"From Tower to Cross" | Genesis 11:1-9 | Matt Carlson

We all build “towers” hoping they’ll give us security, identity, and a sense that our life matters. The Tower of Babel shows how humanity has always tried to construct those things apart from God. But the gospel tells a different story. Instead of climbing our way up, God came down to us in Jesus.Discussion Questions:1. Where do you most often look for security or significance in your life right now?2. What are some of the “towers” people commonly build today to feel safe or to prove they matter?3. Can you think of a time when God interrupted your plans? Looking back, how might that have been mercy?4. Why do you think it’s so easy for us to drift toward self-salvation instead of trusting what God has already done?5. How does the gospel change where we look for our safety and significance?Supporting Scriptures: Genesis 9:1, Genesis 9:7, John 1:14, Acts 2:1–12, Philippians 2:5–11+ + + + +Hey, while you're here, please help Generation by clicking the 'Subscribe' button, then click on the BELL 🔔 (on mobile devices, also click 'ALL').
