In this Vanishing series message, Dom Gibson looks at Ecclesiastes 2:1–11 and the Preacher’s search for meaning through pleasure, possessions, and achievements. Despite having freedom and resources, the Preacher finds that none of it offers lasting satisfaction or purpose. He explains how pursuing pleasure and success as ends in themselves is empty. Ecclesiastes shows the limits of worldly offerings and urges us to consider where we seek meaning and fulfillment. When desires become our focus, even good things can leave us empty. The message reminds us that life's true purpose isn’t found in ourselves or our accomplishments, but in God. It encourages us to look beyond temporary pleasures and find deeper satisfaction in knowing and trusting our Creator.Series: VanishingScripture: Ecclesiastes 2:1–11Speaker: Dom GibsonSubscribe for weekly sermons and biblical teaching from Grant Church.#Ecclesiastes #Vanishing #DomGibson #BibleTeaching #MeaningOfLife #Purpose #ChristianFaith #BiblicalWisdom #Solomon #GrantChurch #FindingMeaningWatch the complete service: https://www.youtube.com/live/wWc6zwfjGq0?si=evD0cZtJMk6dax_vWe would love to hear from you!Instagram: @grantchurch.caFacebook: grantchurch.caEngage on our website: https://www.grantchurch.ca

Cam Stephens explores Ecclesiastes 1:12–18 and the Preacher’s pursuit of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. While wisdom and education can be valuable gifts, Ecclesiastes reveals the danger of pursuing them as ends in themselves, without recognizing the God who gives them and the limits of human understanding.Cam unpacks the tension between pursuing wisdom and living in a broken world. The more the Preacher discovers, the more he recognizes the burdens and limitations of human knowledge. This passage challenges us to consider whether our pursuit of education, wisdom, and knowledge ultimately leads us toward God or becomes another way of finding meaning apart from Him.As we continue through Ecclesiastes, we are reminded that knowledge alone cannot provide the lasting purpose we seek. True wisdom begins by recognizing God as the source of all things and looking beyond what we can understand to the One who holds our lives and our world in His hands.Series: VanishingScripture: Ecclesiastes 1:12–18Speaker: Cam StephensSubscribe for weekly sermons and biblical teaching from Grant Church.#Ecclesiastes #Vanishing #CamStephens #BibleTeaching #BiblicalWisdom #Wisdom #Knowledge #MeaningOfLife #Solomon #GrantChurch #ChristianFaithWatch the complete service: https://www.youtube.com/live/27VhL1bhCmc?si=hQFGsKPhh15qP2_WWe would love to hear from you!Instagram: @grantchurch.caFacebook: grantchurch.caEngage on our website: https://www.grantchurch.ca

In the opening message of the new sermon series, Vanishing, Cam Stephens introduces the book of Ecclesiastes and explores Ecclesiastes 1:1–11. Traditionally attributed to King Solomon, this profound book of wisdom examines life's meaning, the limits of human achievement, and the pursuit of lasting purpose in a constantly changing world.Cam unpacks the literary style and central themes of Ecclesiastes, including the meaning behind the powerful phrase “vanity of vanities.” As the 'Preacher' reflects on life's repetitive patterns, the fleeting nature of human accomplishments, and the world's apparent cycles, we are invited to consider what truly lasts and where lasting meaning can be found.This message begins a journey through one of the Bible’s most honest and thought-provoking books. As we explore Ecclesiastes, we will be challenged to look beyond temporary achievements and worldly pursuits and discover what Scripture teaches us about life, purpose, and God.Series:VanishingScripture:Ecclesiastes 1:1–11Speaker:Cam StephensSubscribe for weekly sermons and biblical teaching from Grant Church.#Ecclesiastes #Vanishing #CamStephens #BibleTeaching #BiblicalWisdom #MeaningOfLife #VanityOfVanities #Solomon #GrantChurch #ChristianFaithWatch the complete service: https://youtube.com/live/UH9QLSHQeScWe would love to hear from you!Instagram: @grantchurch.caFacebook: grantchurch.caEngage on our website: https://www.grantchurch.ca

In this message, Pastor Cam Stephens explores Psalm 46 and highlights that God's sovereignty remains firm amid an unpredictable, divided, or chaotic world. In a culture troubled by political strife and worldly distractions, this psalm reminds us to stay grounded in our true citizenship. As followers of Jesus, we are called to prioritize God’s Kingdom, His purposes, and His presence. Psalm 46 reassures us that God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble. Political conflicts are not our main battle, and fear does not have the final word. Regardless of the circumstances, God is with His people.This message encourages us to trust in God, maintain an eternal perspective, and pursue greater, lasting things.Grant Church – Winnipeg, ManitobaScripture:Psalm 46Speaker:Cam StephensTopics covered:• God is in control• Finding refuge and strength in God• Living with an eternal perspective• Our citizenship in Heaven• Faith in uncertain times• God’s presence with His people• Trusting God above earthly conflictsSubscribe for weekly sermons and biblical teaching from Grant Church.#Psalm46 #TrustGod #GodIsInControl #ChristianLiving #EternalPerspective #BibleTeaching #GrantChurch #CamStephens #FaithOverFear #GodWithUsWatch the complete service: https://youtube.com/live/7OKQ7eyEHSoWe would love to hear from you!Instagram: @grantchurch.caFacebook: grantchurch.caEngage on our website: https://www.grantchurch.ca
