As the first North American journal for and about Mennonites, its older issues contain a wealth of historical materials about their life and theology. It includes articles on the Radical Reformation, Amish, Mennonites and Hutterites, as well as reviews of recent publications and research notes.
As of January 2004, the journal had a total circulation of over 1,000 copies, with 870 paid subscriptions. The total circulation in 1956 was approximately 600.[1]
