Lutheran Woman Today is an award-winning magazine that reaches more than 150,000 women throughout the Lutheran (ELCA) church.

Lutheran Woman Today connects women of all
ages with others who are committed to growing
in faith and sharing the Good News of God's love–next door and across the globe.

• It offers articles that inform, challenge, provoke thought and conversation, and give comfort and encouragement–to help women live out their faith in their communities and the world.
   
• The magazine provides a Bible study session in every issue, as well as an engaging mix of faith–in–life articles, theological reflections by noted Lutheran scholars, and stories that speak to the hearts of progressive Christian women.
  
• The Lutheran Woman Today Bible study is used by thousands of church–organized women's groups across the United States. The articles and Bible study session in each issue of LWT complement and enrich one another.
   
• The magazine has appeal across lines of age and ethnicity. Also, a number of men report that they read every issue. Lutheran Woman Today regularly hears from readers who are members of other mainline Protestant denominations, as well.
