A celebration of study for graduates

Graduation is a landmark moment for Regents Theological College students. After their ceremony at Worcester Cathedral in November, the college’s Peter Hutchinson asked five graduates to share their stories.

On graduation day, students are officially recognised for everything they have achieved and we gather with their families and friends to celebrate their time studying with us.

Some joined us straight from A-levels, others with degrees they had already taken, but all are from different church backgrounds and experiences. In many ways they are on loan to us from God.

In the two or three years they spend studying at Regents we are here to guide them in the giftings they bring and into the new ones they will discover – through training, a deeper understanding of theology and sharing discipleship together.

“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” (Proverbs 27:17) Regents is a community of disciples. We listen to God, to Scripture and to each other.

It is in those ‘spaces’ by the grace of God that personal transformation begins and our deeper understanding of calling takes place.

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3: 16-17)
