I dont understand why are we still chattering about this subject. I have never liked instragram or tiktok, please move on! Its not going to work it's some newby in bethel saying I got a great idea let's use instagram and tiktok to proclaim the good news yes great im all for it. But please don't think it is holy spirit leading this it is just a idea and a thought nothing more nothing less, move on people... come on!

 

I have never seen a publisher openly criticize a pilot program created by the organization before even seeing the result.

 

The pilot program just started barely a week ago. We need to be patient and see the result. Our organization has always tested and tried different avenues to preach the good news and also to protect the image of the organization.

Please remember that this is not just about personal preference. This is about all of us as Witnesses. As part of the worldwide brotherhood, we support what the organization provides, and we also support it in matter of prayer.

 

I have been pretty quiet because I know everyone has the freedom to express how they feel, but sometimes I feel I need to say something, even if the other party may disagree. (Ecclesiastes 3:7) I am not sure if you are aware of how carefully the organization approves the pilot programs it produces.

That's unacceptable, even.

Our brothers read the letter that was not a part of the information that was read to us. 

Same here 😳.

Actually, one purpose of a pilot program is to discover whether something should continue at all. We've had arrangements that became permanent, such as carts, JW Library, and LDC. We've also had arrangements that were modified or eventually replaced, such as the RBC arrangement, radio broadcasting, testimony cards, magazine routes, and even meeting formats.

 

The success of a pilot isn't measured by whether it lasts forever. It's measured by whether it provides useful information. That's why judging a pilot before the results are in seems premature. The organization has a long history of testing arrangements, keeping what works, adjusting what needs adjustment, and discontinuing what doesn't.
 

Let's not work against the prayers of the 'holy ones.'

To express, you don't get it, is understandable.  To not testify as Jehovah's 'witness,' is never a place the organization wants to be. I pray for their efforts.

When we started them in early 2000s (France was a testing field). Ho the memories.
