A Better Way to Live (Ecclesiastes 10:1-11:6)

Key Idea: Hold tightly to wisdom in a world of folly, and hold loosely to life under the sun.

  1. Hold tightly to wisdom in a world of folly (10:1-20)
    • Folly is poisonous, but wisdom protects (vv.1-4)
    • Folly is prevalent, but wisdom is precious (vv.5-7)
    • Folly is prideful, but wisdom offers perspective (vv. 8-11)
      • Wisdom with our words (vv. 12-15, 20)
      • Wisdom with our works (vv .16-19)
  2. Hold loosely to life under the sun (11:1-6)
