Podcast appearances and mentions of Hugh Whelchel

Today, The Two Mikes welcomed Dr. Anne Bradley to our podcast to speak about a man named Hugh Whelchel, who has passed away. Dr. Bradley worked with Mr. Whelchel at the Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics in Northern Virginia. Dr. Bradley remembers Mr. Whelchel as a friend who had the unique ability to teach the theology of life, work and family; indeed, he was a man who could "bring theology to life for Christians." He spoke clearly and with a passion, Dr. Bradley explained, and "it made people want to take the time to speak more with him." Mr. Whelchel was never in a rush, and spent time answering questions as long as people had questions to ask. He told his audiences to always recall that God created each person not only in His image and likeness, but also created each person "to be something that only you can be." Mr. Whelchel, Dr. Bradley said, can truly be described as a "magnanimous" human being, who had a deep knowledge of scripture, genuine humbleness, and great skill at getting diverse groups of people to sit around the table and work through problems, ideas, and aspirations.

The Lynn and Louis Wolfson II Florida Moving Image Archives has a brief 38-second clip of George Starke Jr.'s first day at the University of Florida law school. There is NO sound, but it gives a glimpse of his first day. https://youtu.be/Re-aGl2FRh0 (You can find it here.) Sept. 15, 1958 is significant for the state of Florida, the University of Florida, AND for the city of Sanford. It was on that date that George Starke Jr. became the first Black student admitted to the University of Florida. George Starke Jr. is the son of Dr. George Starke, the first Black doctor in the city of Sanford.  Interestingly enough, Sept. 15th is an important date for both father and son. On Sept. 15, 1927, Dr.Starke opened his first office in Sanford. 31 years later, his son integrated the UF on Sept. 15. The University of Florida was the first university in the deep South to admit black students. It would another 3 to 6 years before the state universities in South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana would integrate. George Jr. had earned his undergraduate degree at Morehouse University in Atlanta, and he served 4 years in the Air Force before he was admitted to the University of Florida law school. in previous Celery City Stories, it's just been me telling the stories. For today's episode, I was honored to interview Mr. Starke, so I'm going to let the man himself do most of the talking. ------ At the end of this episode I mention that I'll include an interview with Katie Whelchel Stewart in an upcoming show. If you missed the episode about her grandfather, Hugh Whelchel, you can check it out here:https://www.celerycitystories.com/alabama-georgia-football-game-determines-1920-southern-champion/ ( "Sanford man is hero in classic 1920 Alabama-Georgia game")

If you like these Celery City Stories and you want me to keep telling them every week then please buy a cup of coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/danping (by following this link.) It was the game football fans had anticipated for weeks. Two powerhouses were set to meet in Atlanta. The crown for Southern football supremacy awaited the winner. (Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association) The University of Alabama Crimson Tide was undefeated, led by a salty defense that had allowed only 7 points through the first 8 games of the year. Their opponent: The University of Georgia Bulldogs. Georgia, too, was undefeated, and had crushed the Florida Gators the week before by a score of 56-0. Hugh Whelchel was the hero of the game, and that's the Sanford connection. Whechel's 2 blocked kicks in the Alabama game were crucial to the Bulldogs winning the game. The second one that resulted in the winning touchdown is ranked 4th in https://www.amazon.com/Greatest-Georgia-Bulldogs-Football-History/dp/1600781195 (Patrick Garbin's book “The 50 Greatest Plays In Georgia Bulldogs Football History.)” Garbin also notes that Whelchel would ultimately block 19 kicks during his career at Georgia. Whelchel was born Lumpkin County in Northeast Georgia. After graduating from the Univerity of Georgia, he moved to Sanford in 1925. According to his obituary in the April 25, 1968 issue of the Sanford Herald, Whelchel coached the Seminole High School football team in 1926 and 27. https://www.celerycitystories.com/a-good-wife-and-a-strong-martini-help-change-history/ (Red Barber, the subject of last week's Celery City Story), was one of the better players on Whelchel's 1926 team. The quarterback of those teams was Jim Spencer. Long-time Sanford residents will remember Jim Spencer's, which was a very popular restaurant here in town during the 150s, 60s an 70s. I guarantee there will be 2 or 3 Celery City Stories that feature Jim Spencer and his family. For all of his accomplishments on the gridiron, Hugh Whelchel spent most of his time as a successful farmer here in Sanford. When the State Farmer's Market opened in 1930 at French Avenue and Historic Goldsboro Avenue, Mr. Whechel was the second person to set up a stall in the facility. Harold Kastner, who's family has deep farming roots in Sanford, was the first. I don't think many people today what a big economic engine the State Farmer's Market was in Sanford for a long time. I probably need t o do a story on the market at some point. Hugh would never really stop farming, but from 1950 to 1954 he operated the Mayfair Country Club. He worked for Chase & Co. for a few years, and Hugh was also the fertilizer inspector for the state of Florida Department of Agriculture.

