For Those of You Who Still Serve... How Do You Do It?

new here... been lurking for some time now.... i still serve... but with each passing day, it gets harder and harder.

i'm slowly... slowly working on my wife (i call her mrs. hardcore) and even my m-i-l (who taught my wife how to be hardcore).

making some amazing progress... they are still hardcore... but unrecognizable from a couple years ago!.

Get every chance you have to skip meetings or service. I stopped going on field service about 10 months ago. I wasn't very regular to begin with but I felt bad and I didn't do it. I no longer feel bad about it. At first, I actually told my wife that I did not feel comfortable going out on FS with anyone else but her. That not only made her happy, but it allowed me to not have to have uncomfortable conversations with anyone. At some point she offered to have me just watch after the kids, who have a tendency to play with stray dogs, while she did the talking. I would help her from time to time with a bible verse. My wife has a tendency to concentrate on spiritual issues, not so much on magazine articles so it was somewhat ok.

After a while we stopped going and to this day I have no idea why my wife no longer insists in going to FS. I had to keep doing the MS until this last time, about a month ago, when I was supposed to give a talk on family worship. I took a chance that the asshole MS servant was out of town and I talked to one of the more reasonable elders in the cong and told him I was not going to do it. Told him I felt like a hypocrite doing a talk on something I wasn't practicing and he understood. I took the chance to add that I was having a lot of stress at work and that I would rather not take on anymore assignments for the time being.

I still go to meeting for my wife but I spend most of the meeting reading the bible. Something I had not done before.

Look at the facebook comment portion. The first two comments posted was from a JW who was trying to convince himself the recording was from an apostate source.

millie, they did try to trademark their logo but it was denied. They still show the TM next to the logo but is not a registered TM
