Joy at the End of the Tether: The Inscrutable Wisdom of Ecclesiastes ‘In this lively reading of Ecclesiastes, Doug Wilson reveals its powerful lessons of vanity, joy, celebration, and the sovereignty of God. This is a great book, so we can’t figure out why it hasn’t sold better–especially since it was Doug’s favorite to write. Most Christians view the book of Ecclesiastes as an enigma, a puzzle from which we might draw a few aphorisms but little else. Douglas Wilson’s fresh, lucid treatment of this wonderful book enables us to see that its message is not a confused riddle but an incisive indictment of the wisdom of this world. ’ –Steve Wilkins, pastor of Auburn Avenue Presbyterian Church, Louisiana
