What Is The Point Of Life?
Stan Coffey
Ecclesiastes 1:1-3
We are beginning a brand new series entitled, "Experiencing Life Before Death." I want you to turn to the Old Testament, Ecclesiastes. Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, right after the book of Proverbs is Ecclesiastes, chapter 1 verse 1. The message is entitled, "What Is The Point of Life?"

How to have inner peace, how to discover real happiness, how to define real purpose and real meaning in life, experiencing life before death. Folks, did you know that Jesus Christ is not just interested in adding years to your life, He wants to add life to your years. He is intere ...
