It has been my privilege to speak at several MwMs, although I do not see myself as the speaker in the normal sense - more the facilitator of discussion on the various subjects. What I value most about MwM is the freedom of discussion, the expression of thought, including doubts and fears that brethren in Christ have and to some extent, the resolution of those concerns from the scriptures. Whilst not everyone necessarily goes away from the weekend feeling better spiritually, it is my perception that most do. I love the atmosphere of friendship and brotherhood engendered and the sharing of wisdom. At a more personal level I enjoy MwM because it gives me some quiet time for thinking, prayer and writing my journal in an inspiring context. I feel strengthened by the faith of my brothers and by the power of God I see working in them. I also go away more committed and resolved to demonstrate with renewed energy the principles of love in my life at home at work and in the ecclesia.
