Yesterday we learned that we’re all one race, descended from Adam and Eve. So . . . where did all the people groups come from?

Well, the Bible gives us the history to understand our differences!

You see, after the global flood, Noah and his family were told to multiply and fill the earth. But Noah’s descendants eventually rebelled to stay together and build a city and a tower. So God confused their language, forcing them to spread out over the earth.

This event divided the human race into different language families. Each one took unique combinations of genetic information with them as they spread out. Soon different people groups and different cultures arose!
