Augsburg Fortress

“Honest, vulnerable, practical, and pastoral, Lindberg speaks words for that experience that seems to lack words of comfort: job loss. Guiding the reader through the reality of grief, her perspective invites readers to see how God works to bring hope and new life through a difficult experience.”

Reading Jobs Lost, Faith Found feels like Lindberg walking with me, sharing her insights, offering new and comforting points of view, and reframing the experience as a valuable part of the faith journey. For anyone dealing with job loss, this book will be a cherished companion, providing many miles worth of fresh perspectives, useful tools, and quiet inspiration.”

Oh, how I wish I had this remarkable resource fifteen years ago when both my husband and I lost our jobs within months of each other. Lindberg’s wisdom and reflections would have been so healing to the devastation we felt at the time. The practical and spiritual guidance offered in this book are a gift to those struggling with the raw emotions of job loss. Lindberg helps the reader discover God’s blessings and grace by facing the challenge of joblessness. I highly recommend this as a genuinely useful book to anyone wanting to repurpose their life after job loss.

For those who find themselves in the wilderness of job loss, this book provides comfort, guidance and hope—assuring us God is with us, even when everything else we've counted on crumbles. Part practical guidebook, part devotional resource, this beautifully written book offers the wisdom of others who have walked this path before us, questions for journaling and reflection that invite us to work through the losses and opportunities that accompany this experience, and a richly researched selection of prayers and Scripture to sustain us on the way.

I recommend Jobs Lost, Faith Found to anyone encountering unemployment and looking to turn it into a meaningful time of heightened faithfulness. It offers practical tools for the ups and downs and fears encountered during this time of instability and transition. It is a hope-filled, grace-filled resource!”
