“Like all Alabaster Bible books, my copy of the book (that was complimentary through Alabaster's Influencer Program) is absolutely stunning! I love the simplicity and beauty of all of the photos that correlate so beautifully with the scriptures. So much time and thought and love and detail is poured into these pages and you can feel the moment you open the cover! I would recommend this book to everyone I know and it would make a wonderful gift!”

“Even better than I anticipated! The book itself was in perfect shape and the pictures as always are beautiful. These bibles are beautiful and so thoughtfully crafted; you can tell how much detail was put into each page. The photography is gorgeous as well! Makes for a perfect gift. We all desire meaning in our life. Often that search takes us along winding, up-and-down paths filled with bursts of satisfaction that shine bright for a time but eventually fade. In one sense, it’s satisfying to see that experience echoed throughout Ecclesiastes. An appreciation for our common humanity emerges from reading its pages. We relate to the journey of Solomon because, for so many of us, it is our own. When we attempt to find meaning in the pursuit of pleasure, the commitment to a job, or through plumbing intellectual depths, we all eventually find in each of these pursuits a dead end. Ecclesiastes shows us a man who lived through this process and came out on the other side with a wiser, more seasoned perspective. When we’re surrounded by the temptation to proclaim life’s ultimate emptiness, we can find in Ecclesiastes a vision tempered by experience and ultimately seen through divinely colored lenses. Life is destined to remain unsatisfying apart from our recognition of God’s intervention. It only remains to be seen whether or not we will place our trust in His sure and able hands. Have you struggled with misplaced pursuits in life? Does your life lack the meaning and purpose you desire? Hear the words of Solomon that they might encourage you to place your trust solely in the Lord.”

“The message of Ecclesiastes is that the course of life to be pursued is a God-centered life. The pleasures of life are not intrinsically fulfilling and cannot offer lasting satisfaction, but they can be enjoyed as gifts from God.
"When times are good, be happy;
but when times are bad, consider this:
God has made the one
as well as the other.
Therefore, no one can discover
anything about their future."
-Ecclesiastes 7:14
This book is a gift. And with the beautiful images combined, serves a visualization for the reader to hold on to and keep these Words close to home.”
