Summer Programs2012

Blue skies, ocean, mountains—all witnessing to the perfection of God’s creation. Imagine immersing yourself in deep, worshipful learning. If summer is the season of growth and nourishment in the natural world, then summer at Regent is the season for rich, Spirit-filled restoration in a transformative community.

We offer the most extensive theological Summer Programs in the world, with one- and two-week courses designed for those with no prior theological education. 

forty courses taught by forty-three world-class faculty

Our course topics this summer range from ministry, social engagement, and interpretation of the Bible, to the spiritual practice of contemplative reading, the vocation of the artist, and the challenge of living a Christian life in the secular marketplace.

And while Regent is as academic as you want to make it, it is invariably transformational. You’ll grow spiritually and personally, especially in the smaller, intimate class sizes of summer term.

  • learning travel tour package

    For all of you out-of-towners, this deal is for you! This one of a kind learning experience includes a summer course at Regent, full accommodation, Vancouver and Whistler travel excursions, and behind-the-scenes access to Regent College faculty. We’ve organized all the details so you don’t have to. And for less than the cost of arranging it all on your own.

  • Enjoy Vancouver

    While there may be a season for every activity under the heavens, summer is indisputably the best time of year to visit Vancouver. Sunny days are ceaseless and outdoor activities are boundless. We've included a number of suggestions for you.

  • attend our free evening public lectures

    The only reason to stay inside on a gorgeous summer evening is to attend a free evening public lecture. This is your ideal chance to hear many of the faculty speak on diverse topics relevant to our lives as Christians today. All lectures start at 8 pm in the Chapel. They fill up quickly, so arrive early! Can’t make a lecture? Watch it live, or download the audio recording afterwards.

  • sign up for a conference

    Don’t miss our two conferences: the annual Pastors’ Conference, Overflow—Spiritual Rhythms and Practices that Draw from Christ’s Fullness (May 1–4, 2012) , and a conference on the timely topic of aging, The Next Great Challenge: Thinking Together about Aging (May 18–19, 2012).

  • Join us for chapel, community lunches & other activities

    We joke that summer term is like summer camp for adults. Our Chapel services with faculty and fellow students are followed by catered lunches for the best price on campus. Visit our Activities Page to see what else is happening around Regent College during the summer.
