Reviews
No one who lives long in this life lives without disappointment, suffering, and heartache. The world is too broken for it to be otherwise; we are too wounded for it to be otherwise. Eric Forseth has written a rare book, one born of his own experience living with the weight of debilitating sickness in the most tender relationships of his life - and yet it is also a book for Everyman and Everywoman because in our very different ways we all know this story, painfully, we all know this story. What do we do with what we know? Our truest vocation is to live into the reality of our deepest faith, our deepest hope, our deepest love, if what we believe is going to honestly form the way we live. In this unique book, Holding Together invites us, slowly by slowly, to understand both the griefs of the world more fully, but also to make our way into its surprising graces. Steven Garber, author of Visions of Vocation and Principal of The Washington Institute for Faith, Vocation & Culture Eric Forseth brings great encouragement for those who have personally faced unexpected "physical" challenges. He asks important questions about how to serve others versus just focusing on one's circumstances or infirmities. If you are looking for a countercultural approach that leads to a Christ-centered, positive attitude, the Forseth family has lived out these tenets, and now Eric shares them with you. Ed Stetzer, author of Subversive Kingdom and Billy Graham Distinguished Chair, Wheaton College
