That's Great!!!!
We need more people like you!
hello friends!today is a sad day for me, as seven months have gone by since my mother passed away after a decades-long fight with breast cancer..
because the witnessing/preaching/teaching work doesn't make any sense to me anymore; because it's not about any "truth"; and because it's basically useless, i've decided to quit doing it.
instead, i've decided to do something that actually can make a real difference in other people's lives.
That's Great!!!!

i tuned in to jw broadcasting to watch the september show and it wasn't there
i recieved the book on friday afternoon and finished it last night.
i thoroughly enjoyed it, particularly experiences you won't find in the yearbook.
my wife is now reading it (she was never a zombie) and is finding the terms used by jws and their meanings in simple terms very helpful since she reads this forum even though she is not a participant.
back in the day, when the co came to the congregation, it was quite stressful for the elders and often, the rank and file.
.
is it as big a deal as it used to be?.
Worse!
They have complete power now, no questions asked! They make all Appointments and Deletions, don't you dare question them. They have the same power as the Apostle Paul.
having just come back from the uk and spoke with some witnesses to find out how my old congregation is doing, i realized i am now the age that my elders were when i was a kid.
and i wonder what the elders who are now in their 60s and 70s are thinking when they look in the mirror and an old face looks back at them.
many of the elders in my old hall are now retired.
They are begging younger Brothers to "reach out".
We have 7 Elders; 2 in their 70's, 4 in the 60's and 1 in his 50's.
i have expressed in this forum that sometimes im confused as to what will be my ultimate decision.
at this point in my life there is too much at stake.
first, my own emotional estate, ill hate to bitterly regret the years expend taking unnecessary emotional abuse and theocratic bulling.
a friend at the convention told me that kenneth williams, a co in the houston texas area was recently removed and taken off the road.
does any one have any details?
heard a lot buzz for our upcoming convention.
those that already been were saying how great it was and all the videos that were presented.. well, thus far not impressed!
in fact many times pure insanity!
