In the Beginning God Created, a short study on Genesis 1:1-2
E PLuribus Unum, a sermon by John W. Vest of Fourth Presbyterian Church, Chicago. Offering new insight to the stories of Genesis 11 (The Tower of Babel) and Acts 2 (Pentecost), Vest explores the creation of languages, asking "how is it that language difference becomes language barrier?" In so doing, he challenges the divisions and barriers humanity has created and persists in today.
