Day 197: The Burden and Beauty of Life — Ecclesiastes 4–6 | Bible In A Year (CSB)


Listen Later

In Ecclesiastes 4–6, the Teacher continues reflecting on the painful realities of life under the sun—oppression, envy, isolation, and the futility of wealth without contentment. Yet woven through these observations is a deeper call to live with wisdom, to find joy in simple things, and to remember that everything we have is a gift from God, not a guarantee of fulfillment.Questions:1. Ecclesiastes 4 contrasts isolation with the strength of companionship. How does this speak to the importance of community, and what role does godly friendship play in a meaningful life?2. Ecclesiastes 5 warns us to approach God with reverence and humility. What does it look like to let our words be few before God, and how can we grow in a posture of awe and trust in worship?3. Ecclesiastes 6 reflects on the emptiness of riches without the ability to enjoy them. How can we learn to pursue contentment rather than constantly striving for more?Use my affiliate link to get the CSB apologetics study bible hereMy video review the CSB Apologetics Study BibleAll our links are here
