Sermon text: Genesis 11:1-9
I have often imagined a world where everything and everyone were exactly alike. I have thought to myself I wish that everyone thought exactly like I do and that they had the same interests and the same desires. At the very least, I have thought, things would be perfect in my marriage. If only Dana wanted to watch all sports on television, if only the girls loved putting their seat belts on, if only I did not have to guess what other people were thinking, but they thought just like I do.
I have imagined this world where if everyone just had the exact same language, looked exactly alike and so on everything would be better . . .
This is pretty much the situation that the world had arrived at by Chapter 11 in Genesis.
