Welcome to my website and blog!

I’m an ordained minister currently earning a Ph.D in Philosophical Theology at Calvin Seminary. My research interests range from the relationship between theology and philosophy, theology proper, and neo-Calvinism to the Christian social ethics, vocation, and human sexuality. My purpose with the following blog is to promote critical reflection on modern issues in theology, hoping it sparks stimulating conversations.

I am anchored in the Dutch-Reformed faith, embracing the theological tradition of John Calvin, Abraham Kuyper, and Herman Bavinck. This site reflects my opinions and does not necessarily represent the official views of either my congregation/classis or any other professional organization with which I am affiliated.

Feel free to visit some of my blog’s sections where I discuss topics such as financial stewardship, gender and sexuality, leadership, neocalvinism, pastoral care, the church, theology, and work and vocation.

Happy reading!

I. D’Oleo
