Papal Bulla - Latest Metal Detecting Find
by cofty ini was out detecting this evening for an hour after work and found this amazing bit of history.. it is a lead seal that originated on a document from pope martin v at some time between 1417 and 1431. these official documents were called papal bulls and were dispatched to all the parishes in the medieval empire.
this example has later been made into a spindle whorl which is why it has a hole through the centre.
lead whorls were used before spinning wheels were invented to make yarn of sheep's wool.. the inscription "spaspe" stands for "sanctus paulus sanctus petrus" and the two busts are of paul and peter.. the reverse has "martinus pp.

couples therapy
by zeb ini have often wished i knew better words to give here when i see couples 'bleeding'.
1. avoid letting the children take over your lives.
although you need to love and care for your children in the very best ways that you can, it’s also important that they don’t dominate your entire relationship.. children are an important part of your relationship.

Very good and recent recording of a judicial committee
by StoneWall incame across this today and wished to share it with any that might want to hear.this happened within and over the last few months as you can tell from their references to covid-19 and the precautions they are having to take and you will hear a few dates mentioned as you listen.the first part is good but it gets even better in the second part (final).i'm really impressed with the knowledge this "apostate" has and how well he conducted himself.so much i could say but will let you see for yourself.love to see when others aren't intimidated or humiliated by the so called "loving" brothers on the committee.part 1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bz0tm1mrbfcpart 2https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i92w4mv5gf0.

Good standing
by Jrjw inhi does anyone know why you're classed as not in good standing if youve separated when you aren't breaking a commandment by being separated.
1 cor 7:11 - but if she does separate, let her remain unmarried or else be reconciled with her husband; and a husband should not leave his wife..

RIP Terry Wogan
by LoveUniHateExams ini've just been reading the sad news that terry wogan has passed away after a short illness (cancer).
he was 77.. i admit that i wasn't necessarily a fan of his but he came across as such a nice, decent, softly-spoken and gentle individual.
he was also a successful broadcaster and presenter.. i hope his family realize how much he was loved and get the support that they need at this difficult time.
