To Love This Earthly Life:

To Love this Earthly Life is a series of honest but upbeat reflections on themes in Ecclesiastes designed to make lectio divina on the book more fruitful. The book has seven chapters each reflecting on a swirl of themes: vanity, God, wisdom, time, hard times, good times, and carpe diem. The aim is not to arrive at a concise analytic conclusion but to explore how these themes keep popping up all over the place, how they are intertwined, and how they build up a constant message of hope by living in the present.
