King Nebuchadnezzar made a golden statue whose height was sixty cubits and whose width was six cubits. If my biblical math is correct, that’s about 90 feet tall, and about 9 feet wide, which is maybe not a hallmark of strong engineering. It doesn’t have a base wide enough to support the weight of it.

What are we building? And are we building it in a way that will last, or idols to draw attention to ourselves for a brief moment? What are the idols we worship? Which of them need to fall?

The sermon was delivered by Rev. Marci A. Glass on July 14, 2024.

The scripture reading was from Daniel 3:1, 7-30.
