Description
In a broken world, our thirst for wholeness is deeper than our thirst for knowledge. It is this concern for wholeness that has been the source of the Regent emphasis on spirituality, community, and integration. In light of this, James Houston reflects on the challenges Christians will face in light of the vast changes in society (including changes in the workforce and the growing disparity between the rich and the poor) since the founding of Regent College. This lecture is also available as part of the course The Christian Life.
