Carol Stream, IL (May 5, 2025) — Tyndale House Publishers is pleased to announce that they have been honored with a Christian Book Award. Presented annually since 1978, the Christian Book Award program honors the “best of the year” in Christian literature.
How to Tell the Truth, bestselling book by Preston Perry, was named the winner in the “New Author” category. Preston tells the story of how God chased him. The streets of Chicago were his home, and it was there that he encountered all sorts of people who had their own versions of the truth—from Jehovah’s Witnesses to Mormons to Hebrew Israelites. That is where Preston discovered not only the importance of the truth but how to tell the truth in a way that speaks to someone’s heart. How to Tell the Truth is a hope-filled apologetics book that features Preston’s own story in order to show us how urgent our task is—and how powerful our God is.
“When I heard Preston’s story, I immediately knew he had to tell it in a book,” said Jon Farrar, Associate Publisher, Nonfiction. “I am happy that Preston is reaching this generation. His poetic voice, married to evangelism and apologetics, is unique.”
