Unemployed: Life in the Wilderness

A Practical Guide for Job Seekers Who are Confused, Lonely, & Frustrated

[A Personal Note From Len] 

Welcome to my web page.  I appreciate your interest in my book and the jobless ministry that it supports.  For over 40 years I have shared principles from the Word of God that have been given to us for the improvement of our lives as we seek to follow Christ.

 There are certain times in the life of every person when we are confused, hurt, angry, disappointed and in need of encouragement.  I have experienced those moments in my own life.  I’ve asked God why He was allowing these kinds of stresses and trials to “put me through the wringer!” 

 The first answers were fairly obvious.  He was correcting me, disciplining me for my hard-headed disobedience, or waking me up to His leading in my life.  He also spoke of another reason; 

 In 2 Corinthians 1: 3-6 it says, “All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. For the more we suffer for Christ, the more God will shower us with his comfort through Christ. Even when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation! For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer.”   (New Living Translation)

 My prayer is that, after you look through the pages of this website, you’ll find information that might, in a small way, offer comfort to you and yours - the same comfort I’ve received at a number of crucial points in my life.   

 Blessings.
