A "killer" question for Jehovah's Witnesses
by Terry inhere is a 'killer' question for jw's.
which description best describes how you see yourself and how you feel?which would you choose?
are you: 1. a christian 2. a jehovah's witness here's the scenario.

They'd probably say "Jehovah's Witness" because they think they're the only real Christians and because they want to work the name Jehovah into conversations and prayers as much as they can.

If "worldly" people compared JWs to locusts, they would holler, "Persecution!"

Any signs that Kingdom Halls will re-open soon or door to door work will re-start again?
by eyeslice ini've not heard anything from pimi wife about going back to the khs yet let alone the door to door work.. many churches round here have re-opened if only for private pray and i am guessing that things like singing may be a factor in the reluctance of the witnesses to get back together again.
i also detect that many older ones are still quite afraid to go anywhere they may come in contact with people, even for shopping.
on the other hand, here in uk you can now go to a football match with 70,000 others shouting and chanting.. the door to door work may a total different issue.

1995 generation change
by Gorb innow, many years later, i remember the 1995 generation change, very well.. since early youth, hearing my father explaining in field service the 2520 years.
it was his main theme in the field.. with the change my doubts started.
with some jw friends we did not trust the organization anymore.

They had to make some sort of change.
The "within one generation" of 1914 (remember the arrow illustration?) clearly wouldn't wash any more.
Instead of admitting they don't know what they're talking about, they bought the organization more time with the overlapping generation explanation.
A lot of people didn't buy it, of course, but a lot did.

The Truth about the Truth
by Iamallcool inif jw wants to know the truth about the truth, what will you talk about first?

You won't be successful with a one size fits all approach.
Things that were big to me might not affect them at all.
Things that I didn't care about might be what troubles them the most.
So I'd start out by letting let their questions and concerns establish the agenda.
Occasionally it might be necessary to try to expand their area of inquiry, but this should be done in bite sizes rather than by trying to lay everything on them at once.
