A Dynamite Question from a Depressed Old Man | Week 23
06/04/24 • 24 min
The past few weeks, we've spent our time with a young King Solomon. His energy, drive, and wisdom have been entertaining and impressive. Here in WEEK 23, we move forward in the story to the middle age and sunset years of Solomon's life.
With his building projects complete and his borders secure, Solomon turns his incredible resources to finding enjoyment and satisfaction in life. And, he fails to find the secret until it's too late.
