Summary
As the president of Regent College, Dr. Walter C. Wright welcomed theological students from around the world for 12 years. At the closing of each academic year he would then see those same students off to the rest of their lives following their formative time at Regent. Collected here are Dr. Wright's introductory and closing chapel talks that explore the difficulties associated with transitioning to the piaces where God is calling us to be. These encouraging expositions from Scripture will speak to anyone who is pulling up roots and moving on to follow God's leading at Regent College or elsewhere, or preparing for "life after Regent" after completing their theological studies.
