Herr’s (research and resources director, Max De Pree Ctr. for Leadership at Fuller Seminary) compassionate first book explores through the lens of Christianity the pain that people experience in their professional lives, including burnout, harassment, and job loss. Drawn from her own experiences, Herr’s book delivers empathetic insights and biblical wisdom for healing and resilience. Using the story of the Israelites’ exile and return, the book offers a framework for navigating work-related challenges. The role of faith in times of suffering is emphasized to reassure readers that God is at work, especially through painful experiences, in their professional lives. The book combines personal stories, theological reflections, and practical advice. Herr’s message is clear: Work can bring disillusionment and hurt, but it also holds the potential for redemption.
VERDICT This book is a timely, uplifting resource that speaks to both the heart and mind. With a deep understanding of Scripture and descriptions about her journey, Herr expertly helps readers who want to integrate faith into their professional lives and navigate workplace challenges to reclaim a sense of purpose and hope.
