Heidi Baker

Die 1959 geborene US-amerikanische Theologin und Missionarin Heidi Baker gründete das Hilfswerk Iris Global und wirkt seit 1995 vor allem im humanitären und kirchlichen Dienst in Mosambik. Sie steht für die Hingabe an Notleidende und eine stark übernatürlich geprägte Spiritualität, stößt jedoch mit Berichten über Wunder sowie ekstatischen Praktiken auf anhaltende theologische Kritik. Bibellesern führt ihr Wirken die Spannung zwischen radikaler gelebter Nächstenliebe und umstrittenen charismatischen Frömmigkeitsformen vor Augen.
