As a theological educator Van Dyk is a strong proponent of theology addressing the present needs of the church. She believes, “Theology is articulating the faith of the church for each new age. When it is grounded in scripture, responsive to the needs of the church, and open to the leading of the Holy Spirit, it fulfills its task as a servant of the church. My own call to ministry is to help students see the great beauty, drama, and strength of the gospel—and then, how to express the gospel for the church today.” She has supported racial-ethnic diversity, leading the Faculty Fellow program at Western Theological Seminary, in which racial-ethnic scholars are brought into the community to teach while working on their Ph.D.
