The story of the tower of Babel is about a lot more than language. It's about two ways of viewing the world, and two ways of finding security and significance. One comes from a city we try and build to keep our life safe and important apart from God. The other comes from God by grace. Christianity offers a city to come, that is built by God for us through Jesus Christ.

3. Why is God's grace the only sustainable way for humans to be united?
4. How can you pursue the eternal city God builds through the way you live your life now?
