I'm not particularly keen on the expression 'woke up' i think it may suggest that i was sleeping which i don't believe I was. I was raised as a witness and baptised accepting the good news of Matt. 24:14 and it's fulfilment as preached by those who said they were commissioned to do so. As long as I was convinced of this I remained a witness. When there was a change in the understanding of scriptures associated with this verse and I no longer felt convinced, I could no longer participate in the witness work and so I stopped engaging in it.

What woke you up?
by Israel Ricky Gonzales inin march of 2014, i was a very active jw, a ministerial servant, gave a public talk, was an attendant for the memorial, and one of 4 cleaning captains for an international convention of 40,000+ attendees.
so what woke me up?
an innocent comment from a co-worker about the candice conti court case rang a bell that could not be unrung.

What were you favorite book in the organization? I know what you're thinking...LOL!
by BashfulAshG inwhat were *your favorite *books in the organization?.
out of all of those books, i liked "mankind's search for god.
" however, it appears to me that this book is incredibly obscure and no one recalls studying it during the old book study format.

Most of the books were studied at one of the meetings and I cant say I ever felt I enjoyed them there so why would I take time to read them.
So I would have to go for one of the shorter ones as being favourite, could be any.
Since I don't attend any more I would say "God's Eternal Purpose Now Triumphing" For Man's Good
