John Horsch (18 December 1867 in Giebelstadt - 7 October 1941 in Scottdale, Pennsylvania) was a German American Mennonite theologian, historian, and editor. He was among the few Mennonite leaders of his time to actively support Christian fundamentalism and spearheaded a movement to purge those he and his allies deemed "modernists" from church colleges that promoted liberalism and Americanization.
