Description
It’s almost as if there’s a conspiracy to deny how hard life is. Rather than frankly face life’s devastations, we shelter under pleasant illusions and reach for the next soothing distraction. But we cannot find real happiness there. Modern life is a conveyor belt toward burnout; by unpacking the message of the biblical book of Ecclesiates, Everything Is Never Enough invites readers to jump off the belt and find lasting joy.
Ecclesiastes is written by someone who had it all, tried it all, did it all, and saw it all. He plunged into learning, work, money, possessions, food and drink, sex, power—all the things the modern world promises will bring us happiness. Through the lens of Ecclesiastes, Bobby Jamieson reveals how none of those offers lasting gain. None is strong enough to build your life on. None is big enough to fill your heart.
This book will wound you before it heals, but the journey will be well worth the effort. By facing the difficult reality that everything is never enough, you'll discover what is, clearing the ground for firm happiness founded on God's gift.
