Character Education

Hall Urban
Hal Urban's message is about one thing: GOOD CHARACTER. His teaching, writing, and speaking are about what he calls old-fashioned goodness – wisdom and virtues that have been around for thousands of years. There are no secrets and there’s no quick and easy way to become successful in life. It happens when we strive to do the right thing and commit ourselves to continued learning and personal growth.
