This weekend we will celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus 7:30 AM: Inside Service Christ asMerry He defeated death once Christmas and for all. As Christians, sometimes we lose 9:00 AM: Drive-In Service sight of how essential the resurrection is to our faith. In 1 Corinthians 15:14 -18, 10:30 AM: Inside Service Paul reminds us that, “If Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain No Evening Services and your faith is in vain …. 17And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile, Tuesdays and you are still in your sins. 18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ 6:00 PM: Celebrate Recovery have perished. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most Wednesdays to be pitied.” Paul reminds us that if Christ never rose from the grave then He is 10:00 AM: Prayer Meeting still dead, and therefore our faith is dead.

  • Every Taylor Swift Song Ranked from Worst to Best
    Every Taylor Swift Song Ranked From Worst To Best So, I recently posted my blog post about how I ranked Taylor Swift’s Albums. That, in and of itself, was a hard thing for me to do. Taylor Swift is one of my, if not my, favorite singer of all time. There is just something about her music that I connect to really well, more so than a lot of other artists. In the interest of wanting to make more posts about music in general (Not only T-Swift), but I’ve also decided to rank her songs from worst to best. Now, a quick disclaimer. I am only doing the songs from her albums, including the ones on deluxe editions. I am not rating any acoustic versions or anything like that though. I am also not rating any songs that she appears on. (Such as “I Don’t Want To Live Forever” and Highway Don’t Care”). I am, however, including songs on her albums that other people appear on (“Everything Has Changed” “End Game”). I also forgot to add in “Safe and Sound” feat. The Civil Wars, so I apologize for that. Also, please be aware that these are my own personal opinions as of right now. I’m ranking the songs based on 1. Lyrics and 2. How much I actually enjoyed the song. For me, a song that I can enjoy is better than a song that might be better “lyrically.” Enough of this explanation though. Are we ready to see the list? 98. “Look What You Made Me Do” The music video is kick ass.

He had no formal schooling but became an accomplished horseman and worked for a time on the rodeo circuit. After working as a farmer he ended up in jail as a result of alcoholism and theft.

I am through telling stories of how the Holy Lodge operates. I did not mention of the last construction of a Holy Lodge. They were poorly operated.
