October 1996 – October 2021

Grand Rapids, Mich, (Oct. 2021)  – Zondervan, a division of HarperCollins Christian Publishing, and Biblica, a global Bible ministry, are proud to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the New International Reader’s Version (NIrV). Since the first publication of the full NIrV Bible in 1996, it has sold more than 8.5 million copies and impacted the lives of many more around the globe.

“There has never been a more meaningful time to ensure that young readers and English language learners have access to God’s Word in a faithful, easy-to-read text,” says Melinda Bouma, vice president and publisher of Bibles for Zondervan. “It’s humbling to see the impact the NIrV translation has had during the last 25 years. We celebrate this significant anniversary, the tireless efforts of everyone involved in bringing it to fruition, our partnership with Biblica, and more importantly all the lives that have been changed by it. It is so exciting to dream of those it will impact in the next 25 years!”

“Biblica is honored to steward and publish the New International Reader’s Version. This translation is the foundation for many of Biblica’s ministry resources. It has impacted countless lives through prison ministry resources like the Free on the Inside Bible. Hundreds of thousands of teens throughout the English-speaking world are learning to make healthy life choices through the Reach4Life New Testament. Numerous children around the world are discovering God’s Word in their learning style through the Treasure Hunt Bible. The readable and accurate NIrV makes this life-changing ministry possible,” said Jonathan Call, senior vice president of translation, publishing, and digital innovation at Biblica.

The NIrV is based on the New International Version (NIV), the most widely read and trusted modern English Bible translation in the world. While the NIV enjoys a widespread reputation as the best combination of accuracy and readability for anyone at a seventh-grade reading level and up, a vision was cast decades ago to honor younger readers and individuals with a non-English primary language, by creating the NIrV developed at a third-grade reading level. This makes it ideal for new and beginning Bible readers, and those who struggle with reading in English.

“Our goal on the NIrV translation team is to make the wonderful work of the NIV available to all those who want or need a translation that is easier to understand while remaining rigorously faithful to the original texts of Scripture,” said Michael Williams, PhD., chair of the NIrV translation committee and member of the Committee on Bible Translation (CBT), the group responsible for maintaining the NIV text. “The NIrV removes as many barriers as possible to a fuller comprehension of the Bible by people of all ages and abilities.”

Nearly 40 people from 14 denominations – many of the same people who translated the NIV – worked together on the development of the NIrV. Each verse was meticulously evaluated in light of the meaning of the original languages in which the Bible was written. Sentence structure, grammar, syntax, and word selection were all carefully reviewed to ensure maximum comprehension while retaining Biblical accuracy.

Throughout the work to make the NIrV a more readable translation, a heavy emphasis was also placed on making it more understandable. Literary experts and educators specializing in elementary education examined both sentence structure and word choices, searching for every possible opportunity to clarify the Scriptures.

Sentences were kept to no more than 15 words and expressions that only native English speakers would understand, such as idioms, figures of speech and nation-specific allusions, were avoided. Even with those changes, the NIrV does not compromise the biblical text in any way:

The NIrV translation team followed the NIV guidelines for accuracy, clarity, and readability, and the NIV was constantly referenced throughout the process. All of the work was approved by a final review committee composed of several members of the Committee on Bible Translation (CBT). This committee structure, with its built-in checks and balances, assures Scriptural integrity and literary and stylistic excellence. They still meet regularly to address any necessary updates.

Releasing Sept. 21, book encourages women to know they are already enough

NASHVILLE, TN., Sept. 8, 2021 – Understanding the struggle of fighting insecurity and trying to live up to worldly expectations and pressure, beloved musician, YouTube sensation, wife, mother of three and author Kelsey Grimm is releasing her debut book “Over It: Forgetting Who You’re Expected to be and Becoming Who You Already Are” on Sept. 21 from Worthy Books.

In “Over It,” Grimm gets vulnerable and honest to share the message that women don’t have to ascribe to what outside influences like TikTok, Instagram and even the Church say they need to be or what they need to look like because who they are is already enough. Grimm wants readers to know that she is just like them – wearing multiple hats trying to barely hold it all together.

“The message is loud and clear – today’s culture tells us exactly what we’re supposed to be: what our bodies should look like, where our beauty and worth lie, our level of success based on what we can offer the world,” said Grimm. “I wanted to write this book to let women know they are not alone by being vulnerable because I am so over the suffocating pressure of performance and expectation that we place on ourselves.”

“Over It” walks through topics covering the importance of not journeying through life alone, addressing the dangers of false expectations and understanding the significance in placing value in who we think we were created to be rather than who we are.

“Many of us have adopted a way to view God as someone wanting to catch us in trouble and not catch us with His love,” said Grimm. “We have owned something that God never said about us. In fact, it’s the opposite of what God has said about us. We’ve created entire traditions and customs in response to how we felt we were supposed to get into contact with God.”

Grimm is part of the popular duo Caleb + Kelsey with her husband Caleb. Generating a loyal following, Caleb + Kelsey have over 500 million video views on Facebook, approaching 5 million followers, eclipsing 65 million YouTube views and several #1 selling albums.

