Solomon's Wisdom on Work and Rest

A pathway for learning how Ecclesiastes and Proverbs reshape our understanding of work, rest, ambition, and the gift of ordinary days.

3 steps · ~24 min read

Solomon does not romanticise work. He calls it toil. He also does not despise it. He says God gives the ability to enjoy it.

This pathway walks through Ecclesiastes and Proverbs to recover a view of work and rest that is honest about effort, honest about limits, and honest about God. The goal is not productivity tips. The goal is wisdom before the One who gives days under the sun.
