Summary: <p>The Transience of Hedonism</p> <p> </p> <p>Scripture: Ecclesiastes 2:1-11</p> <p>Speaker: Jon Morales, Lead Pastor of Oak Pointe Church</p> <p> </p> <p>Have you ever tried something just to try it? Maybe you wanted to see what it was like or what effect it had on you, and by doing so, learn if you’d ever want to try it again - like bungee jumping or eating escargot. That’s the approach the author of Ecclesiastes takes toward pleasure. He tried everything: drinking and imprudence, building estates, amassing wealth, licentious relationships. In the end, he found none of these desires delightful. But the maturing Christian can learn from this teacher’s experiment with pleasure and follow God’s path instead.</p>
