JW Broadcasting - March 2026

[Sheep]

Unless I am totally off-base, the March edition of JW Broadcasting will be online sometime tomorrow. We're all done with the Annual Meeting segments, and there are no Gilead classes that have graduated recently. So that means we'll be back to our normal monthly broadcast... presumably.

 

So what else can we presume?

Who will be the host?

What will be the overriding theme?

What will the music video be about?

 

Does anyone have any predictions?

[jwhess]

Since Ken Godburn (a helper) was the official host and we had 2 consecutive programs (January and February) filled with GB speakers...I am a little confused as to which person will host and conduct the program in March.  We lost our pattern of a helper one month followed by a GB member the next.  I would love to hear from Br. David Splane tomorrow but I have no idea.

 

Maybe the content will be directed by the activities of the next month.  We have the Special Talk and the Memorial soon.

 

I could not even guess about the music video or postcard location...♥️

Possibly, all about patience.

The music video in this month's broadcast shows a brother's reliance on Jehovah as he is held in captivity. It's a powerful reminder that Jehovah never leaves us completely alone during dark times. It's called I'll Wait on Jehovah, and I have converted it to mp3 format while we wait for the official audio version. It's in an archive of the same title in my Music Collection on OneDrive, along with the lyrics, and the official image that will be used on jw.org.

 

If you need the link to my Music Collection, send me a PM.

I liked the "It's a "special week"..." in the COV part from 22min. In France, we generally call the COV the "Semaine spéciale" (Special week)

I liked that part on the history of Circuit Overseers. I wonder if it's a coincidence that we have the Organizational Accomplishments video about Circuit Overseers. (?)

I know the broadcast is recorded ahead of time.  How far ahead I can't guess.  But, the broadcast includes talks that go back.

 

So, I wonder if they made a last minute decision to drop Br. Lett's talk into this broadcast, in view of world events.  In his talk about persecution, Br Lett looks closely at his paper several times, as if to focus.  And at the annual meeting he wore glasses.  In my mind, the talk in the broadcast happened before the annual meeting, before a prescription for glasses.

 

I had the feeling they were preparing us. After the prison segment, Br Ekrann said at 53:35 "Did you learn something from this episode that will fortify you in the days or weeks to come" ?   I'm probably reading more into it than was intended.

I loved Ekrann's part. ❤️❤️❤️ 

 

Thoughts can be likened to rooms in a house. When I'm in a room in the house, I don't have to stay there. I can go to another room. Jehovah's room is just down the hall. And he can come to whatever room I am in, and help me go to another room. (For instance from sorrow-room to resurrection-room)

 

We get a better grip on our emotions when we get a grip on what we think. And change what we think. (I am interested in the subject of neuroplasticity)

 

I would add something: Our emotional energy can increase with some activity, and is easier drained on other activity. Recognize when, and learn. 

 

I will not LET my heart be troubled. Ties in perfectly with Lett's reminder of how to obtain and maintain/keep(? sorry if my English doesn't hit the mark here) holy spirit: By prayer, by activity (ie. read the Bible, meetings etc) and not grieving God's holy spirit.

 

Our imperfection stops us from having full control over our minds. How I LONG for that to change

Highlights 

 

I like to think of our minds like a very large house with many rooms.
Each room is like an event in our lives, and when we spend time in that room, we can feel all the emotions associated with that event.
But Jesus’ words assured them that they had control of their emotions.
They could either spend all of their emotional energy on grief and sadness or they could focus some of their emotions on their faith in Jehovah and Jesus.

 

Audio here

 

 

Jesus knew our imperfect tendency to think that we must fix everything ourselves.
He said in the Sermon on the Mount: “Stop being anxious.” Why?
Because “your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.” Do you have faith that Jehovah sees you, that he knows what you need?
That faith will help your heart not to be troubled.

 

 

We create more anxiety for ourselves when we try to solve problems that we should leave for Jehovah to handle.
For example, can you solve poverty?
Can you solve old age?
wars? crime? civil unrest?
When we think about it that way, we realize that, of course, we can’t solve those problems.
We know Jehovah and Jesus will solve them through God’s Kingdom.
Yes, faith in Jehovah and Jesus is the best way to balance our emotions, especially when facing bad news or trials.

 

 

Now it’s in your hands.” Psalm 112:7 sums up well how the righteous can deal with bad news.
It says: “He will not fear bad news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in Jehovah.” So, what helps us deal with bad news?
Trust that Jehovah will use his holy spirit to help us.
When we feel emotionally overwhelmed or exhausted, remember that Jehovah promises he can give us “power beyond what is normal.” Have faith that he’ll keep that promise for you.

 

 

 

He shines his light on us, so to speak, and gives us “power beyond what is normal.” Yes, when we face events that can trouble our hearts, remember that it’s not the only room in the house.
When you pray to Jehovah and read the Bible, imagine Jehovah taking you by the hand and spending time with him in the other rooms of the house.
You’re in the grief room; he takes you to the resurrection room.
You’re sick?
To the perfect-health room.
The ashamed-of-what-you-have-done room?
To the forgiveness room.