In his book, How Then Should we Work?, Hugh Whelchel writes, "until Christians embrace the biblical doctrine of work, they will remain ineffective." In this message we look at work and how work in and of itself is inherently good and something God has given to us to flourish and become who we were created to be. https://mtownchurch.ca/

Meaning matters. As humans, we are wired to look for meaning in our own lives and the world around us. It is remarkable that how we find that meaning in so many different ways and in so many different places. Not all places are created equal though. That's what were going to talk about today.1. Finding Your 'Why' by Robert Stacey from The Imaginative Conservative2. Art, Vocation, and Why We Hunger for Redemption Stories by Hugh Whelchel from the Institute for Faith, Work & Economics3. Is the Inability to ‘Adult’ Driving the Teen Summer Job Decline? by Annie Holmquist from Intellectual Takeout4. Like Thinking For Yourself? Think Again by Todd Rains from Intellectual Takeout5.

What You'll Hear: Hugh always remembers knowing the saving grace of Jesus Christ Worked in the environmental industry, owned a construction company, worked in the IT industry Then ran a seminary in Wash DC for 7 years before starting the Institute for Faith, Work and Economics Hugh put himself through college as a pilot with a crop dusting business, including wrecking 2 airplanes Hugh remembers "I really began to wonder, why doesn't God care what I do every day" "Martin Luther said 'the work of the milkmaid is just as important as the work of the priest'" He got a degree at seminary and did his masters thesis on Faith and Work "There's intrinsic value in the things you do everyday" They had 2 million unique visitors to the tifew.org website in 2017, have 40-50,000 people look at the blog every The 2 great lies you've been told are 1. You can be anything you want to be and 2. You can be the best in the world The parable of the talents is all about the biblical meaning of success "Everything is spiritual, there is no secular for the Christian" "All we have to do is faithfully work as hard as we can at what God's called us to do using the resources God has given us...we'll all hear 'well done good and faithful servant'" "I'm living in the covenant and the covenant has responsibilities...that's something I want to do because of my love for Christ and because of what He's done for me" "Work is not part of the curse, but work is cursed because of sin" "This side of heaven there are no perfect jobs" "Calling is a more overarching thing that really comes out of who God has made you to be", not a particular job Hebrews 12:1-2 is my life verse - "God equipped me to be a teacher, to help people to be successful" In "The Call" by Os Guiness, our primary calling is to be a disciple of Christ, but we have secondary calls where we work out our salvation in 4 buckets to Family, Church, Community and Vocation. This work serves to glorify God, serve the common good, and further God's Kingdom. Shalom is a biblical Old Testament concept of flourishing.  We are to subdue the earth and fill it with God's images, but also to bring flourishing to God's creation The best thing you can do to share the Gospel is to do your job well Suggestions for maximizing your commute: listen to something other than the radio, it's designed to drag you down.  Listen to scripture.  Listen to positive podcasts.  Listen to books from Audible.com. "We don't realize the incredible opportunity that God has given us...to change the world through our work" "Almost every single good thing that's been done in the last 2000 years has been done by Christians...in the last 100 years we in the church have completely forgotten about that" Learn more at www.tifwe.org

We have a lot to talk about today, and I think that one thing that is particularly striking to me is how we never seem to listen. I've always found that it never hurts to listen to someone else. I may not accept what they say, and I often times will reject the ideas they have put forth, but listening never hurts, and it often helps. I'm going to try to demonstrate that concept through a rather random assortment of articles in this podcast.1. U.S. Fertility Rate Fell to a Record Low, for a Second Straight Year by Sabrina Tavernise from the New York Times2. Do Millennials Really Love Socialism? by Stephen Walters from Intellectual Takeout3.

There are some pretty amazing trends in our world today, and some of them really blow my mind. Often times, there is one way that makes an awful lot of sense, but everyone seems to want to move in the other direction. That is kind of what we're going to take a look at today. Like I wrote about on the blog this week, as Christians, we sometimes have to stand against culture. 1.

Well, we are here on Christmas Eve Eve, and what else should I be talking about other than the big day itself? We are at that weird intersection between a secular world that loves Christmas and a Christian world that actually has a reason for loving Christmas. That's what were talking about today. 1.

According to Gallup, a “staggering” 87% of employees worldwide are unhappy with their work. In America, the number is 70% – which, although better, is still bad. Even worse, these numbers have remained fairly steady over the past 16 years that Gallup has measured them, leading Gallup to call the situation “an employee engagement crisis.” So what’s wrong, and is it possible for employees to gain a sense of higher purpose and genuine satisfaction from their work, regardless of circumstances? Tonight we’re joined by Hugh Whelchel, a former high-tech executive; current Executive Director at The Institute of Faith, Work, and Economics; and author of the book How Then Should We Work? Hugh joins us to talk about how focusing on the true meaning of our work, and working to contribute to the flourishing of society, leads to genuine fulfillment and satisfaction.

The founder of The Institute of Faith, Work and Economics talks about the transformative power of Biblical stewardship, what exactly it means to be successful in the workplace in a Biblical sense, and turning the seemingly mundane into Kingdom work.     The post Hugh Whelchel and Your Workplace Talent appeared first on iWork4Him Podcast.
