The title, "Signs of the Times", comes from the words of Jesus: “You know how to interpret the weather signs in the sky, but you don’t know how to interpret the signs of the times!”
The Signs of the Times magazine is one of Australia and New Zealand’s longest, continuous-running magazines. In January 1886, the first issue was titled, "Bible Echo and Signs of the Times".
Now, 135 years after its launch, the underlying purpose of this magazine hasn’t changed. It is still driven by a Christian philosophy that takes the Bible seriously; recognises Jesus as the ultimate hope in people’s lives and for our planet; and takes a whole-of-life approach to lifestyle, health and relationships.
