There are 30 books of the Bible in this paragraph. Find them.
This is a most remarkable puzzle. It was found by a gentleman in an airplane seat pocket,
on a flight from Los Angeles to Honolulu, keeping him occupied for hours. He enjoyed it
so much, he passed it on to some friends. One friend from Illinois worked on this while
fishing in his john boat. Another friend studied while playing his banjo. Elaine Taylor, a
columnist friend was so intrigued by it, she mentioned it in her weekly newspaper column.
Another friend judges the job of solving this puzzle so involving, she brews a cup of tea to
help her nerves. There will be some names that are really easy to spot. That's a fact. Some
people, however, will soon find themselves in a jam, especially since the book names are
not necessarily capitalized. Truthfully, from answers we get, we are forced to admit it usually takes a minister or a scholar to see some of them at the worst. Research has
shown that something in our genes is responsible for the difficulty we have in seeing the
books in this paragraph. During a recent fundraising event which featured this puzzle, the
Alpa Delta Phi lemonade booth set a new record. The local paper, the Chronicle, surveyed
over 200 patrons who reported that this puzzle was one of the most difficult they had ever
seen. As Daniel Humana humbly puts it,"those able to find all of them will hear great
lamentations from those who have to be shown". One revelation that may help is that books
like Timothy and Samuel may occur without their numbers. Also, keep in mind, that punctuation
and spaces are normal. A chipper attitude will help you compete really well against those who claim to know the answers
Remember, there is no need for a mad exodus, there really are 30 books of the Bible lurking somewhere in this paragraph waiting to be found.
I will give you one clue "Honolulu, keeping" the book of Luke....

That's all I could find.

Strange but Sad!

by John Aquila in

i had a couple of elders come visit me about an hour ago.

they wanted to inform me that a brother who was well known throughout the circuit had died.

(i actually knew about it but did not go to the funeral) he was about to hit 90 years old, missed it by a few weeks.

Isn't disfellowshipping such a loving arrangement?

Video based indoctrination for children

by StarTrekAngel in

last night at the meeting we watched the "jehovah will help you be bold" video.

just another piece of propaganda to get children to recruit other children.

i was just reading another thread discussing the other video (where they guilt trip kids to give money) and i recalled a something from the video we watched last night.
