Composure for Life's Challenges

Pastor Brent Snook

In today's sermon, Pastor Snook encourages us to think about life in reverse—keeping our end in mind so we can live wisely now. From Ecclesiastes, we learn six key principles to help us stay calm when life gets tough. Like a pilot trusting their instruments in turbulence, we should keep our focus on God’s truth during chaos. The message highlights humility, wisdom, and patience as important virtues. While many things—like death and hardships—are beyond our control, we can have peace by trusting God. With this perspective, we can enjoy the present, find joy even in hard times, and appreciate life’s simple blessings, just as Solomon taught.
