Die IKZ ist wohl der erste und wichtigste Ort, wo man sich laufend und direkt über die Entwicklung altkatholischer Theologie und über Ergebnisse historischer Forschung zum Altkatholizismus orientieren kann. Im weiteren berichtet die IKZ über die Wahrnehmung des ökumenischen Anliegens der altkatholischen Kirche, zu deren vorrangigen Partnern traditionell die östliche Orthodoxie und die anglikanische Kirchengemeinschaft gehören. In der "Kirchlichen Chronik" werden einerseits die offiziellen Verlautbarungen der "Internationalen Altkatholischen Bischofskonferenz" (IBK), dem ersten Organ der Utrechter Union, veröffentlicht, aber auch wichtige Beschlüsse der altkatholischen Orts- bzw. Nationalkirchen. Andererseits werden für den Altkatholizismus wichtige Ereignisse aus der weltweiten Ökumene aufgegriffen und mitgeteilt.
