A Time For Everything

Is there really "a time for everything"? In Ecclesiastes 3, the Preacher reflects on the seasons of life — a time to be born and a time to die, a time for war and a time for peace. In this sermon, Dr. Toby Holt explores the rhythms of our existence and where lasting meaning is found. Questions this sermon answers: 1. Who wrote this passage, and why? Traditionally Solomon, reflecting on life's fleeting seasons and the search for meaning "under the sun." 2. Why does life seem futile "under the sun"? Because apart from God, everything passes and nothing satisfies — life feels like chasing the wind. 3. What changes "under heaven"? When God is at the center, the seasons gain purpose. He makes everything beautiful in its time and sets eternity in our hearts. "To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven." — Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NKJV) Dr. Toby Holt is President of New Geneva Theological Seminary, and his sermons have been downloaded more than 1.9 million times on SermonAudio.
