Ecclesiastes: Meaning Under the Sun

Ecclesiastes is the Bible's most honest book about life's frustrations: work that never ends, pleasure that does not satisfy, money that slips away and death that comes to all. The Preacher does not hide from these questions, and he ends by pointing us to the God who gives life as a gift and calls us to fear him and keep his commandments. If life feels empty in a way that will not lift, please talk with someone you trust, such as a friend, pastor or doctor.
