(Johann) '''Wilhelm Herrmann''' (1846—1922) was a German [[Liberal Christian]] theologian. As a student, the [[Conservative Christian]] and [[Fundamentalist]] theologian [[John Gresham Machen]] studied with him in 1905. Other students included [[Karl Barth]] and [[Rudolf Bultmann]]. In his day Herrmann was famous throughout the Western World's Academy, even being invited to lecture at the [[University of Chicago]] in 1904. His book ''The Commuion of the Christian with God'' (1886 German, 1896 English) went through seven editions and was widely read throughout the Academy (American, British, and European). The book was about how to pray and commune with [[God]] when dealing with the 19th century mechanical scientific worldview. According to Herrman, prayer could be achieved through personal Christianity and an encounter with Jesus, the living God. <ref> [http://books.google.com/books?id=e4oaXKWybqgC&pg=PA124&dq=Wilhelm+Herrmann+Karl+Barth&as_brr=3&ei=A-RYSYnkCIuINoi67K4L#PPA126,M1 ''Theology in a Global Context''], Hans Schwarz, Wm.
