    1.)We must be reaching out.

    2.)Where there is a greater need.

    Personally, hated these
    propaganda words including
    being called "brother."

    Horrible propaganda words that I can't
    believe I fell for.

    I hated being referred to as 'auntie' - makes me feel really old and it was odd how it happened so quickly after joining. Also, someone on here once said that its giving the kids a false sense of security calling potential strangers 'brother' and 'auntie'. I agree.

    Could someone explain what 'agape' love is please?

    I looked it up and it said it was Christian love as distinct from erotic love or emotional affection.

    I still don't understand. Its love but not an emotional affection? What kind of love is it then? I think I may feel offended if someone signed a card with agape love written in it. Were you offended Mamma?

    hospitality - as in, shall we provide the public speaker hospitality as no one else has offered. Oh, great, so not only do we have to spend all morning studying the watchtower, then the afternoon at the meeting but we also have to spend the rest of whats left of the day sitting still being well behaved listening to spiritually uplifting conversation (and there's another expression I hate!)

    keep your eyes on the prize (thats the one neatly wrapped up in the WT which is actually an empty box)

    serving where the need is greater - lets just move half a dozen time and completly f**k up your education
