We all experience moments in life where we aren’t sure what we’re living for. So we look to create meaning from our work or look for it in our relationships or accomplishments. Yet even the best of experiences — marriage and sex, a good movie, a great job, a wonderful vacation — can still leave us feeling empty inside. The book of Ecclesiastes challenges our perception of the things of earth, and helps us see that while they are gifts of God, they are not designed to give us meaning and purpose.
