One of my greatest joys in life is teaching the bible in a way that makes it real to people. There’s no greater thrill for me than seeing a person have that “aha!” moment, when something in Scripture suddenly makes sense. Even after years of teaching, I never get tired of students telling me that something I said made the bible come to life for them. That is my hope for this channel.

I have been a student and a lecturer of New Testament since 2005. I began my studies at what was then called Southern Cross College (now called Alphacrucis University College) in Sydney, Australia. I then went on to do a PhD at Macquarie University, also in Sydney. After completing my doctorate in 2012, I became a full-time lecturer at Alphacrucis, where I have taught ever since.

Apart from my teaching, I have written numerous academic articles and books. I also present papers regularly at international conferences around the world. You can see all of these at my Academia.com page. You can also email me or check out my other stuff on my socials.
