New Book Coming April 4, 2023
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (April 12, 2023) – Tommy Nelson and Passion Publishing announced that their Indescribable Kids series by pastor of Passion City Church and national bestselling author Louie Giglio has surpassed more than one million copies sold. Passion Publishing and Tommy Nelson celebrated this noteworthy achievement together in Atlanta on February 10, 2023.
“I am humbled and blown away that the Indescribable Kids books have reached such a rare milestone, and I’m grateful for the partnership with Passion Publishing and Tommy Nelson. But what’s even more encouraging is knowing that behind these numbers are countless stories of children and families who are having their eyes opened to the greatness of our Creator through His creation,” said Giglio.
Inspired by two of Giglio’s most well-known and inspiring messages (“Indescribable” and “How Great is Our God”), the first title in the series, Indescribable: 100 Devotions About God and Science, was released in 2017. It became an instant bestseller, receiving positive reviews from esteemed Christian personalities like Chris Tomlin, Priscilla Shirer and Jamie Ivey and was recognized with an Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA) Gold Award. The series has since expanded to include additional devotionals (How Great is Our God and The Wonder of Creation), a board book and more. It has also been adapted into a podcast (Indescribable Kids) hosted by characters from the books. The next book in the series, Indescribable Activity Book for Kids, releases on April 4.
The three devotionals have also been translated into twenty-three languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Arabic, French, Afrikaans and Russian, to name a few.
As the original visionary of the Passion Movement, Louie Giglio has ministered to millions of people around the world, reaching college students, church leaders and people of all walks of life for decades. “My hope is the Indescribable Kids books will continue to help children around the world gain a bigger view of who God is through His creation and, as a result, gain a more accurate view of who they are.” said Giglio.
