High Profile Case: Seeking Reinstatement

by headisspinning in

but our situation is very difficult and quite high profile.... i was raised as a jw and my mother was very strict and abusive.

i got baptized at age 14.. my mother actually called on my (present) husband's mom in service.

she was on the initial call resulting in his mom coming in the truth and him being raised in it from about age 8 or 9.. despite a very abusive step-father, he followed his mom's lead and came into the truth.

the injustice is what woke me up. When it comes down to it they will protect the "cause" way before YOU or anyone. It hurt a LOT when I realized this and to this day 2 1/2 years later it can break my heart. I thought they were about love? Please be strong and know there is life beyond this

Creepy Talks

do any of you remeber any talks that were creepy in nature.for example i remember a talk where a brother said "when the end comes your friends and family will be against you" now if that is not crazy i don't know what is.i remember alot of talks regarding bible prophecy and the end times.all of this did not help reinforce the sense of fear since it was 2007-2008 and the united states was going through a recession.this just proved to be fuel for their talks.give good experiences of any talks that you have had that proved to be either weird or very creepy..

yup i was the poor pioneer that always had my car used because it was the only one that would take the abuse. snow? snow was never mentioned as an excuse. We were stuck many many times in driveways and had to get the householder to help us out. I remember getting stuck in one driveway and the householder was cursing at us to leave but we had to get out and push the car because it was stuck in snow. another time I almost killed the CO because we were stuck and he got out to help push and the car started to lean tword a tree and he was between the tree and the car... i don't think i was on his good list after that...
