Dr. Sadiq earned his doctorate from the London School of Theology, UK. His research draws attention to the contextualization of Psalms in Punjabi language and sociolinguistic issues facing the Punjabi Christians in Pakistan. He has an ongoing interest in how language affects society’s attitude and how the contextualized Psalms may build bridges with people of other faiths in the South Asian context. Dr. Sadiq and his wife Ruth, have two children. He enjoys watching Cricket matches.
