To Current and Former Elders
by Styxx ini wanted to say a few things to current and former elders.
it was really a post by alltimejeff on 10/1/2009 that got me thinking about this and i address a few things that he says here.
but i dont want to single him out because i really think that he is typical of many, and he did in fact apologize for his actions at the end of his post.

Apprehension about the holidays
by greenie inso...i've been feeling a tightness in my chest thinking about the upcoming holiday season.
you know, october = halloween; november=thanksgiving; december=christmas, etc.
i'm not sure how to approach them with my dub (for those who don't know, i'm a non-jw, never have been one, never will be).

(1 corinthians 9:16) he was not casual about the good news because preaching it meant life for himself and his hearers.
(1 timothy 4:16) we view our ministry in the same way.
