Dr. Flett explores theology through cross-cultural lenses, drawing from fieldwork in Germany, Canada, India, Tunisia, England, Brazil, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago. His research emphasizes contextual theology, theological anthropology, and the intersection of faith with societal structures like poverty and hospitality.

His publications span interdisciplinary theological reflection, with a focus on Caribbean and Latin American contexts. Key themes include the Trinity as a framework for cultural analysis, ethical engagement with religious diversity, and the role of the Holy Spirit in fostering inclusivity.

Dr. Flett contributes to Eastern University's academic community through teaching in the M.A. in Theological and Cultural Anthropology program, funded by The John Templeton Foundation, and courses like Theology of Poverty for development-focused graduate programs.
