Ecclesiastes is important because it asks the questions many of us are afraid to ask in church, and it doesn't give the answers. Thankfully, we find the answers in Jesus.

Details

Ecclesiastes is a challenging book that is so important for young people to wrestle their way through. The author repeatedly claims that "everything is meaningless," lamenting their lack of control, their perceived futility, the anguish of getting what they want, and still being miserable. In other words, these are the same questions so many wrestle with today. Is there a point? Why are we here? If there is a God, why won't He clue me in on what's happening? Ecclesiastes is important because it asks the questions many of us are afraid to ask in church, and it doesn't give the answers. Thankfully, we find the answers in Jesus.

This series includes manuscripts, PowerPoint presentations, student handouts, small group guides, and social media images.
