Wilkinson resigns from Bible seminar group

ATLANTA — Best-selling author Bruce Wilkinson has resigned from his position as president of Walk Thru the Bible.

The board of directors of the Bible-teaching seminar organization announced Wilkinson’s resignation Feb. 14.

Wilkinson, author of “The Prayer of Jabez,” will pursue “a broader mission through the medium of television and film,” the board said in a statement. He and his family will be moving to California later this year.  Walk Thru the Bible, which is based in Atlanta, hosted more than 2,500 seminars in 2001 across the country.
