  @ geevee

  If a men was disfellowshipped, and later reinstated, he has to be a brave publisher for 5 years (since reinstated) - before he can be a MS.

  @ PlatinumFix

  As a "brave" JW I always thougt, that the requirements for appointed men are "all" in the bible.

  But then I learnd the hard way a lot of unwritten watchtower rules:
  
  - DF / DA must be passed 5 years or more
  - you have to do about 10 hours every month
  - not allowed is a annual average of 10 hours
  - you must be seen by other publishers/elders in the field service
  - you must be leading in the group activities
  - you must be a good example in cleaning and maintenance the hall
  - regular giving answers in the hall (in our hall the elder write down all persons who give answers for the bible highlights)
  - regular welcome other publishers in the hall

  And for example: biblical requirement hospitality was not required in my hall. It was only field service.

  Turnersville Assembly Hall

  by jdubsnub in

  the congregation i'm associated with had their assembly recently and i decided to go for one day.

  i could not believe how much it felt like one of those mega churches you see on tv.

  they've added now 2 very large tv screens on each side of the speaker as well as a monstrous projection screen above.

  JW.Org

  by Kool Jo in

  2. beliefs

  i've been pondering......with this new "push" to direct individuals to thw jw.org website, even when the dubs are out preaching...what do you think the future will be for the preaching work?.

  some time ago i read that the mormons have implemented a live chat feature that allows you to speak with their missionaries....i doubt the borg would do this, but i think they have something up their sleeves.. peace.

  the future:

  - publishers perform short (1 or 2 minutes) offers on the doors - giving the householder a tract or a small business card with QR-Code or JW.ORG

  - pioneers have the portable display - also with the goal, that interested people come to JW.ORG

  - interested people will ask for a "study" through jw.org

  - pioneers or other "high performers" in the congregation will handle the "studies"

  Standing on Street Corners, Counting Time - the Impotent Future of Preaching

  by passwordprotected in

  2. beliefs

  you see them all over the place now, 2 or 3 of them standing near a portable display of bible-based literature, chatting to each other.

  counting time.. i've seen them in london, glasgow and cluj (romania).

  the portable display is always the same.

  This is a list of DCs and year's texts. It shows a different text for 1914.

  I do not belief, that the GB will take the same year's text 100 years later.
