Fr. Kevin Grove is an Associate Professor of Theology and Director of the Master of Divinity program at the University of Notre Dame, affiliated with the College of Arts and Letters. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge. His research focuses on memory, Christology, St. Augustine, and the theological writings of Basil Moreau. His work bridges historical theology, phenomenology, and contemporary religious art. Recent publications include Augustine on Memory (2021) and co-editing Art, Desire, and God (2023). His scholarship explores intersections between theological concepts and cultural expressions, such as prayer, liturgy, and social critique through art.

Professionally, Grove combines academia with pastoral ministry, serving as an assistant faculty chaplain and chaplain to undergraduates in Dunne Hall. He previously held postdoctoral fellowships at L’Institut Catholique in Paris and the Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study. His interdisciplinary approach reflects a commitment to integrating theological rigor with pastoral engagement.
