iam now as what was announced at a recent meeting that iam "no longer a jehovah's witness" all of my family and friends are witnesses so this will ailenate me from all of my friends and family.

but i feel like i don't want to go back.

i really hate the feeling of isolation and shamefulness while iam sitting in the meeting, what's the point of it all.

Did you want to be a MS?

do you think that if a brother didn't become a ministerial servant in a reasonable amount of time, that he was considered weak?

did you want to be a ms or did you prefer not to have any responsibilities in the congregation?

Initial Reactions-Assisting Inactive Program
by twain30 in

2. friends
a tremendous push has been made to help the inactive in our cong.

there is now an official list assigned to each book-study conductor which they must follow up on.

to me the obvious intent is to jump start the inactive or to label them as bad apples.

page 16 under talking about the good samanitan, par.

15 (quote) something else is noteworthy about jesus' reference to the road that went "down from jerusalem to jericho".

according to the story, first a priest and then a levite were also traveling that road-although neither stopped to help the victim (luke 10: 31, 32 ) the priests served at the temple in jerusalem and the levites assisted them.
