Got a Visit Yesterday
by Nosferatu ini was at home last night, fixing some 8-track tapes, when i got a knock at the door.
the wife is out of town, so i'm wondering who the hell is knocking on my door.. i opened it, and there was my mother and another lady from my old congregation.
this lady is one of the few genuinely good people in the congregation.

Interesting how things seem to happen sometimes......
by troubled mind inever since i have begun this jw fade i have this strong desire to reconnect with those i have shunned in my past.
thankfully my own brother and wife have accepted my heartfelt apologizes and are now a part of my life again.
on my husband 's side of the family he has a brother he has not seen in about 12 years.

How does mainstream Christianity explain "Other Sheep"?
by Alana ini'm preparing for a potential discussion with my mom and, especially if it occurs near this memorial time, the discussion may contain the "other sheep" and how they are different and shouldn't partake of the emblems, etc.
i know that i probably have this information researched already, but since my last move i can't find some my research materials.
i could also ask the pastor of the church i attend, but that involves too much discussion as to what the jw's believe, etc.
