Max was born in Sri Lanka, but moved to Australia with his parents as a refugee when he was just one year old.

Max is passionate about the power and relevance of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in transforming hearts and minds amidst a materially prosperous but spiritually unsatisfied world. His research interests lie at the intersection of faith, the role of government, and Christian morality. His extensive work in this field has led to numerous invitations to speak worldwide, including churches, universities, and debates in Australia, Cambodia, the UK, and Belgium.
