Where Lie Your Loyalty?

Ecclesiastes 7:19-29 || David Tarkington (May 5, 2024)

Ontology must lead epistemology. What does this mean? Pastor David explains this vital truth as we look at this portion of Ecclesiastes.

Ecclesiastes 4:1-16 || David Tarkington (March 17, 2024)

Solomon is despairing over the oppression, isolation, and corruption he sees everywhere "under the sun." In this sermon Pastor David focuses on the redemption made possible through Christ as the healing hope for all that creates such despair.

Ecclesiastes 3:16-22 || David Tarkington (March 10, 2024)

Is this all there is? Where is the hope? These are the questions that come from the writer of Ecclesiastes and still resonate with people today. Even Christians sometimes ask these questions. Pastor David takes us through Ecclesiastes 3:16-22 as we seek together to find God's answers to these questions.

Ecclesiastes 3:9-15 || Mike Godfrey (March 3, 2024)

Pastor Mike leads us through this section of Ecclesiastes. The value of knowing oneself and knowing God truly are evident in this passage referring to “eternity being written on our hearts.”

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 || David Tarkington (February 25, 2024)

This passage is most notable today as being the majority of the lyrics to the Pete Seeger song "Turn, Turn, Turn." Yet, this is not simply a Woodstock-era pop song. Pastor David looks at what is revealed in this passage and how it leads to hope in Christ.

Ecclesiastes 2:18-26 || David Tarkington (February 18, 2024)

How does God take someone who hates his life, hates his job, has moved from disgust to despair and lead them to life? Pastor David looks at Solomon's moment here in Ecclesiastes 2. It is hard. It is honest. And...it sounds like it was written in the 21st century rather than hundreds of years before Christ's birth.

Ecclesiastes 2:12-17 || David Tarkington (February 11, 2024)

Even with Solomon, the presumed author of this book, declaring that wisdom is better than folly, he continues to struggle with seeing life as having value. If anyone has ever thought "I hate my life" this sermon is for you. There is good news under the Son. Take heart.

Ecclesiastes 2:1-11 || David Tarkington (February 4, 2024)

Solomon, the Preacher, admits that he tried everything he could in life to find meaning, but it all fell short. This is not unlike the strategy of many today. In this sermon Pastor David shares how there is hope in “holy hedonism” that finds pleasure and joy in Christ.
