We all want to know our lives matter. So did the Teacher in
Ecclesiastes. He invested time and energy in every activity he
could think of that might bring meaning and purpose to his life but
found only disappointment, frustration, hopelessness. In our thirst
for significance we, like the Teacher, give our lives--our time,
talents, strength, heart--to anything we think will give us worth
and purpose: Power. Relationships. Money. Pleasure. Work. But
worshiping these idols has a high cost--and still doesn't bring the
fulfillment we long for. In Breaking the Idols of Your Heart Dan
Allender and Tremper Longman illuminate for us the Teacher's
warnings and, after all his activities, his final radiant
conclusion: Meaning and purpose come only when God is truly the
center of our life and the object of our hope. Using a compelling
fictional narrative at the start of each chapter to encourage
reflection on our own life and the lives of family and friends, the
authors lead us through Ecclesiastes to help us recognize and
exchange cheap pursuits for the only One worth pursuing.
Ecclesiastes is not an easy book to read, because transferring our
worship from money, power and fame to God is not an easy road to
travel. But as the Teacher discovered and wrote down for us, it
leads to one conclusion: life lived abundantly, in freedom, hope,
purpose, meaning.
