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.

On a windy day in Kitty Hawk, N.C. in 1903, the Wright Brothers attempt to make history as they prepare the "Flyer" for the world's first engine-powered flight.
The stirring story of the Wright brothers, plus a colorful supporting cast of high-flyers during the baby-step era of aviation, (is) entertainingly presented--warts and all."--"Kirkus Reviews.
There is something old-fashioned and sage-like in Walter Howard's poetic voice. I can imagine him reading from a mountaintop-- with the raging elements a backdrop to his words. Howard is a learned man-- and has been an academic for many years-- but his poetry is in the tradition of a true romantic. He uses nature and emotion to find spiritual truth. He embraces beauty-- with all its allure, but is not afraid to reveal its frightening and dark side as well. Howard uses ample doses of levity to pull the fly down on our most cherished traditions and notions, but in the same token he shows a deep respect and affinity for all the things this world has to offer." - Doug Holder, Publisher of Ibbetson Street Press
