Speakers

Alanzo Paul

Alanzo has theological degrees from Oxford and the University of Toronto. He constantly aims to use his training to impact people on a personal level, particularly the younger generations. Alanzo leads OCCA’s Reboot Team which serves to engage the youth and challenges them to join in the larger conversation on the intersection of faith and reason.

Qualifying as a doctor in 2003, Ben’s career spans full-time hospital work to a formative year at the OCCA and the University of Oxford studying Theology and Apologetics. His studies concentrate on the tensions of medical ethics, faith and sexuality, and the interplay between psychology and gender identity.
