Considering it’s Pawnee Rock and the services are on Sunday, I’d go with the pentecostal idea. Odd looking sort of place, the roof is barn-shaped.

Or Satan worshippers, certainly makes one wonder.

I wonder too. You could go so many directions with a name like that. Perhaps it’s a pentecostal church and “flames” refers to “cloven tongues like as of fire” (Acts 2:3). Maybe it’s like heaping coals of fire on an enemies head as spoken of in Romans 12:20. That was a good thing in that culture. You might give someone hot coals to start their own fire and they would be carried home in a basket on their head, warming them as they walked. Giving your enemy food or drink was similar–perhaps a church focused on good deeds. Then again it could just be a fire and brimstone preachin’ kind of place. I think I like the other two options better.

Whoa, ya gotta wonder…….. I’d like to be a fly on the wall for one of their services. Well, unless it gets to hot. I don’t do heat well.
