Scripture

Ecclesiastes 1:4–6

About this sermon

Solomon was away from God and bored with life. His view of life at this time of his life was "Life is a waste! Life is vanity! What's the Use?" He felt he was running in circles and getting nowhere. In this message we look at the circles he mentions and we bring out that life does not have to be boring if you are a Christian. On the contrary, life is exciting when Christ is first in your life. This message was preached at the Wednesday night service at Lincoln Land Baptist Church in Springfield, ILL on July 29, 2020.
