What makes life worth living? This is the main question that is being asked in the book of Ecclesiastes. Before we dive into the depths of this question I want to begin by getting to know the one asking it. I want to get to know the author a little bit, so we might see why he is someone worth listening to on the subject.

1. Solomon had self awareness (1 Kings 3:7-8)

2. Solomon desired to please God (1Kings 3:6,9)

3. Solomon's wisdom was housed in a body of flesh. (1 Kings 11)

Conclusion: Why is Solomon a man worth listening to? He was a man who experienced it all both good and bad giving him a wealth of wisdom. He had wisdom directly from God, from his triumphs and from his failures. All which provide a backdrop for our learning.
