This was interesting to hear. I still don't celebrate a lot of the holidays because of the real history of them. Birthday I do celebrate because it is another year of living. Much love to y'all ✌🏽
I love life after that life. I love getting up on Sunday mornings and washing our cars and fueling up for the week and chill out. I love getting up on some Saturdays and going fishing for fish, not people.
I Loved that! Yes, holidays are fun but a bit much to keep up with. Lol. I’d rather travel and send cards. As someone now spiritual but not religious, I’ve experienced too many metaphysical things throughout my life to believe that “the angels only protect you when you’re in field service”. Jeffrey Allen has an energy work program I’ve enjoyed called Duality. I had to read Ekhart Tolle VERY SLOWLY, lol, and I feel a need to read him again, because it’s been a minute, and there were paragraphs that seemed to ‘lift the veil’ so to speak. That book is all marked up, highlighted, and underlined…like a GD Watchtower study mag. 😂 I wanted to go to the event in DC, but i still have some barriers in my way. I hope to attend in the future though. So I hope you don’t stop having these events. Even if the initial attendance is small. As many of us EXJWs out here as there are, eventually we will get past the hurdles and the fears and join you in person. Just know that seeing YOU doing YOU inspires me to want to do the same. 💞
We hope we see you next year as well! It’s nice speaking with and inquiring how people’s beliefs have evolved and changed. Makes for very interesting conversation. And thank you 🩷
Hi 👋. I found your story on JT and Lady Cee's wonderful channel, The Critical Thinker. My dad's side of the family practiced worship in the kingdom hall. I have find it a disgrace to put Jehovah's name in what they do...but anyway much love to you from Houston TX.
I love this, my last comment on your video was really more fitting for this video.. but again thank you two so much for keeping the content coming.. and being bold enough to share it the way you do.. thanks to those couple for sharing their story too.. much appreciated
In Hawaii, JW men can wear Hawaiian shirts at the meetings and district conventions now. Before, they can only wear it during field service while wearing suits at the hall. People at the stores might be wondering why their clothing businesses have been booming. I can’t help but laugh when I see them on Instagram looking different with all their attire changes at hall, especially the beards and women wearing slacks.
This looked like so much fun! And, all came with different perspectives and no one got kicked out of the group for it 😂 I've met so many people who had some sort of experience with the JWs. One woman said her sister became one and then cut the family off, but she didn't know why. She thought her sister was just upset at something.
The people don't want to hear the truth. They want to have their ears tickled. I visit Kingdom Halls very seldom. I never gave up on serving Jehovah, as a retired teacher, I have received my 100-fold and continue teaching every day. Humans are imperfect, get over it, shake it off like a bad hangover! Here is where the rubber meets the pavement, enjoy. When the scrolls are opened, they will see everything. What the people don't realize is the scrolls are a record of everything that has happened in their lives. They can look up anything and forward to any date, time, event and you will be held accountable for everything you have done. We will all be held accountable. Jehovah, Jesus and the angels will be going through the scrolls conferring with one another, to approve you for earth only or to allow you into heaven or destruction. When judgment day comes. The people will say we're sorry, we didn't know. And Jehovah will be with Jesus and say, I sent my people to your house almost every weekend with free magazines and offering a free personal study about the Kingdom of God and what did you do? I feel sorry for them because as we know from the Bible most of these wicked people will be destroyed. The ones who rejected God and honored the son. They're not going to receive everlasting life, they will go into the winepress, chopped up and left in the fields for the birds to eat. Life is good. The key to happiness is, stay away from the wicked. Have a nice day! @MikesStoryNumber 3 hours ago When that day comes, the scroll concerning me will be unreadable, it will be blotted out , and Jesus will say, no worries he is with me! Reply @Biff-rrd 0 seconds ago @MikesStoryNumber If you have blotted it out, you won't be seeing Jesus, more like the lake of fire!
It was the same here in New Mexico. We would go to the Spanish meetings to learn Spanish and because they had more get togethers. It was seen as being more worldly. They partied too much and were probably too happy. I remember the constant local needs trying to get them to shun. Latino families are tight and they could not get them to fully shun their kids.
If you read the Samaritan woman in Jesus Bible story if you noticed he said worshiping at the top of the mountain and worshiping at the temple will be obsolete it's getting to the point in this time frame that all places of worship will be tainted and you must know God's 66 books aka the Bible yourself and you must be the temple where God resides
Do the Vegas meet up for ex- JW's there are still so many of us that need the socials - we left everything behind I will be there! Do Wet Do Wet!!! Plan it like you will be here because more than likely you will be. I've been wanting to press the exit sign for years and I keep waking up.🤣🤣🤣🤣
I thought r religious and spiritual was the same thing lol and my experience going to church and never went again because the preacher talked about heaven and hell he said that "I don't care who you are hell is in the Bible" and he know I was one of JW so he looked straight at me when he said that, it made it feel uncomfortable
Let us not forget our spiritual training that most of the holidays that people of the world celebrate are pagan. Christmas the Easter the Halloween all pagan and have some type of demonic origin. So since we know that we still have to be on our guard. Just because we don't go to the hall or belong to the religion doesn't mean that we are not representatives of Jehovah. I can only speak for myself that my baptism was for Jehovah not any organization. Weather being in the religion or not Jehovah expects us to do our utmost in proving Satan a liar in this world. The watchtower might have new light but God's word the Bible never changes. So continue to show your light to the world that needs it and glorify Jehovah as your God, and be the best Witness for Jehovah NOT A JW and he will recognize your efforts and bless you FOR YOUR EARNEST EFFORTS. Continue to make your videos don't you know Jehovah is using u to expose the hypocrisy of the Watchtower. It says in the scriptures that Jehovah will start to pass judgment first in his house. Are we not seeing this take place at this very moment?
This was interesting to hear. I still don't celebrate a lot of the holidays because of the real history of them. Birthday I do celebrate because it is another year of living. Much love to y'all ✌🏽
Totally understand that, it’s nice to have the freedom of choice! Peace and love to you as well 😊

