Stille Stunder

Stille Stunder is a Norwegian Christian periodical founded in 1889 by Johannes Barstad. It is historically significant as a symbol of the movement known as the "Christianization of the landsmål" (kristninga av landsmålet) and served as a publication venue for several hymns, including works by Elias Blix. The magazine was published by its founder from 1889 to 1931, then by his wife, and from 1935 to 1954 by Oslo Kristelege Landsungdomslag. From 1954, a dedicated magazine committee in Bergen took over publication, and from the late 1950s the Kyrkjenemndi i Bergen (Church Committee in Bergen) became the publisher. Since 2012, the Foreininga Stille Stunder (Stille Stunder Association) has published the magazine. The publication has had a long line of editors, including Johannes Barstad (1889–1931), Elenore Barstad (1931–1934), Olav Gautestad, Alfred Hauge, Erling Ulltveit (from 1951), Bernhard Eide, Gudmund Skiftun, Haakon Svarstad (1981–1989), Ådne Skiftun (1990–1995), Alfred Hamre (1995–2004), Ivar Molde (2004–2024), and Hanne Marie Molde (from 2024). The magazine remains active and is based in Bergen, Norway.
