All is Vanity Part 2
April 1, 2025
M. aterial possessions have nothing to do with eternal happiness. If you’re looking for a perfect example of this truth, you need look no further than King Solomon. He had everything a man could want materially - and yet he reached a time in his life when he felt completely empty. Maybe that’s the station in life you’re at today? The book of Ecclesiastics is the outpouring of those feelings from the heart of Solomon.

If you were with us last time you’ll remember Ezra the Scribe has returned to Jerusalem. The temple has been rebuilt and worship has been reestablished. It’s a new beginning - and good one - but something happened that could jeopardize their success. And they needed to be on guard.

But some other things devolved because they didn’t practice what they preached. So we don’t make the same mistake - let’s join pastor Thom in Ezra chapter seven.

About Study the Word

About Pastor Thom Keller
Thom began teaching an inner-city Bible study in 1995. That love of teaching God’s word eventually led to the formation of Calvary Chapel Lebanon in October, 2001, with about 50 people meeting in an old hardware store. Our church ministry and philosophy centers on teaching God’s word chapter by chapter, verse by verse.
Prior to pastoring, Thom was president and general manager of Keller Brothers Ford, a third-generation family business that began in 1921. After 8 years of bi-vocational ministry, in 2009, Thom sold the business and became a full-time pastor.
Thom and his wife, Sue, live near Schaefferstown. Thom and Sue enjoy snow skiing, mountain biking and motorcycle rides. Thom has often said that he loves performing weddings because he loves being married!
Ted, pictured above is Sue’s brother who has lived with Thom and Sue since 2001.
“It has been an absolute joy to see the changes God is bringing about in the lives of individuals, marriages and families at Calvary Chapel. God’s word does not return void!”
Currently we have worship services Sunday morning at 8:00 AM, 9:30 AM and 11:00 AM at our church located at 740 Willow St. Please introduce yourself when you stop by!
