While circulation fulfillment is done by Augsburg Fortress Publishers, the ELCA publishing house located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, all editorial, advertising, marketing and online functions are done in the Chicago offices.
Originally historically titled The Lutheran with antecedents going back to the 1831, the magazine changed its name in 2016.
The present publication carries the heritage of almost a half-dozen earlier denominational publications of the several merged churches over the previous two centuries, most especially The Lutheran Standard of the former Joint Synod of Ohio (1818) and the two subsequent American Lutheran Churches of 1930 and 1960, before being reestablished using the name of the predecessor United Lutheran Church in America and Lutheran Church in America magazines as a result of the merger that formed the ELCA in 1988.
[citation needed] It is distributed in more than 50 countries and is a member of the Associated Church Press.
