Season: Part 4

May 5, 2024 • Chris Heller • Ecclesiastes 2:12–26

Join us this Sunday as we continue in chapter 2 of Ecclesiastes. Last week, we saw how Solomon chose to pursue every earthly pleasure and discovered the emptiness of selfish indulgence vs. living a life of giving generosity to others.

This week, he debates the futility of working to merely accumulate wealth and possessions, knowing he must eventually leave it all to someone who may squander it. From his experience, we learn that true contentment comes from recognizing that work is a gift from God that can bring joy and meaning when done to His glory.

Under the Sun

April 14, 2024 • Chris Heller • Ecclesiastes 1:1–14

Join us this Sunday for the opening of our spring/summer series, "Seasons", a study in the book of Ecclesiastes. This series will help us recognize how we might be wasting our energy in futile pursuits and point us to the things that bring us purpose and meaning. It should be a study with a lot of practical application, and even some fun as well.

Chasing the Wind

April 21, 2024 • Chris Heller • Ecclesiastes 1:12–18

We all find ourselves in different seasons of life, and we often don't understand how we got there or what we should do while going through a difficult one. This series is helping us learn how we can best trust God and walk in the fear of the Lord as we navigate the challenges of whatever season we find ourselves in.

This week, Solomon will test his heart by indulging in every form of pleasure available to see whether there is any satisfaction to be found in them. What he discovers will provide insight into the folly of selfish indulgence vs. living a life of generosity toward others. Through his experience, we can gain wisdom in how to ensure our earthly pursuits are aligned to God's will.
