The union resulted in a church which mixed confessional orthodoxy and low-church pietism, and happened at a time of great unrest in response to World War I and the problems of assimilation. In 1918, the church voted to remove the word \u201cNorwegian\u201d from its name, but under heavy opposition, the decision reversed its decision the following year. The reversal lasted until 1946, when the NLCA changed its name to the Evangelical Lutheran Church (ELC). In 1960, the ELC took part in the merger which formed The American Lutheran Church, bringing to an end the era of the solely Norwegian American Lutheran Church.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_divider et_pb_divider_0 et_pb_space\"><div class=\"et_pb_divider_internal\"><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":859,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1706","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/P4QTkz-rw","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/locluth\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1706","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/locluth\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/locluth\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/locluth\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/859"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/locluth\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1706"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/locluth\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1706\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1717,"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/locluth\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1706\/revisions\/1717"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/locluth\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
