'The church is not the building, and that's the message, the church is what you do and how you love and how you serve,' Pastor Rodney Smith said.
"The church is not the building, and that's the message, the church is what you do and how you love and how you serve," Pastor Rodney Smith said.Fire investigators are still working to figure out what caused Oakland's oldest black church to catch fire Sunday night, although Pastor Rodney Smith says he does not believe it was malicious.
But since Sunday night's fire, church leaders are now scrambling to figure out how to keep that resource going, even without this building."The church is not the building, and that's the message, the church is what you do and how you love and how you serve," Smith said. Despite his church burning down Sunday night, and now red-tagged, he says he has a community depending on him.
"We know them by name, we don't look at anybody and disrespect them because they don't have a place to sleep," he said.
