Rector’s Forum with Reese Grosfeld
Our next Rector’s Forum will take place on Sunday, May 26, 12:30pm at St. George’s Church! We are excited to welcome Reese Grosfeld, a PhD student at the Princeton Theological Seminary.
Topic: Providence and Vocation in the Theology of Karl Barth
About the Speaker: Kristoff Reese Grosfeld, ThM ’22, is a PhD student in the department of theology at Princeton Theological Seminary. His main area of interest is in the intersection of dogmatic and moral theology focusing particularly on how our doctrines of God and Christology can spur human action in the realm of the political. Because he is a Filipino American, he is interested also in the uses of doctrine and how certain aspects of our doctrine of God, such as omnipotence and providence, can be liberative for everyday Filipinos. Reese’s other research interests include Christian ethics, moral formation, Asian American theology, theology of Karl Barth, and the theology of St. Augustine of Hippo. He holds a BA in Spanish studies and theology from Fordham University, an MDiv from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, and a ThM in systematic theology from Princeton Theological Seminary.
