Have you thought about self-publishing your essays, in the meantime? I recall, that Albert Einstein also did not find a teaching position he looked for after graduating, and took at clerk's job at the us patent office. it gave him monotony, which strangely helped him come up with extraordinary creative ideas, including his theory of relativity.

Her take is that the church as an institution is afraid of talented people as they tend to be change agents, so of course you are not going to get a job until you find a place not is not afraid of change.
