Eric Tonjes: Either Way, We’ll Be All Right

Either Way, We’ll Be All Right: An Honest Exploration of God in Our Grief
(NavPress, 2021)

WHO: Eric Tonjes, a pastor and the co-host of the Simply Faithful podcast.

HE SAYS: “Our tears, when we gaze through them, can transform from a veil for our eyes to a lens that brings into sharper focus the deep things of God.”

THE BIG IDEA: What does it mean to follow Jesus when everything else is giving way?

THE PROGRESSION: The first two chapters set the stage by addressing some general ideas about God and the world. The next eight chapters explore from several angles how God meets us in our grief. The final three chapters offer some practical discussions about walking though grief and then sum up the vision of God we need.

“It is a hard road, but it is walkable because he walks with us and before us.”
