  What would you do for next November 5?

  by Faded in

  i think everything has to start somewhere, and you can see the passion and commitment from those loyal 50 that showed up in warwick yesterday.

  the event was not very well organized but you could see the passion & dedication from most of them.

  and i think they at least touched a couple of people at the kh yesterday.. having an annual day of action actually inspires me.

  Attitude in Kingdom Hall vs. in church

  by Yesu Kristo Bwana Wangu in

  so, today i went to a different church than the jw's for the first time in over three years.. it is a protestant african church.

  my first thoughts: for people who are 'trapped in babylon the great (according to watchtower) these people really seem genuingly happy and sincere in their adoration for god.

  what a freedom compared to the witnesses!

  Trenton NJ Convention... Some Brief mpressions

  by Room 215 in

  peak attendance (sunday): 5,645; 26 baptized.

  general impression: "convention light"-- i.e.

  entertainment value:(previously nil) now enhanced by leavening the boring talks with interspersed video.

  Had a weird love-bombing throwback today......

  my wife is having her first birthday party in july, and we're looking for a place to hold it.

  we found an episcopal church online that offered their fellowship hall for such occasions, and we went to check it out this morning.

  when we arrived they were having something in the hall and were setting up for it.

  Did Jesus attend a "worldly celebration"?

  hello community,.

  my question in a nutshell is whether there is justification in celebrating worldly holidays, such as the 4th of july in the usa?.

  let's look at a parallel.

  How did you find the truth? - the loaded question.

  had dinner this weekend with a jw family and met a bunch of new jws.

  one of them who was not very talkative at all and out of the blue asked me how i found "the truth".

  i answered how my family has always been starting with my great grandfather.. then he clarified his question.. he said something about how this is a great question and people always talk about their spiritual heritage.

  Was There Anything You Actually Enjoyed About Being A JW?

  by MrFreeze in

  i'm sure this question has been raised a lot but it is always good to look back.

  the last 5 or 6 years of me being a jw, i did not have a very good go of it.

  one thing i actually did enjoy was going to the international convention.
