A Life That Lasts | Pt. 4 - A Better Way to Be Human | Ecclesiastes 4:1-5:7
Pastor John Murphy showed us that we often turn relationships into something they were never meant to be by using others, comparing ourselves to others, or convincing ourselves we don’t need anyone. Ecclesiastes reminds us that we were created to need and enjoy relationships, but we can only truly enjoy them when we receive God as our source of life rather than asking people to provide the identity, belonging, and fulfillment only He can give. Through Jesus, we are reconciled to God and to one another, freeing us to love others and receive their love without needing relationships to secure our identity.

A Life That Lasts | Pt. 3 - A Time For Everything | Ecclesiastes 3
In Ecclesiastes 3, Solomon reminds us that life unfolds in seasons we cannot control or fully understand. We long to hold onto good moments, escape painful ones, and know what God is doing with the whole story, but wisdom invites us to receive God and His gifts in the season He has given us, trusting Him with what we cannot see or change. Even in seasons marked by suffering, injustice, and confusion, we can trust that God will ultimately make all things right. Through Jesus, God entered the limits of our time, experienced suffering and injustice, and secured a future where all things will be made new. Because of this hope, we are freed to enjoy the good gifts of today, release what we cannot control, and faithfully live the portion of the story entrusted to us, trusting that “all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.”

A Life That Lasts | Pt. 2 - Dust In The Wind | Ecclesiastes 1:12-2:26
In Part 2 of A Life That Lasts, John Murphy preaches from Ecclesiastes 1:12–2:26, exploring how wisdom, pleasure, possessions, and work are good gifts but cannot provide lasting fulfillment. The Teacher calls us to stop grasping for what these things cannot give and instead receive life as a gift from God. Because Jesus secured a life that lasts through His death and resurrection, we can open our hands, enjoy what God gives, and trust Him with what we cannot keep.
