Paul Hedley Jones was born in Nigeria to missionary parents, and grew up there until returning to Australia in 1985. He graduated from Melbourne School of Theology in Australia and then from Regent College in Vancouver, Canada."Sharing God's Passion" is his first book, and he expects to publish his second (on Job/suffering) in 2014. Currently writing his doctoral dissertation under Professor R.W.L. Moberly at Durham University, Paul's research is focused on what is probably the strangest story in the Old Testament: 1 Kings 13.
