After graduating from Oxford University, Ro spent nine years working as an investment banker in the City of London. It was during that time that he came under the expository preaching ministry of Dick Lucas at St Helen’s Bishopsgate Church, which was to have a profound impact on his life.
Over time, the importance of the gospel and the priority of preaching moved him to turn train for Christian ministry. Ro attended The Cornhill Training Course in London, studied theology at Oakhill Theological College, and did post-graduate and doctoral studies at both Cambridge University and Aberdeen University.
Subsequently he spent over 10 years in pastoral ministry in the UK, ministering in a small urban inner city church in the West Midlands, a large church in commuter-belt Surrey, and a suburban church in Bournemouth.
Ro is married to Rita and they have a daughter, Charis.
Research Interests: Pauline theology, the NT use of the OT, biblical theology, reformation exegesis.
