Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Let's go back - way, way back - to the Tower of Babel in Genesis 11. It is so fascinatingly placed! Before it is the Garden of Eden (God comes down to establish a covenant), then Sin, then The Flood. Right after it is God coming down to make a covenant with Abraham that would effect us all. That's a 500 year jump between Noah and Abraham, and all we get in between is Genesis 11. Most of that is genealogies. But there is this 9 verse event laid out. Somewhere between those two great men was an attempt by the people to build a large tower and make a name for themselves. God was not pleased and He scattered them. But what in the world is that story about? What is it designed to teach us? I think the answer to those questions is vital today.Special thanks to Christianity Today magazine, and an article called "Babel's Invitation" by John Walton for the historical information behind this episode. I hope you find it useful in how you commune with God, on whose Terms, and for what Purpose. - What was the problem with the Tower of Babel and it's construction?- If they were trying to get God to come down to them, what's wrong with that?- Why are we so drawn to creating our own terms for communion with the Lord?- If our relationship with God is transactional, how is that doomed to fail?- Why is the end game to be God's Glory, and how can that be a challenge for us?
