  what is your weirdest experience at a kh?.

  one sunday, a kind older brother raised his hand to comment, all of a sudden, his foot shot out, he fell off his chair and started to shake.

  everyone was hushed and shocked.

  Convention Drama creeps out JWs?

  by ezekiel3 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am getting news from jws who have attended the district convention that the drama (which is pre-recorded and played to lip-syncing actors) has a demon-possessed woman with a ?demonic voice?.

  can anyone confirm this?

  it is said to be pretty creepy sound effect and many jws are uncomfortable when they hear it.

  by how many people

  even more so how many people you meet here and after getting a chance to know them, learn they know some of the very same people you do?

  (for example i met a woman here on the board whom i have never met personally but she knows some people that i grew up, even the 'brother' who gave me my first kiss..

  Poll - What kind of Ancient People are YOU???

  by LittleToe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  are you: a minority group called "jew" a majority group called "greek" a minority group called "christian"

  to believe in christ, the jews asked for a powerful sign, before they would believe.. to believe in christ, the greeks appealed to logic and wisdom, before they would believe.. to believe in christ, the christians simply believed, and treated it as a personal calling.. which category do you believe you fall into 1, 2 or 3?.

  .. 1cor.1:22-25 - the message.
