About this blog and its author

And Ye Shall Find is a blog about faith and reason. Writing from a Christian point of view, I explore questions about religion and science, religion and contemporary culture, spirituality and day-to-day lived religion. At the heart of this blog lies the spirit of constantly questioning our knowledge and ourselves, or as St Matthew quoted Christ saying: "Seek, and ye shall find."

In the same spirit I am open to any challenges and additions to my arguments in any comments.

I am of Russian and Dutch descent, grew up in the Netherlands and have lived in London since 2017. I recently finished a BA History degree at UCL, and intend to pursue further academic study in the field of history and philosophy of science at the University of Cambridge. Outside study I am an amateur organist, and have worked as a piano teacher and volunteered for various charities.
