SUMMER 2022 Re-Create

Nothing Better!

Ecclesiastes 2:17-26; 3:22

Paradise Lost: Edenic echoes abound in creation, but the fallen nature of it all drowns them out with discordant tones of brokenness.

We live in the shadow of death.

In sum, death has pointed its headlights at us and started its engine. Therefore, we must learn from God how to enjoy what he has given to us, knowing that none of it can save or satisfy us . . . So it is with our spouses, our food, our work, and our place in the world. Neither of these can satisfy our souls or provide the gain that only God can give. Trying to use them as such will only disappoint us.

-Zack Eswine, Recovering Eden

There is someone wiser than Solomon!

The Hand of God is the key to our Hope in Life!

These creations are God-given and possess divine purpose. A joy resides within them for our notice and this by his design. We are meant to taste these joys for which God’s gifts were made.

-Zack Eswine, Recovering Eden

Find joy in the everyday --- that is where we live!
