Greg Gilbert:

Like many congregations around the country, we have had many of our people this year struggling through unemployment. Included among those is one of our elders, who has been unemployed for nearly a year now. Over the past twelve months, I’ve seen this brother hurt, I’ve seen him get excited about potential jobs and then have his hopes dashed when the job didn’t come through. I’ve seen him cry when the struggle got simply exhausting. But I have also watched this brother continue to trust in God, and through it all walk alongside others who are navigating that same hard road. Even as he is shouldering his own load, he is helping others to shoulder theirs, too. That has been and continues to be a deep and beneficial ministry.

A few weeks ago, this dear friend and brother shared with the congregation ten things he had learned from his unemployment.

You can read points 1-5, then 6-10.
