In the first issue the purpose of the magazine was explained: It was supposed to help build a community of European evangelical theology. a. The new political freedoms in Central and Eastern Europe would offer a special opportunity to make people aware of their common identity as the heirs of a Christian Europe.

The first year was published in 1992 (hence the 24th year will appear in 2015), with each year consisting of two issues with a total of around 200 pages per year. One reason for the beginning of the magazine was the turning point in the East and the resulting new perspective for Europe.

The new political freedoms of central and eastern Europe, and growing economic and political integration in the west, offer Christians a special challenge as we rediscover and reassert our common identity as the legatees of Christian Europe.
