When Bad is Better (Pt. 1)
At first glance, the Bible is filled with paradoxes like “the first shall be last,” and “love your enemies.” Turning conventional wisdom upside-down reveals deeper truth, and Dr. David Jeremiah explores several examples from Solomon’s book of Ecclesiastes.
The Cul-de-Sacs of Life
Why do so many people who pursue wealth end up disappointed when they find it? Perhaps they emphasized the gift more than the giver. Dr. David Jeremiah considers the consequences of living apart from God, as seen through the eyes of Solomon.
Taking Your Troubles to Church
How do you react during the trials of life? Do you tend to blame God for your situation? Have you ever made a deal with Him for rescuing you? Dr. David Jeremiah returns to Ecclesiastes where Solomon shares his wisdom on how best to approach God when life is hard.
When Your World Doesn't Make Sense (Pt. 2)
Some people would give anything for fame and fortune, even if it meant abandoning their friends. King Solomon would say those priorities are backwards. Dr. David Jeremiah looks at the relative value of relationships and riches.
Beautiful in His Time
In our culture of instant gratification, we hate to wait. But it’s a skill every Christian ought to develop. Dr. David Jeremiah explains why God’s perfect timing is always worth waiting for.
When Your World Doesn't Make Sense (Pt. 1)
Even with all of his wisdom, there were things Solomon couldn’t understand – like how a good God could allow injustice. Maybe you’ve wondered the same thing. Dr. David Jeremiah examines the dangers of trying to make God fit our own ideas about justice, fairness and the world.
Beautiful in His Time (Pt. 2)
In our culture of impatience and instant gratification, we cringe at the idea of waiting. But it’s a skill every Christian ought to develop. Dr. David Jeremiah considers why it’s always best to wait on God’s timing, even when we don’t understand why.
Beautiful in His Time (Pt. 1)
You can’t see it, but you can see its effects all around you every day – even when you look in the mirror. Time is the focus as Dr. David Jeremiah continues his study in the book of Ecclesiastes. You know how time affects your body, but have you ever considered what it does to your soul and spirit?
Sorting Out Your Life (Pt. 2)
Does your search for meaning and purpose feel like a lost cause? That’s because it is a lost cause without God in your life. Dr. David Jeremiah reminds us that even Solomon, with all his wisdom, found only futility in life apart from God.
Sorting Out Your Life (Pt. 1)
If your journey toward purpose and fulfillment has led you to neither, you’re probably using the wrong map. Dr. David Jeremiah shares insights from Solomon, who looked for fulfillment everywhere under the sun – and learned that it can only be found in one source.
