The main drawback to this book is that its way too detailed and would be a difficult book to read cover to cover. However this book has more resources on resumes, cover letters, interviews, networking, and such than any other career book that I have. The content is far easier to understand and better presented than What Color is your Parachute, and besides it has a christian foundation which makes a huge difference. But a better read would be 48 days to the work you love.

"The Christian's Career Journey addresses the business side of the job acquisition process, the personal issues and the spiritual issues. If you are a Christian and you are trying to find your place in your work life, this book will get you there."I recently used information and ideas from Susan's book at a Youth For Christ Conference in Ocean City, Maryland where more than 3,800 high school students gathered and the response to the ideas and techniques Susan suggests were very well received by students and Youth Leaders alike.The book is a staple in my career coaching tools as I work with professionals, executives, technical workers and scientists. It is truely an inspiring and insightful book.Steve Gallison

Some have claimed that there is too much information in these books, but I disagree. It is an excellent source for the job seeker. I have had no success in actually contacting the author at her business, but I still hold out hope....

The Christian's Career Journey is a blessing for any Christian job seeker. Today's challenges and pressures to create a fulfilling career and earn a decent living can seem impossible. Yet God has a perfect plan for each of us, and He delights in doing the impossible if we only ask for his help, obey his will, and persevere through the career journey with prayer and scripturally based Godly wisdom. This book includes all the resources you need to fuel your job search, ignite your faith, and find real fulfillment by partnering with the ultimate career coach--God. He has big plans for you--to prosper you and use you in the workforce, and this book lights the way! If I could, I would give this book ten stars! Yes, it's that good -- you'll be glad you bought it!Robyn Feldberg, NCRW, CCCMC"The Abundant Success Career Coach"Abundant Success Career Services

I purchased this book after I found out my job was eliminated and I would be starting a job search after 15 years. Needless to say, things have changed since I last looked for a job and this book is a tremendous resource for walking you through the entire process, from managing job loss, to the nuts and bolts of resumes and interviews, to how to research a company and how to negotiate a salary. I started reading it from the beginning, and then as I started getting job leads, skipped around to use the parts I needed at the moment. Excellent, excellent resource. Buy this book if you are looking for a job or even if you just want to learn more about job fulfillment in your present job. The interweaving of scripture is especially relevant, encouraging, and affirming that God indeed cares about this aspect of our lives.

I bought this book while I was right in the heart of changing over jobs and looking for Gods help and grace throught he whole procedure. I didn't read through the whole book, it was wordy and I lost focus once I was offered a new job and accepted it, so I didn't really NEED the book any more. But what I did read had good use of scripture and was a good source of guidance through the process.

The Christian's Career Journey is an excellent resource for finding the job God designed for you. It has strong Christian references along with practical to-do strategies that fit into a successful job search program. We are usisng this book as a study at our church and it is relevant and needed in these changing times. Thank you, Susan Whitcomb for investing your time and talents into writing this wonderfully helpful book!

I had the opportunity to meet Susan in the Spring of 2008 when she gave a presentation to a group of Job Group leaders in the Twin Cities.The book gives a great overview of the "nuts & bolts" of job search. That by itself would warrant 5 stars. She also gives a spiritual "why" to use as a basis for this opportunity for what I like to call - "BLIP" - Big Life Impovement Project. 5 stars for that part too,So I guess I'm giving the book 10 stars!Her resume book is also excellent. (It mentions a friend of mine).
