  Hello. Welcome to the No God Coach
• 0:03
  Huddle for January 6, 2026. A two-minute
• 0:06
  call from God's playbook to know him
• 0:08
  better so we can love and obey him more.
• 0:11
  Let's hear today's play from Genesis 11,
• 0:14
  which says, "The whole earth use the
• 0:16
  same language, the same words." And then
• 0:18
  they said, "Come, let's build ourselves
• 0:20
  a city with a tower that has its top
• 0:23
  reaching up into heaven so that we can
• 0:25
  make a name for ourselves and not be
• 0:27
  scattered all over the earth. Come,
• 0:30
  let's go down and confuse their language
• 0:32
  so that they won't understand each
• 0:34
  other's speech. So from there, Adonai
• 0:36
  scattered them all over the earth. And
• 0:38
  they stopped building the city. You
• 0:41
  know, the Bible isn't just spiritual
• 0:43
  sayings. It's God's record of his work
• 0:46
  with real people so we can know him,
• 0:48
  reconcile with him, and live with him
• 0:51
  forever. The Tower of Babel shows us
• 0:54
  something uncomfortable. Most of what is
• 0:56
  wrong in our world isn't God's fault.
• 0:58
  It's ours. At Babel, people were united,
• 1:01
  but their unity was aimed in the wrong
• 1:03
  direction. They said, "Let's make a name
• 1:05
  for ourselves." Not, "Let's honor God,
• 1:08
  but let's elevate ourselves." When men
• 1:11
  collaborate against God, the result is
• 1:13
  always confusion, frustration, and
• 1:15
  collapse. The pattern hasn't changed. We
• 1:18
  like to blame God for our pain. But it's
• 1:20
  people who steal from people, people who
• 1:23
  abuse people, people who kill people. A
• 1:26
  lot of the trouble in your life and mind
• 1:28
  can be traced back to bad decisions,
• 1:30
  ours or someone else's that landed on
• 1:33
  us. God seems distant, not because he
• 1:36
  moved away, but because we chose to live
• 1:38
  apart from him and build our own powers.
• 1:41
  Here's the good news. God's response is
• 1:43
  not to walk away, but to invite us back
• 1:46
  into a peaceful relationship with
• 1:48
  himself. When you make peace with God
• 1:50
  through Jesus, his presence becomes your
• 1:53
  strength in a broken world. He helps you
• 1:56
  endure the fallout from other people's
• 1:58
  choices and transforms your own heart so
• 2:00
  you make fewer destructive choices
• 2:02
  yourself. And he gives you a solid hope,
• 2:05
  a future when Jesus will return. Uh rule
• 2:09
  on a renewed earth and everything will
• 2:11
  finally be right, rightfully, fully
• 2:14
  good, and fully joyful. Until that day,
• 2:17
  God's call is clear. Love him with all
• 2:19
  your heart, soul, mind, and strength.
• 2:21
  and love your neighbor as yourself, even
• 2:24
  when your neighbor is unjust and unkind.
• 2:26
  That's not weakness. That's how a man
• 2:28
  lives with joy and peace in a world
• 2:31
  shattered by sin. So, brother, run
• 2:33
  today's play. Stop blaming and start
• 2:36
  bowing. Ask God to show you where you've
• 2:38
  been building your own tower, living to
• 2:40
  make a name for yourself and ignoring
• 2:42
  his voice. Confess it honestly. Pursue
• 2:45
  his presence and not your platform. Take
• 2:48
  time in the word and prayer. Sometimes
• 2:50
  ask God to fix your circumstances. Ask
• 2:52
  him to fix your heart. Choose love where
• 2:55
  you want revenge. Think of one person
• 2:58
  who's wronged you. Instead of
• 2:59
  retaliating, pray for them. Respond with
• 3:02
  Christlike words and actions. The men at
• 3:04
  Babel tried to rise without God and
• 3:06
  ended up scattered and struck. Don't
• 3:09
  repeat their mistake. If this huddle
• 3:11
  helps you know God better so you can
• 3:13
  love and obey him more, leave a quick
• 3:15
  review and share it with a brother. It
• 3:17
  helps other men find their way into the
• 3:19
  huddle.
