Facing the Fog: The Unknown (Ecclesiastes 11:1-10)

About this episode

This episode explores living faithfully amidst uncertainty, emphasizing God's presence and love.

Ecclesiastes 11 reminds us of a simple but unsettling truth: we do not know what the future holds. And yet, the Teacher calls us to boldness. In this message, we explore what it means to live faithfully in the face of uncertainty, to rejoice in God's gifts, to release the burden of control, and to remember that our lives are held by the God who judges and redeems. Because of Jesus Christ, we can move forward with courage, knowing that even when we do not know, we are seen, loved, and known
