Radically Christian What is Ecclesiastes All About?
Ecclesiastes might be more important and relevant to your life than you think. Does life feel like a relentless grind, work, dishes, routines, repeat? Discover how the ancient book of Ecclesiastes speaks directly to modern anxieties about meaning, success, and fulfillment. Join Wes McAdams and author Michael Whitworth as they explore how this misunderstood biblical book offers surprising wisdom on joy, contentment, and gratitude in everyday life.
Learn why it’s better to go to a funeral than a party, how Ecclesiastes corrects prosperity-gospel thinking, and why this honest, sometimes uncomfortable, book ultimately points us to Jesus. Whether you’re battling existential angst or chasing the next achievement, this conversation will help you stop expecting life to bear more weight than it was meant to carry.
