Church Burns, Leaving Only Wooden Cross Standing

A Texas church burned to the ground last week, leaving only a four-foot-tall wood cross standing amid the ruins.

Balsora Baptist Church, located in a rural area approximately 75 miles northwest of Dallas, caught fire around 1:00 PM.

According to The Christian Post, Construction workers overseeing the church’s fellowship hall and kitchen discovered the fire when they returned from lunch. Multiple fire departments responded to the blaze, which consumed over half the building before they arrived. No one was injured in the fire, but several firefighters dealt with heat-related injuries because of the weather, a post on the Wise County Fire Marshal’s Facebook page said.- Christian Headlines