WESTMONT, IL— With the forthcoming releases of We the Fallen People and Struggling with Evangelicalism, InterVarsity Press (IVP) continues its yearlong seventy-fifth anniversary celebration by telling the story of its history of publishing books that have shaped and reflected evangelical discourse. Since the publication of Basic Christianity in 1964, IVP has published landmark resources on what it means to live and look like a Christian.

IVP’s history with Christianity and relationship to evangelicalism stems from InterVarsity Christian Fellowship’s roots in England. From its early days, IVP focused on writing books to reach college students and engage current cultural trends. In the book Heart. Soul. Mind. Strength.: An Anecdotal History of InterVarsity Press, 1947–2007, coauthors Andrew T. Le Peau and Linda Doll wrote, “InterVarsity Press . . . saw openness to the academic world as a means of bringing minds under the lordship of Christ.” As IVP grew, it expanded the range of topics addressed in its books.

The 1960s saw the publication of The God Who Is There and Escape from Reason by Francis A. Schaeffer and Know Why You Believe by Paul E. Little. In 1972 IVP published Knowing God by J. I. Packer. IVP continued to publish books by John Stott, such as Christian Mission in the Modern World in 1976 and The Cross of Christ in 1986. These books reflect the growing interest among evangelicals in the life of the mind and how to live as a Christian in the world.

As Christians and evangelicals have considered what it means to live and look like a Christian in a changing world, IVP’s books have reflected these changes while maintaining a commitment to love for God, God’s Word, and God’s purposes in the world. The formation of the IVP Academic imprint in the early 2000s highlighted IVP’s commitment to academic life and thought and featured Christian scholarship across the disciplines.

In 2004 IVP published the first volume in the History of Evangelicalism series, The Rise of Evangelicalism by Mark A. Noll. Coedited by Mark Noll and David Bebbington, this series reflects the diversity of evangelical belief and practice around the world. In a recent piece reflecting on this series and the meaning of evangelical today, Noll wrote, “The rewarding chance to work on the series has, in turn, provided a propitious angle from which to comment especially on questions of diversity, continuity, incoherence, and coherence raised by contemporary debates over the meaning of ‘evangelical’ and ‘evangelicalism.’ It also points to a conclusion that the most significant present-day questions about the history of evangelicalism do not arise from American political turmoil but from the shape of world Christianity as a whole.”

The political turmoil Noll writes about is reflected in recent IVP books, such as Still Evangelical?, Compassion (&) Conviction, and most recently, We the Fallen People. In We the Fallen People historian Robert Tracy McKenzie presents a close look at the ideas of human nature to be found in the history of American democratic thought. McKenzie described his motivation for writing We the Fallen People as “reflect[ing] my deep concern for the future of American democracy and even greater concern for the public testimony of American Christians. The political polarization that engulfs us poses a dire challenge to both. My ultimate goal is not to make a political statement but rather to help Christians think Christianly about democracy. We must think Christianly before we can act faithfully, and as we do so, both the witness of the church and the stability of our political institutions will benefit.”

As many Christians today are reconsidering whether to use the evangelical label, Dan Stringer presents his consideration of this issue in Struggling with Evangelicalism. Stringer considers evangelicalism within the context of its global expression and how “evangelicalism is not just a brand to identify with but a space to inhabit.” Stringer writes, “I care deeply about evangelicalism because it has been my home through every life change. This vital thread holds together the complexities of my story. Having wrestled extensively with my own mixed feelings about evangelicalism’s brokenness and beauty, I’m ready to help others do the same.”

Carol Stream, Ill. (September 21, 2021) — Tyndale House Publishers (@tyndalehouse) announced that Rev. Esau McCaulley, PhD, will publish God’s Colorful Kingdom Storybook Bible: The Story of God’s Big Diverse Family with Tyndale Kids in January 2023.

God’s Colorful Kingdom Storybook Bible will tell the story of God’s love of ethnic diversity and his concern for the poor, his justice, and his compassion. This one-of-a-kind storybook Bible will include 16 Old Testament stories and 15 New Testament stories, guiding children and parents to understand God’s overarching story of grace and his intentional design for an ethnically diverse church that cares about the vulnerable. Several of the stories aren’t traditionally included in storybook Bibles, providing new learning opportunities for families.

McCaulley is an assistant professor of New Testament at Wheaton College in Wheaton, IL. He is the author of Reading While Black: African American Biblical Interpretation as an Exercise in Hope, which won numerous awards, including Christianity Today’s Beautiful Orthodoxy Book of the Year. As a father of four, biblical scholar, and sought-after commentator on matters of faith, race, diversity, and culture, McCaulley is uniquely situated to craft a faithful, accessible rendering of the story of God’s diverse family.

“We are thrilled to be working with Esau on this book,” said Linda Howard, associate publisher for Tyndale Kids. “Our prayer is that Esau’s unique view of God’s plan for diversity throughout the Bible will help all of us be a more loving and unified body of Christ.”

