Soul School - Lesson 53: What is the Meaning of Life (Part 4)

October 12, 2016

Part 4 of reading, explanation, and reflection on the ONLY text of the Ancient Near-East that responds to the question, "What is the meaning of life?"

In this episode I draw into focus the absurd nature of suffering and futile nature that life seems to have from our vantage point; and draw some parallels to the Myth of Sisyphus and the work of Albert Camus.

This short series unpacks ancient wisdom text in a new way and includes a reading of Ecclesiastes translated by the late biblical scholar, archeologist, and language translator Dr David A. Dorsey. What you hear might surprise you regarding the context and pragmatic nature of this work, but above all you will get a sense for the importance of living the life we have right now.

Will you connect with me and give me some feedback if you like this series?
