Per Ewert is the director of The Clapham Institute, Sweden’s leading Christian think tank and research institute. His PhD describes the political process which shaped Sweden into the world's arguably most secular-individualistic nation. Per is the author of seven books on the Bible, apologetics, relations, and the role of faith in society. He currently works on a post-doc study on internal secularization in free protestant denominations. He lives with his wife and four children in southern Sweden.
David Sandifer was born and raised in France, of American parents. He holds a Ph.D. in history, from the University of Cambridge (2014). He spent 20 years in pastoral ministry in the U.S. and Australia, and also worked for a Christian public advocacy organisation in Australia, where he co-launched an on-going campaign to protect children from online pornography. He currently lectures in the area of practical theology and ethics at Tyndale Theological Seminary in the Netherlands. He has a heart to see the church in Europe renewed in love for God and holiness, and to see Christian families equipped to raise counter-cultural disciples who will 'shine like stars in the universe' (Phil. 2:15).
