Book Description

August 2002
In the desire and quest to make sense of the world and our existence, three great sirens have lured men and women in their lull with the empty promise to make their life meaningful. The great king of Israel, Solomon, though the wisest man to live, was not immune to their song. But at the end of his life, Solomon, in all of his God-given wisdom, stopped to contemplate what had competed for his attention. He wrote his conclusions in the book of Ecclesiastes.

In The Problem of Life with God Nelson continues his study of Solomon's writings by taking an in-depth look at Ecclesiastes. In a world such as ours, where the search for meaning and purpose propels mankind to try everything under the sun, Solomon's conclusions ring louder than ever for a people who need answers more than ever.

This review is from: The Problem of Life with God: Living with a Perfect God in an Imperfect World (Hardcover)
This book is packed with practical wisdom because it comes from a book whose Author was endowed with wisdom from God. Oh how I wish that this book had been around prior to my years of foolishness beginning in High School. Parents would do their children a great favor if they had their older children read this book while praying that God would give them a heart to understand it. This is definitely not just for kids as I still find so much that applies to my life with all the baggage that I brought into the Christian life!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Hard Read but a Good Read, January 19, 2003

This review is from: The Problem of Life with God: Living with a Perfect God in an Imperfect World (Hardcover)
Like "The Book of Romance," Tommy Nelson makes sense on one of the least studied books of the Bible.

I caution you, however. This is not necessarily an easy read. It gets to be a grudge match at times, but that is the way Solomon wrote it. Nelson does a wonderful job in trying to relate this book to every day usage.

Despite the difficulties in reading this book, it will be well worth it when you finish. I give Nelson an A for the effort he put in to explaining and interpreting this difficult book.

This is a great book for somone trying to understand how God is the fullfillment of all our longings. Many Christians find it difficult to relax and enjoy the life God has sovereignly layed before us. Taste and see that the Lord is good, wise and satisfying.
