May 24, 2020 The Pursuit of Wealth, Ecclesiastes 5:10-6:12 (4:7-12)
The pursuit of material wealth does not deliver on the promises it makes but ultimately frustrates the one in search of it. Contrary to our world’s understanding, contentment in life is found in meaningful relationships with others and, through Christ, in relationship with God our creator who is the only one worthy of our ultimate pursuit. Ironically, through Christ, we can find joy in the temporary pleasures of this world when we receive them as good gifts coming from his hand. Series: Chasing After Wind. Speaker: Josh Lindstrom. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 5:10-6:12 (4:7-12).

May 17, 2020 The Need for Faith, Ecclesiastes 5:1-7
Every Sunday millions of people will stream into churches. They will do similar things in similar ways and from the outside appear uniform in their behaviors. In Ecclesiastes 5:1-7, the Preacher warns of the danger in approaching God flippantly and highlights the need for reverence and faith to saturate our practices. Thankfully, through Christ we can “with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16). Series: Chasing After Wind. Speaker: Josh Lindstrom. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 5:1-7.

May 10, 2020 The Reality of Life, Ecclesiastes 3:16-22, 4:1
When the toddler is sent to bed earlier than her older siblings she may well exclaim “It’s not fair!” Even from our youth, we have a sense of justice, a sense of the way things are supposed to be. As we grow older, we recognize that justice is not always served. The Preacher wrestles with this question, and while he hopes for justice in the end, he resigns himself to this fallen world and its need for a righteous judge. Series: Chasing After Wind. Speaker: Josh Lindstrom. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 3:16-22, 4:1.

May 03, 2020 The March of Time, Ecclesiastes 3:1-15
There is a tedious and repetitive meaningless to the world in which we live; for all that we could look forward to is often mitigated by the curse of sin in this fallen world. We celebrate the birth of a child but acknowledge at some point that new life will itself come to an end. While we realize there is a time for everything, God has put eternity into our hearts so that we can recognize that something is not right. This recognition should drive us to God, who stands outside of time and holds all things together. Series: Chasing After Wind. Speaker: Josh Lindstrom. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 3:1-15.

April 26, 2020 The American Nightmare, Ecclesiastes 2:1-26
God has given us good gifts, but in our sin, we have made those gifts ends in and of themselves. We obtain what we desire, only to desire what we do not have. All of our pursuits, be it pleasure, wisdom or work will fall decidedly short apart from one finding their joy and contentment in God’s simple gifts. Our culture pursues a dream that will ultimately turn into a nightmare. We have opportunity to live differently and, through Christ, model what true contentment looks like. Series: Chasing After Wind. Speaker: Josh Lindstrom. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 2:1-26.

April 19, 2020 The Relentless Pursuit, Ecclesiastes 1:1-18
This earth is not as it should be, “For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God” (Romans 8:20-21). The Preacher wrestles with this reality and its implications for our daily life. In the end, our only hope is to find our satisfaction and joy in the person and work of Jesus and look forward to the day when we are set free from the monotony of this life and the effects of sin. Series: Chasing After Wind. Speaker: Josh Lindstrom. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 1:1-18.

April 12, 2020 Easter | The Power of God, 1 Corinthians 1:18–2:5
Over the last 40 years, the ministry of Woodmen Valley Chapel has endured not because its people were wiser, more powerful or more noble than others, but because of the righteousness, sanctification, and redemption of God. Our history and our future rest not in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. This Easter, we again call on all who would hear, regardless of failures or resumes, to confess Christ as Lord by faith and enter into new life. Series: Jesus: The Wisdom & Power of God. Speaker: Josh Lindstrom. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:18–2:5.

April 10, 2020 Good Friday | The Folly of the Cross, 1 Corinthians 1:18
To die upon a Roman cross was the most brutal and humiliating death one could imagine. And yet, it was on a Roman cross that our Savior bled and died for us. Though folly to a fallen world, to us who are being saved it is the power of God. Today, the cross is seen everywhere. It adorns the tops of churches and people’s necks, but commonplace as it may be, it remains the enduring symbol of God’s magnificent love for us. Series: Jesus: The Wisdom & Power of God. Speaker: Josh Lindstrom. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:18.
