Thanks for the good idea for a name Chris, I like it.

I would like to make one clarification to my post: there were only a few people in my chapter who didn't share testimonies in the UBF style. Most of the time sharers went so far as to even used the section headings from the Sunday message transcript (or from whatever other passage they were writing on). But they all tended to follow the pattern of title, key verse, body of testimony in titled sections (usually not their own and containing the content which PECAS descriped), and one word for conclusion. I always thought they did this out of some form of respect as I was never put under pressure to conform my testimonies. Maybe I just hadn't been there long enough yet, or maybe it really was more of a subconscious group-think response (like the way UBFers talk), I really cannot say, but I would not rule out the direct pressure that Chris and PECAS have talked about.

Grace and Peace be to you all.
