With Those Who Weep

At best, society is indifferent to crying. At worst, it chastises and punishes it.

But what if there is a third way—an option that beckons us into Christlikeness and offers us consolation from God our Father? With Those Who Weep: A Theology of Tears extends an invitation to explore how our tears form us and our sorrows catechize us. God allows us to exercise hope in our weeping, which gives purpose to our tears. Therefore, we embrace our tears as a gift.

In a culture of harder, better, faster, stronger, S.A. Morrison asks us to pause and consider if the way of Christ might actually be softer, lower, slower, and weaker.
