Pastor Snook preaches his final sermon on the series "Living Life Backward". We're reminded of the timeless truths found in the book of Ecclesiastes. Solomon's journey from wisdom to folly, and back again, serves as a poignant reminder of our own struggles and the importance of staying rooted in God's Word. We're challenged to accept life as it comes, appreciate every stage of our journey, and analyze our choices through the lens of biblical wisdom.

The sermon emphasizes three keys to a fulfilled life: remembering our Creator, fearing God, and keeping His commandments. As we reflect on these principles, we're encouraged to step out of our comfort zones, live boldly for Christ, and make a lasting impact in our world. This teaching invites us to examine our own lives and ask: Are we living with courageous faith? Are we embracing God's wisdom or settling for cultural Christianity? Let's be inspired to pick up the torch of faith and run hard for Jesus, leaving a legacy that honors Him

Pastor Snook continues his sermon series on Living Life Backward in this sermon based on Ecclesiastes 10:1-20.

We're reminded that wisdom isn't just about intelligence or creativity, but about diligence and character. The image of dead flies in perfume vividly illustrates how small acts of foolishness can spoil a lifetime of good reputation. This calls us to examine our lives: Are there 'flies' - small sins or bad habits - that we're allowing to taint our testimony? The message urges us to be especially mindful of our speech, comparing unwise words to a serpent's venom. How often do we unleash destructive gossip or criticism without considering the consequences? Yet our words also have the power to bless and encourage. As we reflect on these truths, we're challenged to live with greater intentionality, to guard our hearts and tongues, and to love one another as Christ loved us. This is how we truly demonstrate our faith to a watching world.

We dig deep into the wisdom found in Ecclesiastes 9 in this episode! Pastor Snook invites us to consider how we can enjoy life with God as the essence of it.

On this special Gospel Sunday at FBC Glen Este, Pastor Snook digs deep into the profound story of the rich young ruler from Mark 10:17-22, a Bible story that challenges us to examine our own hearts and priorities. This encounter between Jesus and a wealthy seeker of eternal life illuminates the core of what it means to truly follow Christ.

We're reminded that outward morality and material success, while admirable, aren't enough to inherit the Kingdom of God. The young man's inability to let go of his possessions serves as a mirror for our own attachments that may be hindering our spiritual growth.

Are we, like him, holding onto something that's keeping us from fully embracing Jesus? This narrative compels us to consider what we value most and whether we're willing to surrender it all for the incomparable treasure of knowing Christ. As we reflect on this, let's ask ourselves: What is our 'one thing' that Jesus is asking us to give up? Pastor's sermon challenges us to move beyond mere religious observance to a transformative relationship with God, one that requires complete trust and surrender.

In today's sermon, Pastor Snook encourages us to think about life in reverse—keeping our end in mind so we can live wisely now. From Ecclesiastes, we learn six key principles to help us stay calm when life gets tough. Like a pilot trusting their instruments in turbulence, we should keep our focus on God’s truth during chaos. The message highlights humility, wisdom, and patience as important virtues. While many things—like death and hardships—are beyond our control, we can have peace by trusting God. With this perspective, we can enjoy the present, find joy even in hard times, and appreciate life’s simple blessings, just as Solomon taught.

In this profound exploration of wisdom (Ecclesiastes 7:14-29) Pastor Snook encourages us to seek it as diligently as we would hidden treasure.

This message urges us to trust in God's providence, even when life doesn't make sense. It's a call to embrace both the blessings that keep us happy and the burdens that keep us humble, recognizing God's balancing act in our lives. As we grapple with life's perplexities, we're reminded that wisdom gives us the strength to live with what we don't understand, releasing our need for answers into God's capable hands.

In this sermon, we're challenged to confront our mortality and live life 'backward' - with the end in mind. Pastor Snook's text for this episode is Ecclesiastes 7.

The key message revolves around the wisdom of embracing life's difficult moments as opportunities for growth. Solomon's proverbs remind us that the path of wisdom often involves choosing the harder, longer road over quick fixes and shallow pleasures. We're encouraged to value a good name over fleeting pleasures, to seek wisdom through life's challenges, and to maintain an eternal perspective.

This sermon invites us to reflect on how we're building our legacy - are we leaving behind a fragrant memory or a stench? By facing the reality of death, we're paradoxically empowered to live more fully, wisely, and generously in the present.

In this sermon, Pastor Snook preaches from Ecclesiastes 5 and encourages us toward authentic worship that transforms not just our Sundays, but every aspect of our lives.

The book of Ecclesiastes challenges us to examine our approach to God. Solomon, in his wisdom, warns against hasty words, broken promises, and superficial devotion. We're reminded that God desires our hearts, not just our lips. As we reflect on our own spiritual journey, let's ask ourselves: Are we giving God our leftovers, or are we offering Him our best?
