Genesis 11

GenesisSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg's discussion of Genesis 11 explores the story of the Tower of Babel, where people attempted to build a tower reaching the heavens to maintain control rather than being dispersed across the earth. God dispersed them and confused their language, creating different languages and nations. Gregg also delves into the genealogy of Terah's family and Abram's journey to Canaan after God's command. Ultimately, Genesis 11 emphasizes God's plan for people to seek Him independently rather than being ruled by one leader or government.
