Ecclesiastes

Do you ever ask yourself, why am I here? Sit down with pastor and author John Onwuchekwa while he draws from the book of Ecclesiastes and from experiences in his own life to share how you can find lasting joy and true purpose in a God who never changes. There's nothing God won't use. 

Finding Purpose in All of Life's Sorrows and Joys

People often search for the meaning of life from wealth, relationships, careers, charity, religion, etc. However, the reality is that there will always be a void in the human soul unless we are reconnected with our Creator. The author of the book of Ecclesiastes concludes that a life without God is just vanity, for God is where we find the true meaning of our existence.

Through the Bible: Ecclesiastes

When the wise king Solomon took a good, long look at life, he didn’t find much to satisfy him. Every supposed path to happiness left him with an empty feeling—and a reminder that death would soon end it all anyway. His experience reminds us to “remember our Creator” while there is time and to find hope where it really can be found.

What's the Point, Anyway?

Life "under the sun" can feel empty, chaotic, and uncertain. Solomon wrestled with these realities in Ecclesiastes, confronting the futility of earthly pursuits and the fleeting nature of life. Yet, his reflections point us beyond despair to a life of Kingdom-centered purpose. This 5-day devotional explores key lessons from Ecclesiastes, pairing them with the hope found in Christ. Each day invites you to shift your focus from temporary things to eternal truths, embrace God's wisdom, and gain the objectivity to live for His glory.

God created us to find meaning in our lives. But we live in a broken world where we’re continually frustrated in our search. So, what’s the point of living life? This is the question the Teacher in Ecclesiastes is asking. At first, the message of this wisdom book seems to lead to despair, but in fact points to the hope of life found in God alone.
