Podcasts about character carved

In March of 2019, we had the privilege of Pat Williams joining the Tim DeMoss Show for the full hour. At the time, he had just released a new book (something he'd done 100+ times in his life :)) entitled Character Carved in Stone: The 12 Core Values of West Point That Build Leaders And Produce Success.In light of Mr. Williams' passing yesterday, on the program today (4pm-5pm) we feature much of that interview, covering ground from his days with the Phillies and 76ers (and in basketball in general), his appreciation for the Greater Philadelphia area (having grown up in Wilmington DE), certainly about leadership, and the biggest decision of his life which took place in February 1968--deciding to follow Jesus Christ. Mr. Williams shares, "The first thing that hit me as a new Christian was I'm going to take my hands off my life and let the Lord lead through all of this. I was tired of trying to promote myself and climb the ladder. So I just relaxed and said, 'Lord, I'm in your hands.'" Several months later, he received a call from Dr. Jack Ramsay (then the 76ers GM and about to move into the team's head coaching position) asking Mr. Williams to run the team's front office, opening what turned into 50+ years in the NBA and a truly incredible life of friendships, accomplishments, ministry and service.Pat tells the story about that call from Dr. Ramsay, plus others involving Moses Malone, Coach K, Dick Vermeil, Fergie Jenkins, Pistol Pete Maravich, Wilt Chamberlain and many more.Find out more about Pat's life, work and legacy at www.patwilliams.com.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We have the pleasure of sharing a conversation I had with basketball hall of famer, co-founder of the NBA’s Orlando Magic, and author of over 100 books. Pat’s latest book, Character Carved in Stone, is about highlighting the values carved in stone benches at the United States Military Academy at West Point.

I've heard it said that Character is "who you are and what you do when nobody is looking." When it comes to our kids, I think character-building has a lot to do with the quality of people that they're surrounded with. I also believe that who and what our kids are regularly being entertained by can affect their character as well. But of course, there's no better model and teacher of character than parents. But that door swings both ways. Your kids are gonna learn from you, for good or for ill, or a little bit of both. Today we talk more on character with Mr. Pat Williams. Pat Williams is senior vice president of the NBA's Orlando Magic. He has more than 50 years of professional sports experience, has written more than 100 books, including the popular Coach Wooden, Coach Wooden's Greatest Secret, and Character Carved in Stone. The 12 Words of Character Building Mr. Pat William's book, Character Carved in Stone, was inspired by his trip to West Point. Here he discovered 12 benches, each with a word inscribed on the end of the bench. These benches were a gift from a graduating class on their 50th anniversary. They wished to leave and instill these important words into the lives of those at West Point. Each word had been found to be critical in their lives in WWII or Korea as military leaders. These 12 character traits transition to every one of us, regardless of our field. Whether we are leading in our homes, churches, schools, places of business, etc. these 12 principles are absolutely mandatory if we are going to be fully effective. Many believe that if you discipline your child you don't love your child. But really that's simply not true. They are not polar opposites. Discipline is a component of love. We use the analogy quite often that love is like a car battery. You have the positive (warm and fuzzy) and the negative (tough love) and without both poles, it does not work. As parents, we need to set the expectations for character and for our child's future. When a child turns 18, will they go into the workforce? To college? To the military? Building character also includes helping your child develop into a responsible and capable adult. Have the conversation early about their coming of age and what that looks like. No, they won't sit at home and play video games. They will be a legal adult and be required to start their own lives. Don't wait until they're 18 to spring that on them! One of the words on the benches was integrity. Can we teach our kids integrity without the moral component described in Scripture? Integrity comes from the root word integer which means 1. A leader or a person of integrity is consistent in their life. The walk and the talk match. Episode Highlights: How is discipline a component of character building? How can we set our children up to be successful independent adults? Can we teach integrity outside of Scripture? Picture via: Pixabay
