In this week’s insightful new message from Ecclesiastes, Lead Pastor Erwin McManus teaches us the power of choosing others instead of simply living for ourselves.

The passage focuses on the life of Solomon, who found that at the end of his time on Earth, the one thing more precious than wisdom or gold was relationship.  Pastor Erwin shares that those who fail are not those who fall down, but those who fall down without having anyone there to pick them up because they never took the time to invest into building those relationships beforehand.

We move forward by moving together as a community.  Solomon is a reminder in the scriptures that we can have everything and still have nothing when we live a life of isolation.

Pastor Erwin encourages us to be a people who choose to stick with the people God has placed in our lives.  He reminds us as the church, that we were meant to walk through the battles of life together.

If you are someone who is waiting for community to come to you, this message will encourage you to instead seek out community!
