  Just a corporate downsizing they don't want to admit to.

  The new releases at the regional convention are are electronic. They are not even issuing CDs.

  Printed material is a dinosaur. The wt are just late to the party as usual.

  No Reason For JWs To Go To The MIdweek Meeting (CLAM)

  by JW_Rogue in

  2. experiences

  everything that is done at the midweek meeting can now be done at home.

  the videos are online, the first talk is scripted, the bible highlights are scripted.

  you could get the same experience by just reading and watching the material from your tablet.

  I rarely go to the mid week meeting anymore. The new format is boring as hell and I work a lot of overtime

  The speaker doing the shunning part made sure to pause before and after saying this includes inactive ones who haven't been through the judicial process.

  I Didn't Belong

  i remember an art project when i was six years old.

  the teacher handed out felt pine trees that we glued to burlap sheets.

  everyone then attached little pieces of colorful material to the felt trees.

  I've played the sleuth on this site and found some ttats nearby to where I live and I've also reconnected with some old friends that have faded. I've also had some contact me by the same means.

  Not everyone is willing to out themselves though. The watchtower fear of being outed runs deep

  WTBTS / GBoJW elevating status of their literature

  by Nicholaus Kopernicus in

  2. beliefs

  the following is a brief examination of one disturbing paragraph in the august 2016 study watchtower - "do you see the need to make spiritual progress?"11.

  what spiritual qualities can we work to develop, and why are they important?

  11 develop spiritual qualities.

  These watchtower articles use the fog . Fear, obligation, guilt.

  As if I owe them anything.

  I haven't been on their radar lately for pressuring to reach out.

  I must be considered a lost cause in their eyes.

  I miss at least half the meetings. I only report field service half the months. I don't give parts at the service meeting. I rarely comment.

  Life is good. The fade goes on.

  earlier this year it was announced to all congregations that the new silver songbook would ultimately be made of 150 songs, (matching the number of psalms in the bible).

  however, they've apparently changed there minds in the last few months, because songs 152-154 were just posted to both jw-org and jw broadcasting.. https://www.jw.org/en/whats-new/.
