This Sunday: The Trinity Players present The Tower of Babel during 10:30 Worship

The Trinity Players present The Tower of Babel as a short comic “lesson drama” based on Genesis 11:1–9.  The legendary King Nimrod of Babylon, with the help of his Chief Engineer, is building a tower to challenge God and proudly showing it to his old Nanny. God rebukes the King, and the tower comes crashing down. God confounds everyone, so that each speaks a different language. The story is not only a biblical lesson about overreaching pride, but also an example of religious comedy. It presents a revelation of truth by comic reduction—in this case, by making, as it were, molehills out of mountains.
