Description

In Genesis 4:17 –26, we trace Cain’s city, Lamech’s boast, and the birth of music, tools, and industry—human progress rising while peace falls. Chris contrasts the “city of self” with a people who “begin to call on the name of the Lord,” asking whether we’re building without God or building with Him. We explore empire vs. kingdom, vengeance “seventy-sevenfold” vs. Jesus’ forgiveness, and the slow way of prayer and presence. When the world builds towers, the church learns to build altars.
