  3. Hello everyone! As we wait for the June 2026 JW Broadcasting program, many of us are wondering what this month's feature will be. One possibility is coverage of the 159th Class of Gilead Graduation. If so, it would be encouraging to hear experiences from the graduates, learn about their assignments, and receive upbuilding spiritual reminders from the program. Of course, we will have to wait and see what Jehovah's organization has prepared, but a Gilead graduation program would certainly be a special treat. What are your expectations for the June 2026 episode? Do you think it could feature the 159th Gilead graduation, or do you expect something different? Looking forward to your thoughts! 😊
  4. I have been working on KH building projects since I was in my teens. From the old days when it took years to build a KH through Quick Builds, RBC and LDC. This song is about working on such projects Working With LDC
  5. Every day something new that wasn't there the days before. The frustration is rising. I too had this identify yourself on by surface pro device at the hall. entered the credentials but every time I exited the program and powered the surface pro down and restarted the identify problem reappeared again. Did the drastic method. Disconnected from the server. powered down the device. Restarted and launched NWS. now again all the credentials plus the code sent to my email address and I connected. Then I thought let me click through all the listed icons on the left side. Even though the sharing was fine, there were two the APP and the ME icon that after clicking was blank and displayed a prompt and I believe it was reconnect. After clicking on both the identify went away on the Surface Pro. Then I powered down the PC and started NWS. It was working flawless before and now it says identify yourself. For crying out loud. So I identified myself, got a code to my email address, entered that went through the same procedure by clicking on all the icons and it started behaving now also on the PC. I can't shake the feeling that the feature updates threw a monkey wrench/spanner into the works. Here is a warning if you change permissions on a device that has administrative privileges, like giving yourself edit privileges on the CLM part, expect to go through the hassle of solving the identify problem.
  6. We had a get together put on by one of our elders. It is a yearly family tradition. He belongs to a band of brothers whose fist letter of their names is name of the band that played. They did a circle form of a line dance. I asked him later if it was a spaghetti line dance ( he is of Italian descent ). At first he was puzzled until I mention spaghetti westerns then he laughed and said Maybe.
  7. AI picks up patterns. It does not have a bias but learns from the data it is trained on. There is a lot of negative data out there about JWs.
  8. As of May 31, 2026 at 21:51:11 Eastern Time Too bad it wasn't at 19:14 or 14:40:00 lol just joking
  9. I have had a physical copy of Walk Courageously With God ordered for quite some time. But I haven't seen or heard anything about it.
  10. JWST captures the most chemically "primitive" galaxy in the ancient universe https://www.livescience.com/space/astronomy/astonishing-james-webb-telescope-spots-the-most-chemically-primitive-galaxy-in-the-ancient-universe Thanks to Webb's advanced infrared instruments and spectrometers, scientists can now peer behind this veil and see how galaxies have evolved since the earliest cosmological epochs. In a recent discovery, an international team of astronomers used Webb and the gravitational lensing technique to capture a rare look at LAP1-B, an ultra-faint galaxy that existed 800 million years after the Big Bang. Using Webb's spectrometers, the team was able to definitively characterize this galaxy, revealing it to be the most metal-poor galaxy in the early Universe observed to date. In the immediate aftermath of the Big Bang, the universe contained only light elements such as hydrogen and helium, while the elements necessary for life (carbon, oxygen, etc.) were absent. These elements were forged in the interiors of the first generation of stars (Population III), which were then dispersed when these stars went supernova and blew off their external layers. For decades, astronomers have been hoping to find these stars so they could witness the moment they began seeding the Universe with heavier elements. This has been problematic since the earliest galaxies that hosted Population III stars appear so small and faint. As a result, determining their chemical makeup through spectroscopy was thought to be nearly impossible until now. The work of Nakajima builds on initial detections of LAP1-B by adding JWST spectra to the picture, revealing a record-low oxygen abundance (1/240th that of the sun). When combined with an elevated carbon-to-oxygen ratio and a dominant dark matter halo, these findings suggest that LAP1-B is a progenitor to the fossil galaxies found near the Milky Way. Astronomers have been searching for these "ancestor" galaxies, making LAP1-B a historic window into the earliest stages of galaxy formation.
  11. Latest CFSv2 Forecast, This is the biggest forecast ever and this thing continues to grow.
  12. Tiktok? Really? Better than Facebook, I suppose. This should be interesting to say the least. I'm on IG and Threads.
  13. Yesterday
  14. The verified badge on Instagram has been removed, and the links have been updated. We’ll see what happens next. Things seems to have calmed down. It’s the end of the month, so you know gotta pay those subscriptions. 😅
  15. "Walk Courageously With God" ??
  16. I'm guessing it was the next book we will study at the midweek meeting starting on July: Walk Courageously With God. Until you receive the physical book, you could use the digital edition: https://www.jw.org/download/?output=html&pub=wcg&fileformat=PDF%2CEPUB%2CJWPUB%2CRTF%2CTXT%2CBRL%2CBES%2CDAISY&alllangs=0&langwritten=E&txtCMSLang=E&isBible=0 You can also find it on JW Library under LIBRARY > BOOKS.
  17. To be honest, I've always found that brother to be a little absent-minded. But the ransom covers that. 😁
  18. Graduation rates add to employment Z G O E N
  19. Enthusiasts often confuse words like 'piece' and 'peace', as well as to, too and two.
  20. Thank you Sister Nelly for sharing those encouraging points from the talk. This also reminded me of one of the interviews with Brother Negede, in Eritrea. Where he said something like ... After awhile I started praying for Endurance, and not just please help me to get out of here.
  21. A blind man walked into a bar, then a table, then a pole, then the counter.
  22. Monday, June 1 For you, O Jehovah, are good and ready to forgive.—Ps. 86:5. We are already benefiting from Christ’s ransom sacrifice. For example, on the basis of the ransom, Jehovah forgives our sins. He is not obligated to forgive us. But he wants to. (Ps. 103:3, 10-13) Some may feel unworthy of Jehovah’s forgiveness. Actually, we are all unworthy. The apostle Paul understood that he was “not worthy of being called an apostle.” And yet, he added: “By God’s undeserved kindness I am what I am.” (1 Cor. 15:9, 10) When we repent of our sins, Jehovah forgives us. Why? Not because we deserve it, but because he loves us. If you are disturbed by feelings of unworthiness, remember that Jehovah provided the ransom, not for sinless people, but for repentant sinners.—Luke 5:32; 1 Tim. 1:15. w25.01 26-27 ¶3-4

