Joshua brings a rich background spanning theology, business administration, and digital engagement. He holds a Master of Letters in Systematic and Historical Theology from the University of St Andrews—where he received the Brash Scholarship from Singapore—as well as a Master of Divinity and a Master of Christian Studies from Seminari Theoloji Malaysia.
His research centers on the doctrine of atonement, with a particular focus on its historical development and theological nuances. Drawing on patristic, biblical, and Jewish sources—including the Talmud, Midrash, Mishnah, and Pseudepigrapha—he has developed a multi-layered view of atonement encompassing Christ’s incarnation, double descent, resurrection, ascension, and intercessory role in the heavenly sanctuary.
Joshua also explores biblical metaphors, especially the marriage and sexual imagery that unfolds across the canon. His work traces how the covenantal relationship between Yahweh and Israel—depicted in the Prophets and Lamentations—is transformed in the New Testament portrayal of Christ and the Church. These studies reflect his commitment to theological depth and textually grounded interpretation.
In addition, Joshua is interested in the intersection of theology, ethics, and pastoral care—particularly in issues like euthanasia and end-of-life decisions. His research aims to offer biblically rooted responses to modern bioethical challenges.
With over 30 years of professional experience, Joshua has led projects in corporate, ministry, and digital contexts. He has developed websites, managed social media and Google Ads, and provided strategic support for Christian organizations. He has also authored theological content, reviewed publications, and contributed to outreach and publishing initiatives.
Actively engaged in ministry, Joshua has taught Bible studies, joined mission trips, and co-founded a Christian organization focused on community outreach. He is fluent in English, conversant in Malay, Mandarin, and Hokkien, and has working knowledge of Biblical Hebrew and Greek. He is also independently studying Latin, French, Spanish, and Mandarin to support his academic work.
In all aspects of his vocation, Joshua integrates theological insight, practical expertise, and spiritual conviction to advance Christian formation, education, and ministry in diverse settings.
