In this week's sermon, we continue our Fall series "The Promise and Problem of More," exploring Solomon's pursuit of satisfaction in riches and possession as captured in Ecclesiastes.

Here we will contrast this with the Good News of the Kingdom: True fulfillment is found only in Jesus, who offers genuine abundance and purpose. Join us as we learn to redirect our eternal longings toward the Eternal Treasure, who is Christ the Lord!
