There is a church a couple of blocks away from the apartment in Celebration. It has what is, on the face of it, a rather unprepossessing spire. Stand in the street and look at it and it blends in well with the the surrounding condominiums and town homes; it fits the general Disney-chic ambiance of the place (think Donald Duck in a tux).

Then you see it from a distance, the building under it no longer visible, and suddenly it's a spire. A true spiritual artifact. a monument to the living God. Donald Duck nowhere in sight.
