The Joy in Pleasure

July 26, 2020 • Pastor Paul Smith

Give

In Ecclesiastes 2:1-17 we contrast the worship of pleasure and the joy in pleasure. **Warning** we talk about intimacy in some explicit terms near the end of the message.

Enjoy God

November 1, 2020 • Pastor Paul Smith

In the conclusion to the book of Ecclesiastes we learn how to enjoy God by building a foundation while young, creating a habit of faithfulness, connecting today to the eternal, and embracing age old truths.

Enjoy Risk-Taking

October 25, 2020 • Pastor Paul Smith

Today we take a risk and talk about the Biblical basis for taking risks in Ecclesiastes chapter 11. Risk-taking is having a high view of the future, while risk-aversion is having a low view of the future. When we Embrace seasonal risks we show we are living with a long-view.

Enjoy Your Position

October 18, 2020 • Pastor Paul Smith

God wants us to enjoy all of life, even our working life. From Ecclesiastes chapter 10 we consider 5 things that will help us thrive no matter what position we are in: have a sense of duty, value skills, comprehend efficiency, live in present facts, and maintain order.
