Ecclesiastes | Two Ditches to Avoid - Season 5, Episode 37

Why do righteous people suffer while the wicked seem to prosper? This tension confronts the expectation that life with God should follow a predictable and fair formula. In Ecclesiastes 7:15–29, Pastor Dorrell examines this paradox, showing that attempts to control outcomes through self-righteousness or abandonment of faith both lead to ruin. The central truth is that God’s ways transcend human understanding, and faith must rest not in outcomes but in His character. The sermon challenges listeners to reject transactional faith and instead trust God fully, even when life defies explanation. The call is to remain steadfast—serving, trusting, and fearing God—regardless of circumstances.
