Selected Verses in Ecclesiastes
Living on the Ragged Edge is a study of the book of Ecclesiastes, and it’s for folks who live in the trenches—down there where it’s dark and dirty and full of responsibility, where the grit of reality mixed with the grind of accountability holds people’s feet to the fire.
