Albert Theodore Mollegen, Sr. (February 17, 1906 – January 22, 1984) was a widely-known apologist for classical Christianity and a proponent of evangelical liberalism.

[2] At Union, Mollegen was one of the first American students of the religious socialist Paul Tillich.

[1] Mollegen taught New Testament language and literature and Christian ethics at the Virginia Theological Seminary for most of his career.

[2] In 1947, he founded Christianity and Modern Man, a liberal evangelical organization.

Mollegen strongly believed that the revival of Christian religion clearly rests on the individual having a closer connection to God, and not the clergy.
