A Sobering Start - Audio

from Cornerstone Church - Atlanta, GA · host John Onwuchekwa

The garden of our ideal life is littered with disappointments. Nothing in the life that we have is disappointment proof--regardless of how hard we work to make it so. When it comes to the business of living, we find ourselves moving from asking "how do I accomplish my goals" to "why do I exist? what am I even working for?". As we start our series in Ecclesiastes we see that the author of the book found himself in the same place. His conclusion is a sobering one, but it's only the starting point.
