For the past 30 odd years I have been to a Baptist church, catholic church, non-denomination churches and the mosque. My grandmother was jehovahs withess and I also attended as a child.
I have begun to study with witnesses again and studying the bible is enlightening. However after several months of attending the kingdom hall I have become bored and to make my eight year old sit through an hour of studying the watchtower each sunday seems cruel. The songs don't move me at all. They also agressively demand a lot of my time. The hope of everlasting life is wonderful.
But what do they give back to their faithful patrons. Other churches have day care centers, help for the poor, activities other than bible study for its members, singles organizations, etc.
All i see is that theor main objective is to recruit more members. But how do you hold the interest of your new recruits should be addressed.
