Eugene Bach reports from Germany, reflecting on Pope Leo’s recent comparison of AI to the Tower of Babel. Eugene digs into Genesis 11 and offers a mission field perspective the pope didn’t mention: that Babel’s true failure was resisting God’s first command to go forth, multiply, and scatter across the earth. He traces this east versus west movement throughout scripture, ties it to the Great Commission, and shares how he actually uses AI in missions work today. A thoughtful, unexpected take on a hot topic through the lens of reaching the nations.
