The Rise and Fall of Mighty Men
Jun 8, 2025 • Jason Sparks
From the Nephilim to the tower of Babel, ancient men sought to make a name for themselves through power and self-exaltation. But their strength led to downfall, not glory. In this sermon, we trace the thread from the “mighty men of renown” in Genesis 6 to the builders of Babel, and contrast their pride with God’s quiet call to Abram: “I will make your name great.” True greatness doesn’t come from self-promotion, but from surrendering to God. And today, God still offers us something far better than fame—He gives us the Name above all names: Jesus.
