About Forward in Christ

"May the LORD our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may he never leave us nor forsake us” (1 Kings 8:57).

Forward in Christ (FIC) is the official magazine of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod.

Forward in Christ has a rich history that dates back to 1914 when WELS first began publishing a synodical magazine in the English language. Known as The Northwestern Lutheran, the magazine may have a different name and a different look today, but it continues to inform and inspire its readers. If you are looking for an article published in The Northwestern Lutheran, Northwestern Lutheran, Forward, or Forward in Christ, we can help.
