you feel you are likely to be disfellowshipped. If this is something you need to avoid then you will have to lie or not meet with them.

  Reduced Magazines Etc: Scenario Thinking

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  forgive me for creating this thread but i believe there are aspects of watchtower downsizing that have not been fully understood or 'fleshed out'.. for example: you have a publishing company whose main source of revenues are book and magazine production and sales.

  their international presence is supported by the profits they make on these.

  so far, so good.... overtime, their products fail to sell.

  They probably regret not going this way about fifteen years ago when the Internet was just beginning to hit its stride - instead of demonizing it.

  Will Embracing the Internet lead to Increased Growth for the Watchtower?

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  more important than the reduction in the size of the new magazine is that the watchtower will be actively promoting its website and encouraging people use it to download magazines.

  my concern is that this has the potential to lead to an increase in growth for the watchtower.. the door-to-door preaching work has been one of the most inefficient means imaginable to gain converts, and done little more than tie up the time of active jws.

  now, by directing people to the internet, witnesses can spread their message at an alarming rate for little cost.. do you feel that this has the potential to lead to a surge in growth of jehovah's witnesses?

  I would love to have been a fly on the wall in the GB session where the idea of the internet being their salvation was floated.

  "Hang on a minute lads, I've got a great idea..."

  

  I think it's a risk but it looks as though they are desperate enough to take one.
