Church Family,
This past Sunday, as we continued our series in Ecclesiastes, we wrestled with the agony that results from injustice in the world, particularly when those who have authority use that authority maliciously. If such injustice was the fate of humanity forever then we would be no better than mere beasts. But as God’s people we can know that Christ will one day return and bring perfect justice to bear upon all creation. Even as we witness or are subject to injustice now, we can find peace in this hope that we have and live joyfully in the life that God has given us now as we anticipate the eternal life that is to come.
Passage for this upcoming Sunday: Ecclesiastes 4:4-16
Sunday Studies
We’ll be starting a new series in our Sunday Studies on the 22nd that will be focused on addressing key recurring themes in the book of Ecclesiastes. As we have already found in our sermons on Ecclesiastes, the book weaves in and out of many major ideas to work them into one another and create a rich philosophical and theological tapestry. Still, it can be helpful to us to focus in on a few of those individual threads and follow how they are used throughout the book. This class will allow us to address the themes and questions of Ecclesiastes directly and conversationally and help us to better engage with the text as we continue to work through the book in our sermons.
Grace be with you,
Logan Murphy
