31/01/2016 Duration: 41minEcclesiastes 3:1-14 - God is above time, but he created time for life here "under the sun". Our challenge is to see God at work in the present in our lives.

Ecclesiastes 02 - Pursuing God
24/01/2016 Duration: 39minEcclesiastes 2 The void in your soul can only be filled with God. While the things that Solomon pursues do provide temporary happiness, they do not permanently satisfy that void in our heart. This week pursue God, not the people or things that you think will provide meaning to your life. True Joy is a gift of God, and it comes to those who take life daily, whatever it may bring, from the hand of a loving Father.
