Ecclesiastes: Don't Waste Your Life
When asked “How much money is enough?” John D. Rockefeller (the first American to be worth more than a billion dollars) famously answered “Just a little bit more.” Why is it in a country with so much so many people feel they need a little bit more? Why do so many of us join the Rolling Stones in singing “I can’t get no satisfaction?” Often people think they need “just a little bit more” to be completely satisfied. But there was this guy in the Bible by the name of Solomon – king of Israel. King Solomon had all the riches in the world, but still he sought more: more money, more sex, more power. What he found is that the problem with having everything in the world is nothing call fill the God-shaped vacuum in a human’s heart. Join us as we explore the book of Ecclesiastes as Solomon's personal discovery that, even though he tried and he tried, he couldn't get any satisfaction. You might just be surprised at what ultimate conclusion turns out to be!
