  1. Past hour
  2. Thanks for the clarification as I only quoted from what was posted here. is that correct?
  3. You can't allow any Zoom windows to launch on or go onto the monitor with JW Library to prevent the minimizing. During the times you have to use dual monitor mode in Zoom settings, this is basically inevitable and you have to deal with it on the fly. You might try double clicking the JW Library second screen when it goes into Exclusive Full Screen mode on the second monitor to take it out of Full Screen Mode, then Maximizing it. There's not much to be done about it otherwise. I don't remember how to get rid of the display numbers. :<
  4. Today
  5. I use it, but sparingly. So far, I have not noticed any issues with it.
  6. Something similar happened yesterday. The scheduled speaker suddenly showed up in NWP as Unknown. I noticed that our COBE used NWS Mobile that morning so I wonder if that caused a sync issue. Has anyone used NWS Mobile?
  7. Proclaimers book page 89 (subheading…”Closing Days of J.F. Rutherford) …footnote on bottom of page Footnote * Brother Rutherford was survived by his wife, Mary, and their son, Malcolm. Because Sister Rutherford had poor health and found the winters in New York (where the Watch Tower Society’s headquarters were located) difficult to endure, she and Malcolm had been residing in southern California, where the climate was better for her health. Sister Rutherford died December 17, 1962, at the age of 93. Notice of her death, appearing in the Monrovia, California, Daily News-Post, stated: “Until poor health confined her to her home, she took an active part in the ministerial work of Jehovah’s Witnesses.”
  8. New problem with public talk. Requested speaker with a shared congregation but it did not fill in information on talk schedule? Any ideas?
  9. Do we still own buildings located in Brooklyn? Or did we sell them all...?

  11. Please pay no attention to my post above Even though there are other forums managed by JWs, all those I could find allow also non-JWs to comment Whereas JWtalk is the only one that only allows baptized Christians to participate So please delete my previous post (as well as this one), thank you
  12. Just a suggestion, can the sentence "only online community for real, actual Jehovah's Witnesses" be slightly modified? Probably it was true when it was first launched, but today there are other online communities for actual JWs
  13. Yes we have turned the green box off, which helps a lot. But still see the large number. Before we downloaded jwlmediawin, sometimes things would work fine but many times we seemed to have no control over keeping jwl media screen in the right place. Even admitting someone into zoom during the first song could steal the screen from our Kingdom Hall tvs
  14. This is not correct. The notes are attached to the Chairman Assignment, not to a person. The notes will show for whoever is assignmed as Chairman on the CLM Schedule.
  15. its pilot program in testing phase so I guess a lot of things are still being smoothed out
  16. ⬆️ better this than 144 years after Establishing Gods kingdom 😅😂🤣😉
  17. We don't use JWLMediaWin. Have you turned off the zoom setting "Show green borders ..." (under share screen setting) I minimise the second zoom window after launching. Only restore it when needed, and afterward minimise again, restore JW Library window.
  18. How thankful we are that the blessing and support that comes from Jehovah is pain free (Prov 10:22). We can be joyful in our heart appreciation, even though our spirit is sorely tested. I take a point from 2Chron 6:29,30 "whatever prayer, whatever request for favor may be made by any man or by all your people Israel (for each one knows his own plague and his own pain) when they spread out their hands toward this house, then may you hear from the heavens, your dwelling place, and may you forgive; and reward each one according to all his ways, for you know his heart". Keep the kingdom smile!
  19. If the brother is still wearing a tie in 35°C, then deserves a cup of tea. images.mp4
  20. Hello everyone. I know there’s been much discussion on this topic but I haven’t seen anything recently. We’re currently using Zoom and JW Library on a Windows PC with two monitors in our Kingdom Hall. We recently installed JWLMediaWin to work around occasional media-window minimization issues, but we’d prefer to continue using standard JW Library if possible. We have two questions: Has anyone found a reliable solution to prevent the JW Library media window from minimizing, disappearing, or moving unexpectedly when using Zoom with a dual-monitor setup? When using JWLMediaWin, the monitor identification numbers (“1” or “2”) briefly appear on the second display when starting a Zoom screen share. Since that display is shown on our Kingdom Hall TVs, we’d like to avoid the audience seeing those numbers. Has anyone found a way around this? Our goal is simply to have the cleanest and most reliable setup possible for meetings. We’d appreciate hearing what has worked for others.
  21. Al Schroeder had a son, Judah Ben Schroeder. The difference about Guy Pierce is that he had kids before he got the truth.
  22. Its possible the person controlling the social media and the one controlling jw. Org could be two different people and they have different life things going on. I wouldnt fret too muchbover this.

    • 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.”

      I think someone somewhere said they knew someone that makes notebooks for conventions/assemblies. I would love to support them and get a notebook for the upcoming regional. A friend of mine gave me a spare she was given for the assembly and it helped me enjoy the assembly a bit better because i had no use for my phone so i wasn't just fiddling around (I can write faster than i can type, within the first sentence i have no idea what is being said and i get lost when im typing notes)

      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!
