Biography

In his teenage years, Bird was an atheist who saw Christianity, "as a way of oppressing people, a purely human construct.” After becoming a Christian, he was a Baptist, after which a Presbyterian, and (most recently) an Anglican.[3] He has recently been called by the ecumenical media platform Eternity a "heavy hitter" in the world of New Testament scholarship and Jesus's divinity.[4]

Bird is Vice Principal and Lecturer in Theology and New Testament at Ridley College, having previously taught at Brisbane School of Theology and Highland Theological College.[5] He studied at Malyon College and the University of Queensland.[5] He is also Distinguished Research Professor of Theology at Houston Baptist University.[6]

Bird has written a number of books, including The New Testament in Its World (2019, with N. T. Wright), Evangelical Theology: A Biblical and Systematic Introduction (2013) and The Gospel of the Lord: How the Early Church Wrote the Story of Jesus (2014). The Gospel of the Lord won the Biblical Studies section of the 2015 Christianity Today Book Awards.[7] Bird is also the author of a fantasy novel titled Iskandar: And the Immortal King of Iona.[8]

Bird is a member of the Evangelical Theological Society, Society of Biblical Literature, and Studiorum Novi Testamenti Societas.[5]

In November 2015 he was ordained as a priest in the Anglican Church of Australia.[9]
