Overview

Don't you deserve a little happiness? They are the questions that plague us:

Is happiness within my reach?
Why is life so frustrating?
Is it too late for me?

Or to put it another way, "Where can I find a little heaven on earth?" History's most successful man, Solomon, wondered just that. As David Jeremiah shows you, he was a man who tested life's haunting questions head-on and who found his answers in the last place he thought to look.

Listen, then, to his voice. A voice that, if you pay attention, will speak directly to your flesh and bones and heart. A voice that admits: Maybe happiness is an empty hope. Or maybe we've simply been looking in all the wrong places.

Top Highlights

“twenty-nine times, in this case. Under the sun implies an earthbound view of things.” (Page 2)

“It took wisdom to ask for wisdom; Solomon understood that this one precious gift is the key that opens the door to every other rightful desire.” (Page xviii)

“for Solomon, the wind represented the invisible brevity of life. As Margaret Mitchell” (Page 7)

“It is the vacuum of success, not the fullness of failure, that deflates in the end.” (Page xxii)

“It’s all about people, the older and wearier Solomon reflects in his later years, as he composes Ecclesiastes. People needing people. And what is needed from those people is true, sincere love and friendship, not the power that comes through fame or envy. That’s the point Solomon drives home in these verses.” (Page 100)
