Your Life Has Meaning (Discovering Your Role In An Epic Story)

Money. Possessions. School. Work. Life. The things of this world. At times it can all feel empty and meaningless. In "Your Life Has Meaning," Luke George Thompson focuses on themes and Bible verses primarily from the book of Ecclesiastes and the life of Solomon to offer you a practical guide to finding meaning in life. Thompson walks you through ideas from thought leaders of the past--Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Camus, Sartre, and other--and the voices from the present found in self-help books, fantasy novels, and entertainment to show how they themselves poke holes in the false sources of meaning that so many chase after. As a teacher of apologetics and a professor who works regularly with college students, Thompson invites you to view the world from God's side of it instead of focusing on life "under the sun." And that's where the true treasure of this book is, as it reminds you that your purpose in life, no matter what your job, is to help others recognize God's love, for this is your "role in an epic story."
