Journal of a Mad Man: The Wisdom of Ecclesiastes

Description: What is the meaning of life? The question has been asked by the brightest philosophical minds for centuries. Still to this day answers vary greatly depending on the worldview. Solomon the wisest king in Israels history set all his energies to search for the ultimate meaning of life under the sun. His conclusions may shock and surprise you--vanity chasing after the wind absurdity vanishing smoke. Are these the musings of a genius or of a mad man? If you are looking for a candy-coated appraisal of life then go ahead and put this book down. However if you are looking for a no-frills brutally honest ragged-edged assessment of reality then you have discovered an indispensable volume. In Journal of a Mad Man pastor and author Derrick McCarson will carefully guide readers verse by verse through Solomons meditations recorded in the Old Testament book of wisdom--Ecclesiastes. Not only will readers attempt to plumb the depths of some of mankinds most vexing questions but they will also discover Solomons secrets for wise living in a warped world.
