Continuing in chapter four of Ecclesiastes, Solomon goes on to lament the vanity of popularity over influence. In this week's sermon, Pastor Sonny explains how the best and lasting kind of influence comes from a person's character, and not their popularity, and that as Solomon points out, it's better to have no position or status but be humble enough to take advice.

In chapter four of Ecclesiastes, Solomon explains another way in which people vainly chase after the wind by always trying to "keep up with the Joneses" rather than encouraging one another and being happy for each other's successes. As Pastor Sonny explains in this week's sermon, life is not about competition, we each have our own race to run, and if we can see the value of contentment, humility, and love in Christ we can more effectively work together to help those who are oppressed in this world.

In chapters three and four of Ecclesiastes, Solomon tells us that because of the wickedness in the places of justice and because of wickedness in the places of righteousness, there are a lot of oppressed people on earth, and that the poor and oppressed will always be among us. However, as Pastor Sonny tells us in this week's sermon, there is still hope for even the poorest, and that we are called to reach out to them and share with them the only real hope that exists.

The first few verses of Ecclesiastes 3 are some of the best-known in the Bible, but what do they actually mean for us in light of our Christian walk? In the fifth sermon in our expository series on Ecclesiastes, Pastor Sonny explains how this is actually God's recipe for our lives.

Continuing our expository series on Ecclesiastes, Pastor Sonny moves into the latter part of Chapter 2, discussing the Preacher's assessment of both wisdom and work as being meaningless unless we find the enjoyment in it from staying focused on God.

Pastor Sonny continues last week's sermon with a look at the first part of Ecclesiastes 2, where the Preacher in Ecclesiastes outlines all that he tried in his grand experiment, still finding it all meaningless and without satisfaction, and that we should honestly look at our lives through the Preacher’s eyes and evaluate what we find meaningful in order to truly find the key to living a meaningful life.

Moving into the meat of the Book of Ecclesiastes, Pastor Sonny talks about how the Preacher in the book explains that life is unpredictable, yet routine, and that our pursuit of new things and new experiences, while intended to bring excitement in life, ultimately end up being meaningless, and the only key to finding wisdom and happiness is to know the Son of God as your only source of hope and salvation.

This week Pastor Sonny begins our new expository series on the Book of Ecclesiastes, with an introductory message explaining why we should be studying Ecclesiastes and the approach that we will be taking as we go through this book of Old Testament Wisdom Literature.

This week is Covenant Sunday and the Installation of new Elders, Deacons, and other Church Leaders, and Pastor Sonny offers exhortation and encouragement regarding the responsibilities of both leaders and members in the church in light of Jesus' parable of the talents in Matthew 25:14–30.

How should we respond when we're seeking God and things in our lives don't go exactly the way we had planned? Pastor Sonny draws on the God's Word and some of his own personal life experiences in outlining how even when the seemingly good plans that we've made don't work out, we can always trust that God's plan is infinitely better.
