Right Now Counts Forever: Themes from Ecclesiastes with R.C. Sproul

Summary

The sermon's main theme is finding ultimate meaning in life, countering the despair of a secular perspective ("under the sun"). It draws on Ecclesiastes' exploration of futility with a shift to a heavenly perspective ("under heaven") which introduces the concept of divine "purpose." The practical takeaway is that even amidst uncertainty about God's plan, our present moments have eternal significance because God is sovereign and directs all things towards a meaningful end.
