Beskrivning

Trapped in a dark world without a clear a view of God, the writer of Ecclesiastes sought frantically for some light on the path—but indulging in everything this world had to offer left him empty and unfulfilled. After climbing high on life’s ladder, he made the tragic discovery that it was propped against the wrong wall. Cynical about life’s achievements, he began to question—rightly—whether anything mattered or whether everything was only vanity.In this Verse by Verse 12-week study, participants will consider what this challenging and relevant Old Testament meditation has to say about life’s apparent futility. They will also be reminded that there is only one true hope that can give our existence lasting meaning. When so many pass their days running down dead-end streets, we can live with purpose. First, though, we must discover and embrace what it means to fear God, which is the beginning of true wisdom.The Verse by Verse series, based on Alistair Begg’s expository Bible teaching and sermons, captures the heart of Truth for Life as they explore yet another way to teach the Bible with clarity and relevance. Study participants will more fully grasp the value of God’s Word in their lives as they develop tools to read and understand God’s Word before they apply it to their lives.

“Ecclesiastes is one of my favorite Bible books, and Alistair Begg is one of my favorite Bible teachers. What could be better, then, than to have him guide me from its first verse to its last? I’m grateful for this study and grateful for the opportunity it provides to learn about life, faith, and futility from that ancient sage The Preacher.”Tim Challies, Pastor; speaker; author of Seasons of Sorrow“In this Bible study guide, Alistair Begg walks us into the world of Ecclesiastes, where even our best pursuits come up empty and expose a deeper hunger only Jesus can satisfy. Christ, God’s true Wisdom, steps into our vanity-worn lives to redeem our toil, restore our joy, and anchor our fleeting days in lasting hope. In a culture racing down dead-end streets, this guide redirects us to the Son who alone fulfills the longings of every human heart.”Tony Merida, PhD, Pastor, Imago Dei Church; vice president, Send Network“I love the clean simplicity of the Verse by Verse Bible study series, as it gets participants into the text of Scripture under the sound guidance of Alistair Begg without being overwhelming or complicated. This series is perfect for the individual who wants to be challenged to think through the text on their own or for small groups to prepare everyone to talk through the text together.”Nancy Guthrie, Bible teacher; author of the Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament series“This new Bible Study series is marvellous! Alistair Begg has provided us with a rich and succinct orientation to the text and given us the framework to work together on applying the text to ourselves and responding together to God in prayer. What else could we ask for? I pray that this fresh and powerful approach to studying the Bible together will bring much blessing to the church.”Gary Millar, Principal, Queensland Theological College, Australia
