All right, Pastor Mark Driscoll here, continuing our study of Ecclesiasties. I think this week we're in Part 10. Ecclesiasties chapter 6 versus 1 through 12 in our meaningless life study as we seek to pour some

meaning into our meaningless life.

And today's sermon title is

climb the ladder. Well, did you grow up in a game playing home?

Our family was like play sports, kids outside all day on bikes playing

woofball and football and running all over the neighborhood and

then come home at night eat dinner and watch some television.

Conversely, my wife Grace, the family that she grew up and it was largely a game-playing home.

So they didn't watch a lot of television.

They had three girls.

We had three boys and two girls, a lot of activity at our place.

Grace anyways grew up in a game playing home.

So they had a lot of board games and they pull out the board games and play together and my kids kind of pick that up.

A lot of my kids like

board games like their mom and with their mom.

And even some of my kids have invented new games.

They come up with different clever fun games.
