In Chapter 2, we follow the Teacher’s quest for meaning as he experiments with pleasure, wisdom, and work. “What is good for people to do under the heavens during the few days of their lives?” (Ecc. 2:3) With far more resources at his disposal than most of us will ever have, we can learn a lot from his pursuits – and their ultimate conclusion. We wrap up today’s episode by noticing the areas of our own lives where we most feel “hevel.”

Grab your Bible and read through Chapter 2, then join us for the discussion!

We're kicking off Season 6 and our study through Ecclesiastes! In today's episode, we set the stage for our study of this wisdom book by first looking at some background information: authorship, time period, audience, key themes, and more. Then we jump into Chapter 1 and the beginning of the Teacher's quest to find satisfaction in life, starting with his observations on the meaninglessness (vapor, hevel) of life we see in nature and the pursuit of wisdom. Join us as we start our fall study!

We end our summer series today with Kristy sharing a glimpse from the middle ground of chronic suffering. She shares the biblical and theological struggles she wades through in the experience of her pain and how the Lord continues to speak into her questions. Matt and Kelly join in the conversation with their own experiences and wisdom. We hope that this episode is a validating place for you to see believers wrestling with suffering with honesty and humility.

Our summer series continues with each person talking through what they are thinking about in their walk with the Lord. In this episode, Micah swirls around the ideas of what an act of worship looks like. Does every act of worship need to create a legacy that lasts for years? Is it okay to do something out of worship knowing that it will not last? Join us as we talk about small acts of worship, being aware of whose name we are attaching to our work to, and struggling through hard but good seasons.

Today we continue our summer series by having impromptu conversations about what God is doing in each of our lives. In this episode, Matt shares how he is leaning into finding rest and moments of calm with the Lord while there is so much uncertainty in his life right now. Micah and Kelly chime in and share what rest looks like for them. Rest can look different in each season of life or from person to person. How are you resting in God during this season in your life?

We kick off our summer series today with a topic that Kelly's been thinking about this summer: the Trinity. Have you ever struggled to understand and articulate the Trinity? You're in good company. Today we discuss what Christians believe about the Trinity and why it's important to get it right. We also look at some practical implications of the Trinity in our relationship with God and others and touch on the importance of learning about tricky subjects in community.

Introducing our Summer Series! This month, we're having impromptu conversations about what God has been teaching us, what's on our hearts, and what we're curious about/learning right now. In today's channel update episode, we'll introduce our summer series, give you some channel and personal updates from our hosts, and announce our study topic for this fall.
