Micah Labovitch - June 22, 2025

The Experimental Life (Ecclesiastes 1:12-2:26)

Ecclesiastes: A Life Worth Living
  • Watch
  • Listen

Join us as we continue our study of the book of Ecclesiastes presented by Senior Pastor Micah Labovitch. Today's sermon tackles the topic of existentialism - why do we exist. The Preacher of Ecclesiastes goes about trying to solve this problem and finds that everything he does to find satisfaction in life is pointless, like trying to grab smoke or wind. Where, then, can satisfaction in life be found? Listen for his answer.

Scripture References: Ecclesiastes 1:12-18, Ecclesiastes 2:1-26

From Series: "Ecclesiastes: A Life Worth Living"

Ecclesiastes starts with the words, “Meaningless! Meaningless!” to describe humanity’s life here on Earth. While we are not able to control everything in our lives nor fully grasp God’s plan, we are called to rely on the one who can. Ecclesiastes invites us to live with open hands and faithful hearts, finding joy not in what we control, but in who we know: a good, purposeful, loving and eternal God. Join us on June 8th as the Bible teaches us about A Life Worth Living!

Our Vision

Faith is a Journey

You never really “arrive” at becoming a mature disciple maker. We are all called to continually grow deeper in our relationship with Jesus, to grow in love for others, to get better at blessing those around us and to increasingly share the love of Jesus with everyone. At GREFC we realize this through four key areas: Connect, Equip, Serve & Go!
