Ecclesiastes - Session 1 (Chasing Meaning)

In this opening session of our Ecclesiastes study, we confront one of life’s heaviest questions: What actually gives life meaning? The Teacher begins with brutal honesty, describing life as “vapor”...real but fleeting, and difficult to grasp or control. As we look at the cycles of life, the restless search for satisfaction, and the limits of human wisdom, we begin to see why so many pursuits leave us empty. B,ut this honesty is not meant to discourage us; it is meant to lead us toward true wisdom. Ecclesiastes challenges us to examine what we are chasing and pushes us to rediscover the true meaning that is not “under the sun,” but under the rule of God.
