A Wise Perspective on Work (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Do you find joy and satisfaction in your work? Or do you consider work a necessary evil? Many of us spend huge portions of our life working, sometimes doing paid work, other times unpaid. You might say that work is a common theme in each of our lives. It’s also a common theme in the book of Ecclesiastes. In his writings, the Teacher repeatedly comes to the conclusion that work, labor, and toil are meaningless. But is it really that simple? If we carefully study the Teacher’s conclusions, we’ll d
When Life is Meaningless (opens the original)

Read excerpt
Humans are sinful; therefore, the feeling of guilt is inevitable. Guilt has weight; it becomes a burden we struggle under even after we know we’ve been forgiven. The author of Hebrews offers weary believers reassurance that God has provided the means to deal with our guilt once and for all.

Together, we’ll discover how t
