[[Image:Berlin1.jpg|right|frame]] [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Adolf_von_Harnack Adolf von Harnack] was a German (Lutheran) theologian of the late ninteenth and early twentieth centuries who taught at the University of Berlin.  His most popular and enduring work '''What is Christianity?''' is still required reading for a basic theological education today.  In this book Harnack asserts that at the heart of Christianity was a simple message that was subsequently obscured, particularly by the philosophy, dogma, and metaphysics of the post-apostolic and Nicean periods.  Harnack produced a wide ranging corpus of scholarship throughout his career, but the effort to answer the question in the title of his signature book remained the project closest to his heart.  Along with his colleagues, Harnack pioneered new methods of scholarship that changed the field of biblical studies forever, but he ultimately enlisted those methods in the search for the missing heart of Christianity.
