I finished the first four and started on the last one "Stay".  I have enjoyed his writing.

Finished first book. Nice read. Brother Jonathan has a good imagination. I like how we just get bits and pieces of the narrator Mitch Hanson’s story until the end. Two things I wondered about. Somehow I thought with all the work the brothers are doing on JW.org and broadcast that Jehovah would not destroy that means of communication at least until something better ha. My opinion. And we don’t know what our diet will be but Mac and cheese? 🤔

[Naruwa]

It dawned on me the Mac and cheese was to make his son feel welcomed, like the skateboard. Will have to read it again for more of these subtleties. But first finish the second book The Unrighteous.  They are addictive!

Really enjoying this book right now! A creative use of Imagination indeed! Thanks

I contacted Erik (the author) by e-mail, to ask for his permission to translate his works in French.

He accepted very kindly and may publish my version on his website.

 

I do it first for my family, my parents who are not really fluent in English. But, yeah, this will be a nice experience. I'm quite humbled by the task.

You must tell us when you have translated in french....i need / must have the link in french !!!!! In quebec all JW need to read all his book.

Thx

[Dages]

Ho, I stopped a long time ago, I'm too busy unfortunately. But you can use software to translate the text in french, you have some advanced tools for that like DeepL

[Dages]

EK Jonathan has started a podcast channel on Youtube. Very nice.

Wow. Just, wow.

 

It has been a while since I've taken the time to read a book all the way through, and this was an absolutely wonderful read! 😁

 

Not like I haven't heard of brothers/sisters writing down their thoughts on the New World before, but it's certainly the first time I've seen something of this size. I read through it rather quickly (this afternoon) but there were plenty of parts which tugged at me because - while the accounts given may be fictional - I was left thinking that no matter how Jehovah handles things, he'll do it in style, and we will have tons of awesome experiences to learn from after the GT!

 

Well done Brother Jonathan!

Thank you so very much.  I just ordered the paperback.  My father-in-law has been waiting patiently.  He is going to enjoy it 😁

[cme]

I just started reading it and I am elated!!!  Besides personal Bible studies and preparing for the meeting I can read this book and for the moment see myself in Paradise!  Thank you.

Can't get it 😅 Need to ship to my country

I've read  "All Things New"  before, but ... 

 

I'm rereading this one and in light of our recent update, I'm enjoying it even more. I especially appreciate the stories of one's who were "saved" that were not JWs, but clearly had good hearts ... like the astronaut and the Pakistani terrorist with a bomb (who is now used to detonate old buildings to clear away the dangerous sites for removal with his nephew).

 

Wel done!

Yup. He pulled the book when it looked like the 'door closed' at the start of GT.

 

The new Annual Meeting has made his books more scripturally accurate than mine. 😅

[trottigy]

I haven't read your last 3 (or maybe just the last 2) and didn't realize they were out. I had read Flee, Stay and Stand recently. 

 

I'll look forward to them. I think I read the Undecided.. if that is the one where they continue to age. I really liked that idea and am looking forward to reading it again 

 

Thanks for putting these ideas down and helping us with our imaginations!
