A Testimony of Faith
“Nothing happens in the life of a child of God by accident,” Pastor Chris emphasized. He shared his thoughts from that pivotal moment in 2001, stating:
“I thought to myself that if it collapsed, I was going to build a bigger, better one. At the end of the day, it didn’t collapse, and we called the engineers to see if there was any need to bring it down and rebuild, but it was still okay. Now that this has happened, we will build a bigger, better, and more glorious one, and the devil will lick his wound.”
