JW Broadcasting

Reading the reviews it would be hard to get a true read on what these broadcast are all about. Either people hate them or they love them. I rated this series so as not to affect the star average. You just have to watch a few to a get a true feeling for what these broadcasts are. So after watching a few I then asked what my gut was telling me and what most people would also see. You get the strangest feeling watching these. I will include in my review of this sites broadcast, what some have mentioned in their reviews and give my take. I will also try to stick to the facts.

1) The host of these shows spend a LOT of time talking about moral values. So much so that it might be a little annoying for some. The message seems to be what kind of person does God think you are. You do not see this on most other religious broadcasts.

2) They use the name Jehovah a lot in the broadcasts. Jesus is mentioned but takes a second place. They emphasize that Jesus is Gods son. That said the name Jehovah is not mentioned very much in many bibles and not at all in a few. The KJ mentions it a few times.

3) It might be nice if the broadcasts mentioned the specifics of how the organization is financed but it can be found on their site by using the search I used. "How Jehovah witnesses support their work" otherwise you may have to pick through several hours of video to find the information. I think this is important information for any show to explain. Besides the explanation of how the organization is financed I could not find a place where they asked for money. I did see them say in a few videos that their work is supported by donations.

4) Someone in another review said a "cult broadcast" but I was unable to verify this claim. Labels like this do not make arguments and many times labels are used instead of real arguments. There seems to be many hosts for this series of shows and not just one Charismatic leader. In fact, it is hard to find just one charismatic host on the entire series. If this show is trying to bring people in by a "cult of personality" they need to try harder. There are a few hosts I am sure, some might find a little dull. One Host -Stephen Lett is funny to watch and might be the most entertaining. He tells every story like he is telling a child a story before bed. He speaks so deliberately and enunciates so concisely it can be very distracting. I would certainly have a limited tolerance for it.

5) Some watching this series will feel that these broadcasts promote the JW organization and (Jehovah) too much. Here is how I look at this. If what they are saying about themselves is true then their depiction of their organization would be fair. But looking at what is being said I am sure many would feel it is way too good to be possible.

6) Here is a short list of Hard stands the casts clearly take. Political neutrality, They do not believe in supporting the military in any nation, They do not believe in premarital sex, Marriage is for one man and one woman and for life, No profane language and this is a short list to say the least.

On a short side note. They talk a lot about their people preaching on these videos. They seem real proud of that, but if you ever had one of JW come to your door I bet you have asked yourself this question. How do you get this many people - Men, women, old and young alike to do this nonstop proselytizing? My Nana went to church(died at 96) and was sure she was going to heaven and she would never considered doing this. Don't they ever get tired of having the door slammed in their face? Now please don't the JW's come over here and try to answer that question. I do not really expect to hear an unbiased answer here.

Some might find my comments too neutral to be useful but I have no reason to dislike these people and whether or not these Broadcast depictions of themselves are real or fiction, the shows themselves are at least clean family entertainment. No language, No outside product advertisements, No color preference, No violence, No Sex, yes as I am sure many are thinking (Sounds boring). :)

I love to read,research, observe and ask questions about the things that happen day to day in our life. This is an intriguing channel and the most enjoyable thing is watching the interviews from folks of all backgrounds. Good news is good for the heart and seeing people from different backgrounds wearing smiles in a world where we are sensitized about negative things makes me very appreciative of having this channel. I remember doing some research about the Babylonians with a 12 year old and seeing her exclaim after seeing the ruins since she never thought they really existed! Thank you for a great teaching tool. Very credible indeed.

Good quality content based on the Bible and experiences. Includes original songs as well.

This broadcast is marvelous! On a monthly basis, you get pre-digested "spiritual food" prepared by mature gentlemen that have dedicated their entire lives to recruiting members of the public to join the only religion on the planet earth that has the favor of the Creator himself! Not only that, the hosts of this program strongly suggest that the Creator had a role in preparing the message each month via his Holy Spirit or active force. One view is all you need to see the obvious truth that no one else has the undeniable biblical truth but the men represented in this broadcast, as well as any that follow their direction. Since time is running out for any that are not currently members of this organization, please, PLEASE hurry up and watch - then join them before all non-believers get destroyed by the Creator in a global genocide. The only reason that some "haters" have given a poor rating to these broadcasts is that they are too simple minded to understand the "deep spiritual" gems being provided during each broadcast. Don't worry about trying to research any of the positions put forth on the broadcasts, you will be directed to JW.Org to see that everything they say (or have ever said) is absolutely true! Go JW Broadcasting and leave the reasoning to them. Instant salvation - just become a viewer.

This is a wonderful, family oriented and bible based program. I love the website as well.
