Welcome
- G'day!
• I teach in practical theology at Whitley College, University of Melbourne. • I am a husband, a father, and a lover of food and life at the table. • I read too much. • I live in the heart of Melbourne, a chaotic yet gracious network of neighbourhoods for which I have the deepest affection. • I am an enthusiastic advocate for the city and its potential to enrich our lives. • I am a Christian committed to discerning and responding to the presence of God in daily life.

Quotable
- Zadie Smith
"To speak personally, the very reason I write is so that I might not sleepwalk through my entire life." - Joan Didion
"I write entirely to find out what I’m thinking, what I’m looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear." - Leander Keck
"To live with the Bible is more like living with a multi-generational, extended family than with a crotchety grandfather who keeps telling us of the good old days." - Patrick Henry
"The borders between reading and writing and living are fluid. I do not take time out from life to write, nor do I take time out from life to read. When I quote somebody, I'm not hiding. I'm introducing you to one of my conversation partners."
