Charles Sheldon

    26. Februar 1857 – 24. Februar 1946

    Charles Monroe Sheldon war ein amerikanischer Geistlicher und eine Schlüsselfigur der Sozialen Evangeliums-Bewegung. Sein einflussreicher Roman führte das Leitprinzip „Was würde Jesus tun?“ ein und formulierte einen einzigartigen Ansatz zur christlichen Theologie. Diese Philosophie erlangte um die Wende zum 20. Jahrhundert große Popularität und erlebte fast ein Jahrhundert später eine bedeutende Wiederbelebung, was ihre anhaltende Wirkung unterstreicht.
