Join us today as we kick off our new series titled Family of God.  Through out this series we will interview others from all walks of life and we will learn the lens in which they see God.  Diversity is the only way to get a clearer depiction of who God truly is.  With that being said, let us head back to Genesis and talk about the tower of Babel.  What does this story mean, what have we been told its meaning is and how can we learn from this story God's steadfast love for diversity?

Scripture notes:
Genesis 11 story of Babel
Genesis 10:20,31

Habakkuk 1:2-5

Lectio Divina 

Jesus,

you have known us from the beginning of time,

you have known us in the depths of our dreams and in the darkness of our shame,

you know us as your beloved.

Help us to own that core identity more and more in this season of repentance and mercy.

Give us the rock-solid assurance of your unwavering faith in us

as we seek the same in you.

Amen.
