So who is ready, willing, and able to take out their local KH
by Check_Your_Premises inon a few threads now we have had the discussion of how to take out a local kh.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/90925/1.ashx.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/90940/1.ashx.
the consensus seemed to be that it would require a two pronged approach.. 1. help the newly df, da through loving support and association so they don't go back.. 2. help the new bible studies and return visits with a good inocculation from the "jw are god's org" disease.. let's not talk about how to do that just yet.

Topics for ApostaTract
by TheListener inthis has been discussed on several threads but i need concrete ideas.
i want to start putting together a generic tract to give to ones i've know who are df'd, faded, da'd or weak.
i want the tract to be loving, gentle and kind but honest.. my ideas so far (all of these or others' ideas can't fit into one simple tract, but can be the basis for a series of tracts that can be on topics that we know may interest a particular dub).. -dogmatism vs. reasonableness .
