Among the timeless teachings in Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, he stated that a city set on a hill cannot be hidden. A culture’s guiding principles are readily open to view, with some facets more easily interpreted than others. In a modern time twist on these words, images come to mind of the mini cities that have sprung up on the growing refuse heaps in places like Calcutta and Mexico City.
