St. Paul's Church - Willington, Ct

This week we began a new sermon series on the Old Testament wisdom book of Ecclesiastes. This book surprises many when they discover it in their Bibles: it sounds despairing and cynical. "Meaningless! Meaningless! Everything is meaningless!" it declares. As depressing as it may sound, Ecclesiastes offers a perspective that God wants us to hear. It "goads us" toward the holy ache.
