Looks like ( insert your own villain ) doesn’t like people to be religious, they want to destroy churches for some reason.

Jesus christ is alive and well!Christianity wasnt born in a church!praise god!

Got to have a monitored smoke and fire detection system in seldom used buildings. Without anyone around, fires can burn for a long time before they are visible from outside...

Sooo many "church" fires... Wonder what God might be saying in all of this

[williamelewis]

That’s not in Dallas…that’s like saying Sugarland is in Houston

[fordsrestorations]

Yeah it does look a little weird but it has been really hot this year

Maybe Robert Morris and Gateway church will donate money to rebuild.

[BufordDuckworth]

Weird that nobody asked the all-powerful creator of the universe to put out a small fire.
