Can You Spare Eleven Minutes for Jesus on a Good Friday? He died, so that we may live.

I didn't find Jesus. He was never lost, but I sure was. Jesus found me and saved me from myself. On this day, which appears to be a dark day of blood bath and death, becomes a Good Friday of the greatest love imaginable, because nothing could ever surpass this goodness. God gave his only Son to die for our sins and transgressions. Jesus borne our griefs and carried our sorrows with him to the cross so that we may have peace in life. And I'm here to tell you, life without His peace, is not peace at all. I'm not talking about "peace on Earth" kind of peace. The peace I'm talking about is that inner peace that makes you whole.

Why Swamp Fox Patriot: Story Behind the Swamp Fox Patriot

The Swamp Fox was the nickname of South Carolinian Militia Revolutionary War General Francis Marion. The movie, "The Patriot" starring Mel Gibson was loosely based off of Marion's life. Marion became a Revolutionary War legend for his unconventional fighting tactics in the swamps of South Carolina and Georgia. His fierce night surprise attacks terrified the British red coats and made him an American Revolutionary iconic hero. A lot of things in South Carolina and America is still named in reference to Marion. Columbia and the Midlands are home to the Swamp Fox Armory, a gun shop, and McEntire Air Force Base is home to the 169th Fighter Wing and 157th Fighter Squadron of the South Carolina National Air Guard nicknamed the Swamp Foxes. There's the Swamp Fox Club at Francis Marion University and the Regal Swamp Fox Theatre in Florence, SC. You can visit the Swamp Fox Restaurant and Bar inside the Francis Marion hotel in Charleston and order up a Dirty Swamp (Martini). So...
