The Conclusion Of The Whole Matter Volume I – Teacher’s Guide

How does a man who has everything hate life? Learn from Solomon’s failure how to serve the true and living God. Dr. Sexton shows us from Ecclesiastes how life without God is empty, regardless of our possessions. Each chapter compels us to recognize our need of God. The author, in this two-volume set, captivates our mind and brings us to the conclusion of the whole matter: we must “fear God, and keep his commandments.”

The Teacher’s Guide is a three-ring notebook containing valuable information to assist the teacher in the preparation and presentation of the Bible lesson. These notes are identical in format to the Study Guide. The page numbers on the “Teacher’s Notes” correspond to the page numbers in the Study Guide. Also included are class teaching notes and lesson aims which may be removed from the Teacher’s Guide and placed in the teacher’s Bible to assist in teaching the lesson.
