Ecclesiastes

Dr. Leong Tien Fock

Course Description:

This course of study is based on Our Reason for Being, a book-length exposition ofEcclesiastes available at http://ourreasonforbeing.blogspot.com, which substitutesfor core lectures. Ecclesiastes presents a comprehensive theology on the meaning of

life and how to experience it. So it speaks powerfully to Christians as well as non-Christians. But it is also one of the most difficult Biblical books to interpret. Thepurpose of this course is to help Christians overcome this obstacle and apply thetheology, whether in a personal, pastoral or a missional context.

Course Format:

Students will mostly be studying on their own. There will be four 2-hours class ses-sions during the course of the study, with one at the beginning and one towards theend. There are prescribed readings to be completed before each session, except for
