Gopher... I do not disagree with you when you say that the school is beneficial in helping one speak before groups of people. However, was it the continued counsel that you received OR was it the repetition of delivering talks that has made it easier for you to speak in front of any group?
For me, the latter holds true. Also, give the praise in public and give the counsel in private. OR...Let the audience counsel the Elders and Servants who go over on their parts! LOL!

Spice... I agree.
Path...Going overtime is DEFINITELY a disrespect to the audience! And I couldn't agree more that the worst ones are the ones that occur during Conventions and Thursday nights. And the lonnnnnnnnnng prayers by certain brothers who enjoy hearing themselves speak. Ugh!

Last night, Brother Gramaton* delivered the # 2 talk (Bible Reading). He received all of this "wonderful, upbuilding" counsel from Brother Hank*, the School Overseer. Ohhhh, however, Brother Hank threw a "BUT" in his counsel to Brother Gramaton: "But, your timing was 5 minutes and 17 seconds so we are going to have to ask you to work on that again."
Pet Peeve #1): Should counsel be made public? In school, did your teacher (or instructor) make public your grades? How does little Timmy or Suzie feel about getting told in front of the whole audience that his or her talk was a failure?
Continuing...
The "2nd half of the meeting (Service Meeting)" began and Brother Hank was assigned the last part (slated to be 20 minutes in length). Brother Hank wound up using 30 minutes for his 20 minute part.
Pet Peeve #2): How is Brother Hank going to counsel someone on 'Timing' for going 17 seconds over and then turn around and go 10 minutes over his alotted time?!? Also, what is the big deal with 'Timing' if Elders and Ministerial Servants almost ALWAYS go overtime on their Public Talks, Service Meeting parts, and the conducting of the Watchtower Study?

Answers about Witnessess & Non-Witnessess
by Overseer ini, myself are not a witness, i am 18, male and live in england.. six months ago i met a 17 year old jehovah's witness, became very attached to her and grew to love her.
her mother does not approve of the relationship at all and has resorted to threats to throw her out, grounding her, ignoring her, contacting elders, unless she discontinues seeing me.
first question: if her not seeing me makes her very unhappy and her seeing me makes her very happy-why is it wrong that we stay together?

Hi, Overseer.
Quick question: How did you arrive at the name 'Overseer'?

Treating the pioneers "Just So."
by LDH ini was reading jjrizo's thread about elders who take advantage of the kh, and i had a memory i'd like to share.
all my life growing up i had heard about how "jehovah takes care of those who put kingdom interests first.
" and all of those experiences on the platform about getting an envelope "with the exact rent amount due the day before we were to be evicted" and so on.

Another thought, Lisa...
Why was (is) it that, when one WASN'T (isn't) a pioneer, and they bought a new house or a new car, they were being "materialistic"?
Ah...but when a pioneer buys those same things, they are being blessed by Jehovah???
