On the eve of Pentecost Sunday, Solid Rock Church in Center Point was engulfed by a massive fire, but the congregation's spirit remained unbroken as they held a powerful outdoor service. Pastor Larry Ragland said, "Last night, we had a fire. A massive fire in our church. But the devil is a liar—and we weren't going to let him stop us."Despite the flames leaving parts of the building unsafe, the spirit of the congregation remained unshaken.
