I was once tapped to do a Bible study on Ecclesiastes. I'm rather fond of the book. Peggy Lee singing "Is That All There Is?" would be a perfect intro -- if 4 minutes weren't forever opening a Sunday School class. The "break out the booze" might have raised a few eyebrows, but if the peice had been shorter I'd have used it.

It's fun--you can read the book three different ways: purely secular, God's around somewhere, and from a New Testament perspective. But even in the New Testament era, sometimes Ecclesiastes-days come.