Yesss!! We were just talking this past Sunday about what a relief it is to be able to decide what we want to do with our time
Omg! The intro to this video was hilarious! 😂. Loved it! Ya’all were having too much fun without me. Next time for sure.
You would have been a great addition!! We would’ve been partying it up lol

After leaving jws, it takes some time to deprogram your mind, body and soul. Live every day to your fullest and be patient with yourself. ♥
Love this 🩷

Great video kids. Rooting for yall
And we’re rooting back!! ☺️
I love this, my last comment on your video was really more fitting for this video.. but again thank you two so much for keeping the content coming.. and being bold enough to share it the way you do.. thanks to those couple for sharing their story too.. much appreciated
I loved this discussion ❤ 😊 The Power of Now is a good one. I should reread it too! 💕
I’m definitely going to double back on it! I’m sure I’ll gain better understanding now
It's great to see you guys laughing about this together. You guys are so lucky to have escaped so young....
Anybody who escaped should consider themselves to be lucky 🍀
This was great…. Everyone gets to see me while I’m semi intoxicated 🤦🏾♂️😂
You were the main character🤣🙌🏽
When I left, I didn't care nor acknowledge the Holidays. It wasn't until I met my husband I started to participate. He takes Holidays very seriously.
It’s nice just having the freedom to choose
You guys always get love from me. Thumbs UP all the time and shared. A++++
Thank you so much!!!

Never knew that about Hawaii! But yeah i know right. And the members just happily follow these “happy changes” without question
I would have loved to be there and kick it with you all.
We would’ve had fun!
Great Job Thanks 🎉

Hi 👋🏻
Destroy my book of Bible stories,
And destructive evil.
I was Jehovah's witness for 14 years and disfellowshipped for ten years could not celebrate Christmas birthdays and voting
Shot out to all my fellow exjw’s of color! I would love to hear yall sound off on the anti blackness and black cultural erasure we had to deal with!
We’ve made topics like that! Check them out in our past videos

I glad you guys see some light but it seem like this shouldn't be taken lightly following jesus foreal.
Speaking for jeven and i we do not follow Jesus
is J ROD there too.
I’m interested to know what denomination is saying babies are en enemy of God 😮. I’ve never heard that before as a Christian.
Isnt it odd that there even is denominations lol
Y’all ending up in the back room ASAP!
🤣🤣
Lmao at the intro
🤣🤣🤣
Jeron 0:43😂❤
🤣🤣🤣
If you all are celebrating Halloween and Christmas, seems like you weren’t trying to be a Christian in the first place. JW or not.
Speaking for jeven and i…we are not christians
Yeah that Mormon could cash in on the death insurance and end the marriage at the same time how convenient
Very interesting👀
