On Thursday, February 16, 2012, Executive Director Hugh Whelchel spoke to students at Campbell University on Faith, Work, and Calling and how to live a life of real significance. Whelchel spoke about the concept of “reweaving shalom” and “how to avoid a quarter-life crisis.”

The mission of Campbell University is

“to graduate students with exemplary academic and professional skills who are prepared for purposeful lives and meaningful service. The University is informed and inspired by its Baptist heritage and three basic theological and biblical presuppositions: learning is appointed and conserved by God as essential to the fulfillment of human destiny; in Christ all things consist and find ultimate unity; and the Kingdom of God in this world is rooted and grounded in Christian community. The University embraces the conviction that there is no conflict between the life of faith and the life of inquiry.” Read more.
