Erwin Lutzer

Erwin W. Lutzer (* 1941) ist ein US-amerikanischer evangelikaler Theologe, Buchautor und Radioprediger, der von 1980 bis 2016 als Hauptpastor der Moody Church in Chicago wirkte. Bekannt wurde er durch weltweite Radiosendungen und Publikationen zur Glaubenslehre, wobei seine scharfe Kulturkritik sowie ein zivilrechtliches Urteil wegen Verletzung der Privatsphäre eines früheren Mitarbeiters umstritten sind. Bibellesern vermitteln seine Texte zugängliche Schriftauslegungen und theologische Orientierung im Rahmen eines konservativ-evangelikalen Bibelverständnisses.
