Listen "The Search: Ecclesiastes 5:8-20"
Episode Synopsis
Rev. James Harper preaches on Ecclesiastes 5:8-20 in our sermon series, "The Search: Questions of Meaning and Purpose." The book of Ecclesiastes reveals that money and possessions cannot provide lasting satisfaction due to our insatiable human appetite, the temporary nature of material things, and wealth's tendency to distract us from real problems. True contentment comes from grounding our satisfaction in God rather than wealth. When properly oriented, money becomes a useful tool that can contribute to happiness through funding experiences with loved ones, buying time for relationships, saving for goals, and giving generously to meaningful causes. The key is displacing money from the center of our lives and replacing it with God, trusting Him to provide for our needs while using wealth as a tool for His glory.
