Michael Welker (born 20 November 1947 in Erlangen, Germany) is a German Protestant theologian and professor of Systematic theology (Dogmatics).
Biblical Theology and “general theory” are the main focus of his research.
He reached a wider audience with publications about the Spirit of God, creation (especially in dialog with the sciences), the role of the church in pluralistic societies, resurrection and the Protestant view of the Lord’s Supper, but also his work related to Alfred North Whitehead and process theology, to Niklas Luhmann and systems theory.
