What's your expierence at a DUB wedding/reception?
by stillAwitness ini'm invited to wedding/reception tomorrow (on christmas-naturally) only reason i'm going is because its my one chance to get new shoes, dress, the whole bit at my mother's expense (since she seems to think i will find my future middle-aged elder husband at one of these functions)
i definetly plan to buy one of those mini-bottles of seagrams and get buzzed of course.
who wants to listen to 10 different speeches from family and friends about "how wonderful this spiritual union is of so and so) yawn!

WHAT'S NEW? DOORSTEP BIBLE STUDIES!
by stillAwitness inso i'm in service this morning and the young sister i was working with had what they call now a "doorstep bible study" .
its been encouraged by the fds that if one has a regular return visit with an interested one that one can hold a bible study by having them read one or two paragraphs out of the require brochure and ask the questions right at their doorstep.. i've never actually seen it done and boy let me tell you it was the most awkard, ridiculous thing i have ever seen!
the poor sister (who was nothing older thatn 15) is standing at the door having this grown woman read a paragraph out of the require brochure, and after having her ansewring the question and read a scripture she then then tells her she'll see her next week!

WHY CAN'T THE FDS JUST LEAVE US 'YOUNG PEOPLE" ALONE?!
by stillAwitness inat the service meeting tonight we went over this week's scheduled bible reading at 1) chronicles 10-12. the brother explaining the bible reading explained the example for young people:.
" what can we learn this week young people from rehoboam's example?
that when you have problems as much as you may be inclined to seek the advice of your fellow peers you should seek out the "older men" in the congregation for help.

DOES GOD HAVE PERSONALITY-BASED ON MOVIE:BRUCE ALMIGHTY
by stillAwitness inbruce almighty- the whole premise of the movie is that the majority of the things we ask god for are things that we ourselves can look into our own hearts and make happen for ourselves.
i debated this movie with a friend.
he insists that god wants us to pray to him no matter what it is and that the scenes in the movie showing jim carrey being overwhelmed by all the "prayers" being asked of him is false.

JW MOM OF BIGGIE SMALLS MAKES JW JOKE!
by stillAwitness involetta walace-mother of the notorius b-i-g aka: biggie smalls has wrote a new book about her life and her son.
so, i am listening to her radio interview and she decribes how she lives a very simple life-simple home, drives an acura, hardly goes into the city (hmmm, sounds like a loyal jw to me!
) and when asked how she reacts when people recognize her on the street but can't seem to place her face?
