David Platt

David Platt (* 1978) ist ein US-amerikanischer baptistischer Theologe, Pastor und Autor, der die McLean Bible Church leitet und zuvor Präsident des International Mission Board war. Bekannt wurde er vor allem durch sein Buch „Radical“, in dem er für weltweite Mission eintritt und ein bequemes, materialistisches Wohlstandschristentum scharf kritisiert. Während er in den USA durch innergemeindliche Konflikte und politische Polarisierung in die Kritik geriet, fordert er Bibelleser heute zu einer schriftorientierten, opferbereiten Nachfolge Jesu heraus.
