Biography

Rev. Dr. Richard L. Langston was a pioneering director who helped to start East Asia School of Theology in 1992 and has been actively involved in various leadership positions at EAST. He teaches courses in missions, spiritual warfare, and church growth. Called to serve the Lord in Asia after joining Campus Crusade for Christ (USA) in 1967, Rev. Dr. Langston and his wife, Laurel, lived in the Philippines for eight years before coming to Singapore in 1989. They have travelled to teach in many places in Asia since 1973. He is the author of a book entitled Bribery and the Bible. The Langstons are regarded as mentoring “parents” to many students at EAST − a testimony to their conviction that theological education must stress the integration of principles with practice in the application of biblical truths in people’s lives. They raised their two children in Asia and have twin grandsons and a granddaughter.
