The Tim Ahlman Podcast

Why the Church Struggles to Help the Unemployed


Listen Later

Unemployment is one of the most disorienting, painful seasons a person can face—yet the church often overlooks it. In this episode, Tim Ahlman sits down with Dale Kreienkamp, author of "How Long, Lord, How Long?", to talk about the emotional and spiritual toll of losing a job, why many believers suffer in silence, and how congregations can be a lifeline in these moments.

Dale shares his own unexpected job loss stories, the lies we believe during unemployment, and practical ways pastors and church members can walk alongside those in transition. This isn’t just about finding the next job—it’s about restoring dignity, hope, and trust in God’s provision.

Whether you’ve been through job loss yourself or want to better care for others in your church, this conversation will open your eyes to a ministry opportunity hiding in plain sight.
