Even my 6-year old son can recognize TRASH when he sees it. He threw a NWT into the public garbage can! Yay!
by Faithful Witness inwe were out walking in a small michigan community this weekend.
we came across a "free lending library" on the street corner.
the sign said, "take a book, leave a book, or do both!

) what did jesus mean when he said that to his father?.

We are escaping reality! It is time for our LONG-AWAITED vacation!! :)
by Faithful Witness ineach may, my husband takes me to the most wonderful place.
we escape to the jewel of our state, a small island where there are no cars, and the life is slow-paced and so relaxing.
we explore the history of the island, and the part it played in the american revolution.

Detroit International Convention, June 6-8 - IS the public invited?
by Faithful Witness inmy mom was worrying out loud, about inviting the "public" to this event.
she told me they were announcing that people were not booking their hotels fast enough, and "we don't want to make the jw's look bad!
she told me about a promotional video they all watched, full of propaganda about the ford field house and all the arrangements that had been made for transportation and parking, and the city of detroit.

My Elderette is attempting to change the subject again
by Faithful Witness inwe were in the middle of discussing their use of god's personal name, and miss k was not able to find one place in the bible, where jesus actually said the name out loud (that wasn't a quote from the ot).
we had started out by talking about jesus being "the way, the truth and the life.
" then she stated that one of the purposes of jesus' coming to earth, was "to make god's name known.

My JW Mom came for an impromptu visit yesterday. It went great! :)
by Faithful Witness init is so nice to start actually believing that my mom wants to have a relationship with me and my kids again.
there was awhile, where it was in question, and she wasn't sure if she was supposed to associate with us or not.
i think the stand that my sister has taken against me, is actually causing my mom to start doubting whether it is a good idea to follow this cruel example of "love" as defined by the watchtower.

Did I say too much, and scare away my elderette? What has happened to Miss K?
by Faithful Witness ini have had 3 sessions of what is most likely being tracked as a "bible study" with an elderette who is from the kh we stopped attending about 3-4 years ago.. after last week's visit and bible verse study, she asked me if she should return.
i had expressed concerns that she was a heretic, and i had a friend who had warned me not to let her into my house.
i told her i had to think about whether i wanted to study the bible teach book with her.
