The Pursuit: The Search for Meaning - Week 1 / Ecclesiastes 1:1-18 / Pastor Bartley Sawatsky

In the opening message of our new series, The Pursuit, Pastor Bartley introduces us to the timeless quest for purpose and fulfillment in life. Drawing from Ecclesiastes 1:1-18, he unpacks the reflections of King Solomon, who explored the depths of wisdom, wealth, and human achievement, only to conclude that everything under the sun is ultimately fleeting and unsatisfying. This message challenges us to examine our own pursuits and points us to the only source of true meaning and satisfaction. Join us as we begin this thought-provoking series and discover what it truly means to live a life that matters.

ABOUT THE SERIES Life can feel like a never-ending search for something more—more success, more happiness, more purpose. But what if the answers we’re chasing can’t be found in the places we’re looking? In our new series, The Pursuit, we’ll dive into the book of Ecclesiastes to explore the big questions of life: Why are we here? What truly matters? Can we ever find meaning under the sun? This series invites you to look beyond the superficial and discover how a deeper connection with God brings purpose and hope.

We meet at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday mornings at Cineplex Cinemas, 1175 Maple Ave, Milton. We'd love to meet you and invite you to join us there!
