Where There is Faith, There is No Fear
09-24-21 - New Podcast Episode Alert2.png

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!

Workplace Chaplaincy

In the United States there is an enormous amount of money invested in workplace health benefits but there is a gap: we don’t address people’s spiritual wellbeing. Chaplaincy is like a workplace health benefit for the mind and spirit. 

Our focus at this past year’s FCCI Conference, was ministries that offer chaplaincy services. Tune in today as we talk with Larry Griffith from Corporate Chaplains along with Marketplace Chaplains CEO, Doug Fagerstrom, about how true ministry in the workplace can change lives and souls and hearts. 

Doug Fagerstrom is a Contributor to Chapter 11 of the iRetire4Him Field Manual, and Jeff Brown with Corporate Chaplains is a Contributor to Chapter 12 of the iRetire4Him Field Manual
