"So what happened to my church was what happened to many churches."
Building A Church is the name of a program Joe Frank produced as part of the series Work In Progress. It was originally broadcast in 1988.
Synopsis
A minister is imprisoned, escapes using every imaginable transportation. Sounds of construction. The history of church building, windows, clock bells and time-keeping on ships by counting slowly, the history of tools, screws v/s nails, Notre Dam was built based on Hugo's description in NDDP. The cathedral of Chartres was originally a tiny church. A cathedral was built by slaves collapsed 600 years later and plunges the land into chaos. A woman talks about her mother pretending to sell her to gypsies. "This spirit cannot fail you" preacher. Mutilating oneself in church. Becoming the leader of a sect, an orgy in a tent, instructions for making offerings. The nature of love. A man takes advantage of everyone, kills people, experiences a conversion. Sounds of church building. The recycling of churches as secular buildings and consumer goods. Larry Block, in character, complains about the show, suggests Joe take a vacation.
Interesting Facts
This program seems to be identical to Bad, except that this program is missing the brief passage taken from Jewish Blues in which a son tells his Jewish father he's converting to Christianity.
