After-effects
After 1945, the remaining German Christian currents formed smaller communities and circles distanced from the newly-formed umbrella of the independent church bodies Evangelical Church in Germany. German Christian-related parties sought to influence the historiography of the Kirchenkampf in the so-called "church-historical working group", but they had little effect from then on in theology and politics. Other former members of the German Christians moved into the numerically insignificant religious communities known as the Free People's Christian Church (German: Freie Christliche Volkskirche) and the People's Movement of Free Church Christians (German: Volkskirchenbewegung Freie Christen) after 1945.
