She doesn't seem to be the program director. Many Witnesses work places where everything produced is not exactly Christian- they may even have high rank. Everyone's conscience is different regarding their employment and how much they're involved or have "say so" about what goes on. If she is a sister and produces segments for air, I think she did a great job with this one.. 🤷🏽‍♀️

She was very respectful in her interview.  She may or may not be a sister... I see no reason why a sister *couldn't* be an executive producer of a media outlet... 

I agree. From noticing the way she interacted with Bro Hendricks, she comes off to me as a very respectful, concerned and professional woman of color. 

 

The only thing in which a knowledgeable witness would know is that a fleur-de-lis is a French version of christendom's cross. Which seems to be hanging in her kitchen wall in the background.

I did a quick search on the internet as well  in our publications and find nothing on fleur-de-lis representing the cross. Do you have a document for this?

Fleur-de-lis is also part of the symbol for the NOLA Saints football team, too. It may be part of the set up for her home office

I did a more in-depth search on the Internet, but I find nothing linking the Fleur-de-lis with the symbol of the cross. Although there are a couple of pictures that definitely make the link...

…most of the references I see link it with French royalty, not with religion.

 

I am not French (perhaps @Dages or @jplcould intervene here), but I do live in a predominantly French city, and I served for many years in a French congregation. But I never heard of anything that ties a Fleur-de-lis with the cross.

I am relying on information that I believe was told me my by high school French teacher 3+ decades ago when I was learning the truth. (hearsay) 

 

If I am incorrect, I apologize.

As usual, please avoid the comments section on the video. 

This is no surprise :D 


But an interesting interview. I wish there were more of these than just complaining about apostates about how they are treated. 

 

No matter how the wind howls the mountain cannot bow to it.

I was just curious, hadn't heard that before. I see that the heart shape was included in Hislop's book. Many of us oldtimes are still confused by the fact we can use the heart symbol without burning in hell, oops! I guess that was Hislop's idea too.

Anytthing that cites the Two  Babylons book is a bit behind the times, which is my current speed. :lol:

The Hebrew word cushi or kushi is an affectionate term generally used in the Bible to refer to a dark-skinned person of African descent.

Here’s an article concerning Jehovah’s witnesses on the same website.
