Bro. HarreLl Henton
Minister & Servant of God
”Minister Harrell Henton has been working for the Lord for as long as he can remember. Under the guidance of his grandfather, Robert Holt Sr. he has made the grand decision to dedicate his full life to the work of the Lord and His church.
He is a graduate of Miami Carol City Senior High School and after finishing there, he matriculated to Florida Memorial College, where studied Communications. Beginning his path toward the work of the church, he became a Christian, being baptized into the body of Christ, on January 10, 1993, at the tender age of 9. From there, continuing to spend time with his grandfather and mentor, Robert Holt Sr., he began to learn an abundance of the Word of God, words of wisdom, and just in general becoming a man. Little did he know at the time that he was being groomed to one day take over the Ministry of the Brownsville Church of Christ. In August of 2011, Harrell was handed the torch in the delivery of God's word. He was installed as the full-time Minister of the Brownsville Church of Christ on the 22nd day of August. From there, he decided to make it his mission to continue to build the Brownsville congregation as a loving and family-oriented church until Jan 2026. He is currently the full-time Minister of Sugar Creek Church of Christ where he is a devoted Servant, Leader, & Man of God.
With the support and encouragement of his family and membership, he has begun to build this church, increasing membership, creating more programs, and strengthening the programs already in existence. As a young man leading a great church, many times it can be difficult, but Minister Henton understands that success does not come without hard work, but he knows that with God all things are possible! Brother Henton is married to a wonderful helpmeet, Kellee, and they have two beautiful kids, Kaleah, and Harrison. With a full-time position as a Chaplain, and a full-time Ministry, Bro. Henton has his plate full. But he is up for the challenge and having a close relationship with the Lord and living by the Word of God, he knows that he will be blessed, no matter what the situation is. Bro. Henton's encouragement to many, and one of his favorite scriptures, "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding, In all thy ways acknowledge him, and He shall direct thy path (Proverbs 3:5-6). To the youth, remember the race is not given to the swift or
the strong, but to those that endure until the end.“

Consistency in Your Walk With God - Min. Harrell L. Henton
Matthew 6:33
Consistency is one of the clearest signs of genuine devotion to God. Our Christian walk is not built on occasional moments of excitement, but on a daily decision to follow Christ—even when we don’t feel like it, when life is difficult, or when no one is watching.
It is easy to be devoted when we are at church, surrounded by other believers, singing songs, and hearing God’s Word. The real challenge is carrying that same devotion into Monday morning, difficult conversations, temptations, disappointments, and ordinary routines.
God is looking for faithfulness, not perfection.
Daniel gives us a powerful example. When a law was passed forbidding prayer to anyone except the king, Daniel didn’t suddenly develop a prayer life. Scripture says:
“Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house… and he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.” — Daniel 6:10
Notice those last words: “as he did aforetime.”
Daniel’s devotion didn’t change because his circumstances changed. His routine with God was already established. His consistency gave him strength when his faith was tested.
The same is true for us. We shouldn’t wait until we’re in trouble to pray. We shouldn’t wait until we’re discouraged to open God’s Word. We shouldn’t wait until Sunday to think about God.
Build your relationship with God when things are going well, so that you will know where to turn when things become difficult.
Consistency may look simple:
- Pray every day, even when the prayer is short.
- Read and meditate on God’s Word regularly.
- Assemble with the saints faithfully.
- Make time for worship and spiritual growth.
- Guard your heart from influences that pull you away from Christ.
- Repent quickly when you fall.
- Keep doing what is right, even when you don’t see immediate results.
Paul encouraged the Corinthians:
“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord…” — 1 Corinthians 15:58
Our goal isn’t to have one great spiritual moment. Our goal is to remain faithful.
There will be days when you feel spiritually strong and days when you feel tired. There will be prayers that seem immediately answered and prayers that require patience. There will be victories and there will be failures. But through all of it, keep walking.
