In Ecclesiastes: Audio Lectures, scholar and professor George Athas explores the wisdom this ancient book offers us for living out our faith today with integrity, fervor, balance, and devotion. Ecclesiastes doesn't easily fit our preconceptions as Christians. Ecclesiastes' seemingly hedonistic passages and its broodings on life's futility seem at odds with Christ's call to self-denial and his revelation of God's profound purpose for our lives.
Ecclesiastes: Audio Lectures is part of the Zondervan Beyond the Basics Series, which is dedicated to bringing expert teaching from world's best biblical scholars and theologians directly to interested learners. Ecclesiastes, A Video Study breathes life into each passage of the book, guiding learners by exploring each text's historical and canonical setting.
