For instruction and investigation. For mature youth. Not to be religious, nor confessional. To maintain German, cover many fields of knowledge. Some subscribers thought it too worldly, but C.F.W. Walther defended its claim to be Lutheran and Christian. He urged people to subscribe to it.

It was considered the "less official" publication of the Missouri Synod.
