摩西一書創世記 2:23

As New York pastor Rich Villodas defines it, a deeply formed life is a life marked by integration, intersection, intertwining, and interweaving, holding together multiple layers of spiritual formation. This kind of life calls us to be people who cultivate lives with God in prayer, move toward reconciliation, work for justice, have healthy inner lives, and see our bodies and sexuality as gifts to steward.

Er det noen mening med livet? Forkynneren konkluderer med at verken visdom, rikdom, filosofisk gransking, nytelser eller hardt arbeid kan lede ut av tomheten. Men han trekker ikke ateismens slutning og ikke pessimismens. Han ser Guds virksomme hånd – Gud gjør alt. Gud er ikke et emne Forkynneren gransker og stiller kritiske spørsmål til. Gud er den trygge grunnen han fester sin tro og tillit til, hans kilde til livet.
