Emma Dotter is back with Ben Krejci talking Ecclesiastes 9. No matter the good or bad, God has allowed both in the world. But Ecclesiastes 9 highlights that we even have life at all! Ben tells us to look at this passage in light of the rest of Scripture, because God loves us and cares about us in the good and the bad. Ecclesiastes paired with the rest of the Bible gives comfort to the Christian, there is hope and purpose in life and in death. 
 
 Additional Scriptures used in this passage 
 Ephesians 2:10, “But we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works.”
