WT desparate: Aug 15 WT- In Our Next Issue: When A Loved One Leaves Jehovah
by truthseeker inno, i don't have this article yet, it will appear in the sep 1, 2006 wt.
it may even be a wt study article.. in the august 15 watchtower, the box "in our next issue" has three forthcoming articles, and one of them is "when a loved one leaves jehovah".
of interest, it's not when a loved one leaves the society, it's jehovah.. will keep you posted.

Beginning the road out.
by wozadummy inyes i'm new to this forum and i have been searching the net and reading with interest peoples comments here and on other sites.
as most know reaching out as a faithfull jw to others outside of the congregation is difficult at first ,as i guess we think anyone outside the congregation is wordly etc.
and we can't open up easily to "strangers" as jehovah would not approve.

My wife is a JW, I'm not.
by Mrgij01 inmy wife and i have been married 6 years now.
she was a jw when we married as is her entire family.
i was, and still am, very attracted to her because of the way she carries herself and her compassion.. i would like anyone who has had a similar experiance or was a jw to better help me understand what is going on in their heads when it comes to birthdays and such.

Please welcome my buddy
by sass_my_frass inhey, just hoping i can encourage my friend (a long-time lurker) in some way during a difficult time.
i'm trying to help my (anonymous, genderless, of mysterious location...) friend appreciate the joy of being true to yourself and thus discovering many kinds of freedom.
it's a rough time, more so for some than others.

Part 1: How Would You Answer This Issue?
by Amazing1914 inpart 1:
when we were faced with tough issues as jws, we used one or more of a few ways to find answers.
we either searched the publications, consulted with an elder, or in some cases, wrote to the society.

Just had a visit from my mom
by Bumble Bee inabout two weeks ago, i had a fallout with my mother and sister.
they totally overreacted to a situation and said some pretty nasty things, called me apostate and said they never wanted to see me again.
i tried my hardest to not react the same way, and try to explain some things but they didn't want to listen.

Jehovah's Witness skating parties were da bomb!
by PaNiCAtTaCk inwas this just a local arkansas thing or were jw's everywhere getting jiggy at the skating rink?
we used to have awesome skating parties and witnesses from 150 miles away would come sometimes.
or sometimes we would drive that far to go to one.

Need help with doctrinal changes
by Bumble Bee ini've started to talk to hubby about things.
i started with the lack of love in the congs and he readily agrees.
how "worldly" friends are so much more loving than the so called jw "friends" (which we don't have anymore).. next i'd like to talk about the changes the "society" has made in recent years, how it's so hard to keep up with things now, it changes all the time.. can you help me with a list of changes and some wt references that i can discuss with him?.
