Everybody feels alone sometimes, especially when unexpected circumstances arise. Chaplains are a way for your company or organization to show its employees that they are not alone by building caring relationships over time! Chaplains provide one-on-one, grassroots ministry to employees that may never have set foot in a church before. Whether it is support through a crisis like suicide, family loss, illness, or financial distress, or a celebration like a new marriage, baby, or promotion. Whatever the life situation, chaplains are able to offer the power of presence – God’s presence!

Retirement isn’t in the Bible. True story! We were never meant to work for 30 years and then go on a 30-year vacation. Instead, God’s intention is that we would have a purpose throughout our entire life. In other words, retirement isn’t VACATION; it’s a JOB CHANGE. In this bonus interview with our personal mentor, Bob Spence, we talk about intentional retirement, ministering in the second half of life, and cultivating a mission, vision, purpose, and core values.

Skip Stanton, the owner of Aqua Plumbing and Air, has found great peace amid COVID-19 because of one simple thing: his faith. As the leader of over 150 employees and thousands of customers, Skip knows that the real enemy of peace during uncertain times is fear of the future. And boy, are there a lot of people dealing with fear in today’s world and marketplace! Tune in to hear how Skip uses transparent leadership, communication, and prayer to minister to his employees in the midst of a global pandemic.

One of Skip’s undeniable talents is communication. Even before 2020 hit, he firmly believed that communicating openly and having a transparent leadership style led to a culture of trust in his business. And it has held true with the employees of Aqua. Don’t get us wrong, it’s been a tough season for everyone, and his staff has been affected, but Skip has worked hard to push back the spirit of fear in favor of one of faith. 

How you may ask?

Well, Skip believes that as a follower of Christ and as the leader of a company, he has the opportunity to come to work each day as a beacon of peace to those around him. To be sure he is in the right head and heart space, he spends his mornings in prayer, is involved in his local church, and attends a local C12 group that gives him training and support in being a strong Christian Business Leader. And although Skip would love to minister to all 180 of his employees individually, he knows that that isn’t exactly feasible, so he has an on-staff chaplain to help minister to them and their families.

Remember, where there is faith, there is NO FEAR!

Is there ever such a thing as a bad year? Will 2020 go down in history as one we all want to forget? Does God just sometimes get it wrong? 2020 was a year, the beginning of another decade and the 20th anniversary of a new century but was it all bad? Notably it was horrible for those who have been sick from Covid or impacted by joblessness by industries being shut down from governments but when God gives us lemons, do we make lemonade or just chuck it at someone. This year most of us just wanted to chuck it at someone. Martha and I end this year with the final iWork4Him podcast of the year celebrating, contemplating and casting a vision for 2021 – a year of promise.

In light of Covid 19, was this pandemic and its disastrous economic times a shot across the bow. A warning from God about what is to come?  Why are churches still shut down in almost every state of the country yet Walmart, Lowes and Home Depot are crowded? How will this play out the rest of the year? Where do the lost turn in times like this for truth?

We’re speaking with Tony Dale with Sedera Health about where the world is at today, how we as Jesus followers in our workplace should be reacting and how we should be looking to biblical kingdom solutions for aiding this economy in recovery.

We had the pleasure of having Jamie Vrinios share her faith story of going from utter poverty to the highest levels in a national MLM organization. Check out today’s podcast to hear what the Lord is laying on her heart now as she faces her halftime and seeks Him to find “what’s next”.

Jamie was raised in the Church but felt she didn’t understand what God’s grace was really about. By 21-years-old she found herself divorced, with two children under the age of two, and on government assistance. Yet from this dark place, God led her step by step, first to himself and then to a place of abundance despite difficulties.
