Scripting the Flip - Ecclesiastes - Chapter 11

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Ecclesiastes series.Picture Solomon like a wise grandpa on a final drive, sharing his best advice before you step into life on your own. He reminds us that much in life is unknown — storms come, plans shift, and God's work is often hidden — but our call is to be generous, keep moving, and trust Him.And in the end, his parting words are simple and powerful: rejoice. Enjoy life as the sweet gift it is, thank God for every moment, and don't let anxiety steal the joy He intends for you.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on August 17, 2025, at 10:15am.
