Ecclesiastes 1 Part 2

May 6, 2019

Ecclesiastes is one of the most practical books in the bible, because it asks a question we ll ask from time to time - what’s the point of life? Now, you would think that a man like Solomon, who had everything a person could want, would never ask that question, but he was really lost at this point in his life. Join us in Ecclesiastes chapter one.

Solomon may have been the first man who suffered a “mid-life crisis”. He had about everything a man could want, yet he felt empty. I don’t know about you, but I know many people who are in that place today. So what is the point of it all? Beginning today, we’ll answer that question with an in depth look at Ecclesiastes.

Today we bring you Al Pittman's final message in his verse by verse series through Colossians. If you summed up this letter, it would be a loving warning to the church of Colossi that they had strayed from the true gospel and were more interested in philosophy and “higher thought” than  the real message of repentance and salvation through Christ.

Have you ever had that feeling that someone was watching you? Well, if you’re a Christian, that feeling is legitimate, because the world is watching. We have an awesome responsibility as believers to live a pure and holy life - so the world will see the difference Christ has made in our lives.

We’re currently studying Colossians, and we’ll be in chapter four, verses two through four. The subject is prayer - and why we should always seek the Lord first and foremost! Too many of us use prayer as a “last resort”, and that’s a real shame. It’s as if we’re telling God, “OK, I can’t figure this out, so it’s your turn to try”. Is that really the message we want to send to God?

Today, as we continue our series through Colossians, we look at chapter four, verses two through four. Here, the apostle Paul gives some sage advice about prayer. Prayer is a wonderful gift from God, but it’s wasted by far too many Christians. Can your prayer life be described as “vigilant”?

Today on The Dwelling Place, we’re going to see that one of the best places to demonstrate the presence of God in your life is in the workplace - whether your a worker or the boss! Pastor Al Pittman will be looking at the first verse of Colossians chapter four, so turn there in your Bible if you can and join us!

Today were looking at the last few verses of Colossians chapter three, and we’ll get into the relationship between employers and employees. As in every other area of life, there are right and wrong ways for both bosses and workers to act.

If you’re a parent, I’m sure you could use some encouraging words about raising Godly kids. It’s a tough job, isn’t it? But God has a specific plan for us parents - and He’s always there for us in those times when we become frustrated.  Today’s study is in Colossians chapter three, verses twenty and twenty one.

For the last couple of broadcasts, Al has been discussing Husbands and Wives, and today we’re going to move along to the other members of the family - the kids. Children are a real blessing - and a real challenge. But God knows what’s best when it comes to raising Godly children. I think we can all testify to the fact that there are a lot of parents out there who could really use a refresher course in raising kids properly.

We come back to pastor Al Pittman’s look at Husbands and Wives today, as we consider Colossians three, verses eighteen and nineteen.  Wives submitting to their husbands has been a controversial subject for as long as people have been reading these verses. The only reason there’s any controversy is that people have consistently misinterpreted what Paul’s meaning is.

About Al Pittman

Al was born in Panama City, Florida in 1955. His father was a career soldier, so the family traveled extensively. In 1973, when Al was seventeen years old, the family returned from a tour in Germany and settled in Colorado Springs. Soon after, Al realized God’s call on  his life and began serving in the music ministry as a bass guitarist with a Christian band  called, “The Rays of Light.” It was during this time that Al met Norma, and they were married on July 19, 1975. 

Al attended Nazarene Bible College in Colorado Springs, graduating in 1977 with a degree in Biblical Studies. In 1991 Al and his family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and two years later he joined the staff of Calvary Chapel Albuquerque as an assistant pastor and co-worship leader. In the spring of 1997 the Lord called Al and his family back to Colorado Springs to pastor Calvary Worship Center. In 2006, Al earned his Master’s degree and in 2012 he earned his Doctorate degree in Ministry from Trinity Southwest University in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Al and Norma are the proud parents of three children, Renee, Nathan and Reggie, as well as proud grandparents. They covet your prayers for their family and ministry as they endeavor to live a life pleasing to the Father.
