Life Under the Sun (Paperback)

Does life have meaning? Does history have direction? Do we have a purpose? When Solomon cried out that everything was meaningless, was he agreeing with existentialism that life is hopeless and humans are helpless? "Thus I considered all of my activities which my hands had done and the labor I had exerted, and behold all was vanity and striving after the wind and there was no profit under the sun." But Solomon does not stop with life under the sun--life as we live it apart from God. He boldly proclaims that life does have meaning, history does have direction, and man does have a purpose. Life Under the Sun shows not only the meaning of existence, but the relevance of the Book of Ecclesiastes to the current age.
