Dear Theo is a small corner of the internet with a simple conviction: serious theology is not just for seminaries. It belongs to the church, the family dinner table, and the teenager with honest questions. My aim here is to take the deep things of God and teach them plainly, without watering them down and without dressing them up.
Who I Am
I hold a Master of Divinity, and I write from a confessional Reformed Baptist perspective, in line with the 1689 London Baptist Confession. That means you can expect the historic Protestant faith here: Scripture as the final authority, salvation by grace alone through faith alone, and a big view of the God who holds all things together.
Every week I teach a Sunday school class, and much of what appears on this site grows out of that work; the questions students actually ask, the passages we actually wrestle with, and the doctrines that actually hold up under pressure.
What You’ll Find Here
Essays on the attributes of God, discipleship, and how a Christian worldview meets the culture we live in. If you are a parent of one of my students, the For Parents page gathers everything we cover in class so you can continue the conversation at home.
Theology is not a spectator sport. The goal of every post is the same: to know God truly, and to live like it matters. I’m glad you’re here.
