Ever feel like you’re walking on eggshells with your faith at work?
Like you want to lead with truth — but your crew doesn’t want to hear it?
Or worse… you’re not even sure where you stand anymore?

This episode is for every plumber who's caught between the pressure of the job and the pull of the Gospel.

We’re diving deep into what it looks like to:

• Lead a team that doesn’t believe (yet)

• Be bold in your faith without being “that guy”

• Live out the Gospel when the culture around you says keep it quiet

Real talk. Real struggle. Real solutions.
Because if Jesus changed your life, the job site should look different too.

Whether you're the only believer on your crew or you're still figuring it out — this episode will light a fire in your spirit and give you the words (and the courage) to lead by example.

Are your numbers telling a story you’re proud of — or one you’re ignoring?

In this power-packed episode of The Plumbing Standards, Dalton Lessen breaks down the three KPIs every faith-driven plumber and business owner must track to succeed:

• Real-life examples of what’s working (and what’s not)

• A strategy to help underperforming techs grow in skill and confidence

You did everything right.
You showed up on time. You gave them your best. You even prayed before you walked in…

“You’re awesome… but I’m going with someone else.”

Good morning and happy Friday! It’s Dalton with The Plumbing Standards Podcast, and today’s devotional is called "The Fiery Furnace."

Our scripture for today is Revelation 2:10 – "Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life."

Just like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego refused to bow to the golden idol, we, too, face fiery trials in life—whether it’s work stress, personal struggles, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s pressures. But remember this: there’s a fourth man in the fire.

I’ve been there. From battling through court issues to maintaining a normal work life, I know the weight of it all. But Jesus was with me, and He is with you too. Whatever you're going through today, you are not alone.

Join me as we talk about standing firm in faith, finding strength in the storm, and remembering that no fire is too hot for God to walk through with us. We’ll end with a prayer to lift up our struggles and place them in God’s hands.

Don’t give up—He’s in the fire with you!

Hey everyone, it's Dalton with The Plumbing Standards Podcast! Before I dive into a big water softener install today, I want to take a moment to get our minds and hearts right with a devotional.

Today's episode is titled "Who Will Go?", based on Romans 10:14 – "How can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?"

Jesus calls us to share the Gospel, not just in distant lands, but right where we are. As plumbers, we step into people’s homes daily, and how we treat them speaks volumes about Christ in our lives. It’s not about preaching at every customer—it’s about living in a way that reflects Jesus.

The world is broken, full of issues that no man can truly fix. But while we can solve plumbing problems, only Jesus can fix the eternal soul.

Stick around for a heartfelt prayer and encouragement to go into the world—whether that’s through plumbing, customer service, or simply being a light where you are.

It’s pipe-fixing season, but more importantly, it’s soul-saving season.

Tune in, be encouraged, and remember: Pray, Plumb, Praise.
