    I found the story at the Tower of Babel interesting as well! From a young age I do remember learning about this Bible story, but I thought they were trying to “reach Heaven” and that is why God stopped them. However the chapter actually highlights Gods acknowledgement that nothing they set their minds to would be impossible if they were able to work together. This serves, to me, as a great reminder that we are stronger together and community is incredibly important. A connected church that communicates and focuses on their mission and goals can do great and mighty things for the people of their community.

    Reading that Jesus decided to stay in Samaria for 2 more days because the people asked him to stay longer really left an impression on me. It’s simple but to me, it shows that he really came to this earth to serve and love on people.

      I didn’t consider this when reading, but wow – a great illustration that you pointed out of his mission and desire to serve and love people.

    If anyone reading this has not yet watched “The Chosen ” , please do! The final episode of Season 1 is the story from John 4 with the woman at the well. So powerful!

    I wondered about the Babel story too. The SRT podcast also had more to say about this story when they discussed their Genesis study book. I think it was January 2020.

    I wondered this too. About Babel and why confuse them with their languages? Very interesting

    Hi! I was confused about this too. Reading my commentary helped me a lot. It said that the people say “let us make” which is mirroring what God says in Genesis 1. This statement reveals that the people were thinking they were their own gods and could create perfect, greater things that the Lord Himself. They were dishonoring the ways that the Lord had saved them.
    Hope this helps :)

    I’m late to doing this today. I learned so much! I love how this seemed to be so focused on worship. And how careful you have to be with it. You have to make sure you’re worshipping the right things.
