Expert Profile: Brenda Martin

Expertise:  I have been one of Jehovah`s Witneses now for over 30 years, in those years I have brought up 4 children, teaching each of them the bible.Being one of Jehovah`s Witnesses has helped me cope with my Epilepsy and bring up a daughter with learning difficulties.I have conducted bible studies with people from nearly every denomination i.e. Muslim. Having used the bible all these years to answer peoples questions, I feel I am qualified to give any answer regarding Jehovah`s Witnesses and the bible.
My experience has been one of attending bible lectures 5 times a week,taking part in these lectures in front of an audience and being with thousands of J.W. at conventions where I have seen the bible at work in peoples lives.It is truly a miracle when you see thousands of people meeting together and not one policeman needed, and not even a piece of litter in sight.It is like another world.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  Well when people get one of J.W. at their door they perhaps see them as some holy joe's with nothing better to do,which is not true, we are just normal everyday housewives etc. who are realy nervous about coming to a stranger's door, we come nonetheless because we truly love our nieghbour and want them to hear the marvellous things we know to be true.
What do you like about this subject?  I absolutely love studying the bible and speaking to others about it.I love mixing with people who are trying to live a Christian life and this is possible especially at our meetings and assemblies.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  when it comes to the bible we are always learning and the most important part about learning is drawing ever closer to the Creator,so my aim is just to keep on growing in the faith.
Something controversial or provocative about this subject  Jehovah's Witness have been accused of not loving their children because of our stand on blood.People couldnt be further from the truth and I hope as a mother I never have to face that decision.We love God and obeying him is paramount in our lives but that does not mean it is an easy decision to make "refusing blood"
