The New Testament Story

religion, spirituality, christianity, history, society, culture, philosophy · EN

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.
