It's our final episode of Ecclesiastes, as we study the Teacher's final observations and conclusions. In Chapter 11, we see some wise counsel in light of the unpredictability of life, and an exhortation to remember our Creator in all seasons of life. Chapter 12 starts with a metaphorical account of the natural decline of aging and ends with "the conclusion of the matter." And we'll discuss our own concluding thoughts and takeaways from this season of study.

As we're nearing the end of our time together in Ecclesiastes, today's text brings up some repeated themes with new nuance and depth. In Chapter 9 we'll examine the unpredictability of life and certainty of death, with a reminder to enjoy life while you can! And we discuss the Teacher's collection of proverbs and examples contrasting wisdom and foolishness in Chapter 10. Grab your Bible, read over today's passage, and join us for the discussion!

We've already examined the vanity of life under the sun in a variety of areas this season — wisdom, pleasure, work, relationships, oppression. In today's passage, the Teacher turns to examine wealth, concluding that even riches are meaningless! We'll discuss his observations and then wrap up Chapter 6 with a variety of wisdom for "life under the sun," a theme that will continue into next week's episode.

We'll examine the poem and all the author is inviting us to consider through his reflections on life under the sun. In the second part of today's passage, we contrast the "hevel" we see in our own lives, with the eternal nature of God and his work. Grab your Bible and join us for Ecclesiastes Chapter 3.
