Speaker: Pastor Scott Townsell

Week 1: Life Under the Sun

Text: Ecclesiastes 1:1–11

Theme: The Vanity of Life

Summary: Solomon introduces the book by declaring that all is vanity. Life feels like a never-ending cycle without purpose unless viewed through God’s lens.

Analysis of Chapter

  • Without God, all human actions are meaningless and empty. (1-3)
  • Man’s toil and lack of satisfaction. (4-8)
  • There is nothing new. (9-11)

Questions:

  • Why do you think Solomon uses the word “vanity” so often?
  • What parts of your life feel repetitive or meaningless?

Application: Reflect on areas where you are chasing meaning apart from God.
