BTS04 Ignatian Prayer From Cain to Babel

Session 4: Walking with God in a Scattered World (Genesis 4–11) Following the exile from Eden, humanity enters a downward cycle of self-reliance and division. From Cain's envy and violent civilization to the Pride of the Tower of Babel, human pride repeatedly leads to scattering and loss of identity. Yet throughout this darkness, God continuously reveals His plan of sheer goodness—preserving a faithful lineage through Seth, Noah, and Shem. Discover how the waters of the Flood prefigure the grace of Baptism, how the Ark prefigures the Church as a sanctuary of safety, and how God sets the stage to call Abram into a covenant that will gather a divided world.
