If you have not already, begin to research this organization and its teachings. Read about cults, mind control, the BITE model. If you cannot physically free yourself, mentally free yourself, that way when you are able, you can break the cycle mentally and emotionally and never get sucked back in.

JTrottigy: I'm not sure if you are real or not...the posts are so over the top they are humorous, but if you are the real deal, how about some feedback on this?

At one time, I thought early Christians went door-to-door or house-to-house in the same manner JWs do. But it doesn't hold up when you examine the "prooftexts". In reality, it turns out Christians held meetings or studies in the private homes of various believers, "according to houses".

If this is for real...what do you say when you call the congregation? And the secretary just gives you, a stranger, this information?
Do you tell them you run an "unauthorized" JW website? And what do they say to that? Since this is officially against the direction of the Governing Body (at least in print and in talks), how do you get elders to assent to giving you the information? And if you do not tell them of the reasons for your information request, are you truly being honest? And for those in the EU...does this comply with their information sharing laws?

Evolution of a congregation 1978- 2018
by joey jojo inour whole congregation was excited as we stood in front of our brand new kh and smiled for the photographer from the local newspaper.. for years we had been travelling 30 mins each way to attend the meetings and now, after a big effort of donations and hard work we finally had our own kh in our own town.
in the picture, there were 45 smiling faces of all ages, from the newborn to the old brother that had turned 100 and everyone in between.
the year was 1978.. the congregation grew and shrank over the years, probably hitting its peak during the 80's and 90's, there was even a renovation in the early 90's that the local brothers donated towards, for the benefit of the local town to hear the good news about the imminent arrival of the end.

Just asked JW wife to quit
by rathernotsay inso i wont get into why i asked my jw wife to leave... theres another thread for that lol... but more out of pure curiosity i asked her just now... "in order to save this marriage would you leave the jws?
", it was a snap call no, like not even a second to pause and think about it, which kinda took me back a bit, followed by a angry "why would you ask me that now?
" (shes going out witnessing with my kids and her friends).

Whatever you do, don't play the part of the "opposer".
JWs are indoctrinated to expect "persecution" or opposition from non-JW family...and there is a very low-bar for what constitutes this in the JW mindset. When, in their perception, they receive "family opposition", it reaffirms the belief system. It can also cause the "backfire" effect and make her more entrenched.
One of the three grounds for separation is "spiritual endangerment". I've seen the "spiritual endangerment" card played, in some cases, encouraged by the elders.
I'm sure when she went out in field service, she told her car group about this, and they were there to support her through this 'trial'.

The myth of the Finished Mystery book is useful for Watchtower. But they count on members not actually reading it.

Ministry experiences
by Freedom rocks inhi does anyone have any bad ministry experiences to share or really funny ones?.
some of mine were:.
- having water sprayed on us with a hose.

One time, a householder was washing their car and put the hose on the bumper. Well, the hose fell to the pavement handle first, and sprayed us. No biggie. It was actually refreshing.
Every door was pure anxiety for me. Just talking to stranger about religion was a bad enough experience. Being yelled at and so forth was just icing on the cake.
