Ecclesiastes, found in the Old Testament, belongs to a group of Bible books known as the wisdom books. Together with books like Psalms and Proverbs, Ecclesiastes presents us with Biblical wisdom and insight towards the dealings of daily life. But if you’ve encountered this book before, you may know it more for its 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝘆 drab and pessimistic view of life…

“𝘝𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘷𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴, 𝘴𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘳,
𝘷𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘷𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴! 𝘈𝘭𝘭 𝘪𝘴 𝘷𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺.”

• 𝘌𝘤𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘴 1:2 (𝘌𝘚𝘝)

… 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝘆 - because the book is not purely pessimistic. Rather, we will together explore what Ecclesiastes has to say about the true nature of life, so that we might know how to truly live today.
