Episode 160: Is This the Most Overlooked Chapter in Genesis?

(Genesis 11:10-31 Study)

In this episode of The Today Counts Show, we continue a collection of conversations on the book of Genesis. Jim talks with Gary Harpst and Winston Harris as they dive into an overlooked portion of scripture in Genesis 11.

At first glance, Genesis 11:10–31 looks like just another list of names — a genealogy most people skim or skip altogether. But what if this so-called "boring" chapter holds the key to understanding the entire arc of the Bible?

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the family line from Shem to Abram and uncover how God was quietly setting the stage for a redemption story that would change the world. Join us as we explore hidden patterns, divine timing, and the powerful legacy behind the names you’ve probably never paid attention to — until now.
