The swinging pendulum

While the book of Ecclesiastes is unlikely to be the most popular book in the bible, it does contain some passages that are incredibly well-known.  None more so that the poem at the beginning of chapter 3. Immortalised in a song made famous by the Byrds, Solomon’s poem paints a beautiful picture of the seasons of pendulum swings of life.  While the song gave a generation of people hope, in many ways Solomon wrote it to evoke a completely different emotion.  Join Pastor Joe as he helps us see the meaning of this song and live in response to it.
