  last saturday afternoon i heard the talk, "put on the lord jesus christ," at the circuit assembly.. one of the overriding questions guiding christians into straight paths was the expected, "what would jesus do?

  " citing various texts, the speaker admonished that we should put up a hard fight for the faith, arming ourselves as soldiers.

  all good.

  What's Your View on Tipping?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  typically, i give at least 20% on my total bill.

  if the service or the waitress is especially charming, maybe more.. i wonder, when you sit at a bar/restaurant and have a meal and drinks and then order a take out ( i do this for my mother quite often) are you supposed to tip on everything, including the takeout??.

  when i stay in a hotel, i typically leave 2 or 3 dollars per day for the maid.

  my state now has a lottery, so i decided it was time to buy one.

  i paid $2 for a powerball ticket, so now i need to figure out how to spend my winnings.

  i've never even looked at lotteries before, but the woman at the counter was nice enough to explain the different ones to me.

  i have been looking at this website for about 2 months now and feel i am now ready to say hi and intoduce myself.i dont want to give out too much info at this point in time as i still am in the org, but have only been to 2 meetings since the district convention in august and last time i went out on service was in march.

  i was basically raised in the truth as my parents became jw when i was 2. i was married in my late teens and after 21 years of being married to a total control freak he left me (yay).

  anyway since me ex left, i had been doing a lot of thinking about being a witness, and i wasnt really going to a lot of meetings - just didnt feel like it.

  Impromptu Survey - 2 Types of Reasons to Leave

  by AdaMakawee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was thinking, not counting those who are df'd for "conduct," it seems to me that there are two type of exjws that leave.

  by this i mean the ones that woke up and came to their senses while still inside.

  1. those who found doctrinal errors and couldn't stay with the lies.. 2. those who found that there was no love and left because of the betrayal of emotions, and realization that by this fruit you knew they were not the ones, their lack of love.

  Convention 2009 - My best friend gets "love bombed" back in the "truth" and his sad SMS!!!!

  by Witness 007 in

  i was so happy when my best friend {a witness} since childhood tells me he has doubts about the org.

  and how brothers are "two faced" and the "false prophecies", and how he "needs a woman soon or he'll visit a brothel".... he had not gone to meetings for months and his mum blamed me although he didn't need much convincing.

  well we went to the convention to please family and he enjoyed the lavish attention he got from so many "loving" brothers.