    • Modern references to creative days:
       
      *** w15 6/1 p. 5 How Science Affects Your Life ***
      The Bible fixes no duration for the six creative “days.” Instead, it opens the door for modern scientists to study them and assign accurate time spans to them. We know that the creative “days” were much longer than 24-hour days.
       
      *** g21 No. 3 p. 12 What the Bible Tells Us ***
      So each of the six creative “days” during which God prepared the earth for life and created life on it could represent extremely long periods of time.
       
      *** g 1/14 p. 12 Creation ***
      WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God created the universe, including the earth, in the indefinite past—“in the beginning,” as Genesis 1:1 says. Modern science agrees that the universe had a beginning. A recent scientific model suggests it to be almost 14 billion years old.
       
      *** lc pp. 26 Science and the Genesis Account ***
      A careful consideration of the Genesis account reveals that events starting during one “day” continued into one or more of the following “days.”

      There were many JW artists I followed on Instagram, they created beautiful Christian illustrations. But for some reason many deleted their accounts out of the blue, no trace left.
       
      I don't know why and it makes me very sad

      Is jw_pressroom on IG legit? Friends I know are liking a post on and following it. There is nothing officially on our Press Room page nor is it in our News page or a headline about it. I’m treating as junk but does anyone have details?

      It's time for me to take a break from JWTalk for just a bit. We have our Regional Convention starting tomorrow! For those of us confined to watching the convention on a screen (rather than in person), at least they give us a choice of watching the recorded version from the US, or the live streamed version of our own convention (with the local brothers doing the parts). Because of the convention, I likely won't have time to peek in here at all.
       
      So, enjoy the weekend everyone!

      Carlos, I don’t think that is correct. I read a lengthy post on this forum from a brother who stated that he was one of the developers. It would be great if the devs would identify themselves in the forum.

      I was just talking to a brother whose son is in video services in the US. They are reducing staff and even discussing downsizing Ramapo - because they are able to use AI for so much of the artwork and videos.
       
      He was telling me that what used to take weeks is now taking days and with only a few people instead of a large staff. More and more are getting sent back into the field. They are even able reduce the number of people needed for acting out scenes. That is a lot of donated funds saved and more workers for the field. It won't surprise me if we see an update soon describing all the ways the GB has approved for AI usage.
       
      I know they will always have humans to review, edit and approve the final product; but most of our pictures and videos will be at least partially if not fully AI generated.
