Genesis 11, 12 & 13: The Tower of Babel, Abram's Call, and the Lord's Covenant
from Come & See Podcast · host St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church in London
In this episode, we journey through Genesis chapters 11, 12, and 13, uncovering powerful themes of ambition, faith, and divine promise. We begin with the story of the Tower of Babel, where humanity’s attempt to "make a name" for themselves led to confusion and division — a lesson on pride, unity, and God’s purposeful intervention. Moving forward, we explore God’s calling of Abraham in Chapter 12, a pivotal moment where Abraham, despite uncertainty, responds with faith, leaving his homeland to follow God’s promise. What does it mean to trust and obey without knowing the outcome? Abraham’s journey offers a profound model of devotion and surrender. Chapter 13 deepens this story as Abraham and Lot part ways, highlighting themes of humility, generosity, and divine blessing. Abraham’s faith and patience bring him closer to fulfilling God’s promise, while Lot’s choice hints at the complications of worldly desire. Join us for a reflective and fun conversation on faith, obedience, and the journey of the righteous individuals of Genesis. Subscribe to stay tuned!
