Study
Three general questions for digging deeper:
- What does this text teach us about God?
- What does this text teach us about ourselves?
- If this text is true, what should we do to obey this teaching?
Questions specific to the September 27 sermon from Ecclesiastes 2:1-26:
- Where are you tempted to find satisfaction or fulfillment from in this life? Does it work? Why or why not?
- Notice how Qoheleth experiments with different ways to make life work. What are those experiments? Why won’t these attempts work in the long run?
- What are the hints that Qoheleth gives to his readers for how to focus life?
- What is the source of satisfaction and contentment in this life?
