Tower of Disappointment
Episode description
We work hard to build up things in our life to provide belonging, security or significance. But those "towers" only lead us to disappointment.
Genesis 11:1-9
John 17:20-23
"the books or the music in which we thought the beauty was located in will betray us if we trust to them; it was not in them, it only came through them, and what came through them was longing. These things - the beauty, the memory of our own past - are good images of what we really desire; but if they are mistaken for the thing itself, they turn into dumb idols, breaking the hearts of their worshippers. For they are not the thing itself; they are only the scent of a flower we have not found, the echo of a tune we have not heard, news from a country we have never yet visited." - C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
