About Graham
Dr. Graham Leo is a writer, speaker, and educator based on the Gold Coast, Australia. With a Doctor of Ministry, training at Oxford, and 25 years as a K-12 school principal, Graham bridges academic theology and everyday life.
He describes himself as an “organic theologian” — not a product of the ivory tower, but someone homegrown in faith communities who studies Scripture carefully and communicates its truth to others.
