In 1999, Reverend Billy Joe Raymond was universally recognized as the fieriest preacher in Lennox Valley, with good reason. Not a Sunday, or Wednesday night for that matter, passed at First Baptist Church without an altar call and at least two re-dedications by souls who had wondered astray, ultimately finding their way home during a latter verse of "I Surrender All." Back in the 60s, Bob Dylan unknowingly prophesied the future of Lennox Valley when he sang, "The Times They Are a’Changin."
