John Yeury de Baun "was granted permission by the denominational synod meeting in New York, New York in June, 1866, to publish a monthly periodical" called The Banner of Truth from Hackensack, New Jersey; that de Baun sold it in 1903 to businessmen who shortened the name to The Banner and increased frequency to bi-weekly; and that "the Christian Reformed Church bought the magazine in 1914, which continues to be published to this day," today monthly, with a stated mandate to "inform, inspire, educate, and challenge members of the CRCNA."
