Go Deep. Go Wide. (Finding Joy…Especially in the Storm)

Every day, when you wake up, what do you do first, before your feet even hit the floor? Do you ask yourself how you can make the world a better place or how you can make someone’s day just a little bit better? Whether it’s helping a family member, a friend, a co-worker, or a complete stranger, take it from father and survivor Dan Eilers, the best way to find joy in life is through love and service to others, especially when the going gets tough. In his words, when you spread goodwill to build happiness, you’ve got to Go Deep. Go Wide.

Tested through pivotal moments in his life transcending profound struggle—severe skin cancer, genetic disorders, untimely deaths in the family, sudden job loss—Eilers’ own philosophy will help you put grief, grace, mercy, and forgiveness all in their proper place. There may not always be a single right way to weather the storm, but Eilers offers the tools to stay constantly connected in faith and community, iron sharpening iron, so you, too, may find your way out of the darkest valleys.

Go Deep. Go Wide. delivers a positive spiritual message drawn from Christian teachings. For those troubled by hardship, seeking wisdom and moments of insight from personal experience, Eilers’ provides strategies for carrying yourself to the top of the mountain, where the air is clear and you’re empowered to navigate the rest of your journey.