About this exciting project, McCaulley said, “I hope that this storybook Bible introduces children to the wider world of the Scriptures in which God desires to create a just Kingdom from people of every ethnicity through the work of his Son, who loves us. As a parent, I know well the difficulty of finding resources that display this vision of the Scriptures to the young. I pray that families find it useful.”

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Sept. 20, 2021—One of the world’s largest Christian media and music providers, David C Cook announced today that John Aden will serve as the ministry’s new CEO, effective immediately.

At some of the world’s top companies, including Walmart Inc., Mac Tools and Frito-Lay, and for more than 25 years, Aden has been a senior executive delivering record growth, leveraging scale, driving innovation and building high-performance teams across the globe. As president of Mac Tools, he pioneered strategic partnerships with NASCAR, the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) and two TV shows, Monster Garage and Pimp My Ride, turning a struggling company into an industry leader. Most recently, John excelled in roles as executive vice president and senior vice president at Walmart, including leading the $50 billion General Merchandise unit to exceed all expectations and turning the declining Hardlines division into one of the fastest growing categories in Walmart.

Yet, Aden considers David C Cook his biggest assignment to date.

“I see this moment as such a critical time for the global church. The pandemic, politics and other challenges have taken a toll. Yet, I know that a united, vibrant church is God’s most powerful agent for reaching a lost world,” said Aden. “As I look back at my career, I am absolutely convinced that every experience, every skill developed, and every opportunity has been in preparation for my role at David C Cook. I believe there’s nothing more important for me to do at this stage in my life than use my unique talents to help serve, equip and grow the Church.”

David C Cook retained Korn Ferry, an internationally known executive search firm, to conduct an exhaustive executive search, using rigorous qualifications established by the board of directors. Out of more than 200 applicants, Aden rose to the top and was the unanimous choice based on his notable global leadership experience, background in delivering customer-centric solutions, emphasis on innovation and impressive resume of enhancement and growth.

Under Aden’s leadership, expect big things to happen, because he’s known for it. With global experience spanning five continents and 28 different countries, Aden plans to use the tools of customer insight, leveraging scale, and innovation to help authors, artists and creatives share God’s truth and build disciples around the world.

“Innovation is in the DNA of this ministry,” said Aden. “With this talented team, authors and musicians, David C Cook is uniquely positioned and qualified to be used by God to revitalize the local church—especially the tens of thousands of small churches with limited resources. I’m calling on a generation of content creators, digital developers and like-minded partners to join us as we lead and act NOW.”

Aden begins his role today with an intense focus on reigniting the heritage of David C Cook. The same priorities of consumer insights, innovation, solutions and scale that have made the organization great since 1875 will be activated to quickly accelerate into the future.

Aden believes the future is bright for David C Cook and that there is a new generation of authors, artists and digital creatives who share in the ministry’s passion for serving the church with world-class innovation. Aden desires for David C Cook to become a destination for creative geniuses being called to impact the church through relevant, creative and thoughtful, Christian resources.

The book from Zonderkidz will release January 4, 2022 (ISBN 9780310751045, $16.99, 240 pages).

“We’re living in a time of dramatic racial upheaval and kids are noticing. They see and hear more than we think. But fighting racism is too important to leave our kids without adequate guidance. They should learn about race, racism, and what to do about it from the adults in their lives who care about them most,” says Tisby, also the author of the adult trade books How to Fight Racism (Zondervan) and The Color of Compromise (Zondervan). “If you want kids in your life to stand up for racial justice, then this book is their guide to those all-important topics.”

The book is now available for pre-order everywhere books are sold. A media tour will be a part of the book launch during the month of January. All media inquiries can be directed to jessica.westra@harpercollins.com. Advance copies can be requested through NetGalley.

New Kensington, Pa., September 22, 2021—Whitaker House author and lead pastor at the nondenominational New Song Church and Ministries in Denver, Colorado, Pastor R. Loren Sandford, died Friday, Sept. 17, due to complications from COVID-19. Sandford was 70.

Since receiving his Master of Divinity Degree from Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California, in 1976, Sandford has served four churches full time, planting two of them himself, including New Song Church and Ministries. He is the author of several books, including The Last Great Outpouring: Preparing for an Unprecedented Move of God, which released by Whitaker House in 2020.

“Whitaker House was fortunate to have worked with Pastor Sandford,” said Publisher Christine Whitaker. “He was a caring pastor who was attentively listening to the Spirit’s leading with a passion to see a move of God that we have yet to see. He will be missed but his words and legacy will live on.”

September 20, 2021 — Flagler Law Group is pleased to announce Sandon M. Fisher will join the firm’s Asheville, North Carolina office as Associate Attorney on October 15, 2021. Sandon’s service to the firm’s clients will focus on business transactions, primarily drafting contracts and negotiating acquisitions, as well as trademark prosecution and related intellectual property advice.  As the firm’s practice has grown, the volume and complexity of intellectual property and transactional needs of its clients has increased.

Veteran intellectual property attorney, Craig Gipson – who celebrated his ten-year anniversary with the firm this year – has been promoted to Of Counsel and will maintain the firm’s West Coast presence.  As Of Counsel, Craig will continue to counsel and manage projects for publishers and other rights organizations as well as expand his First Amendment, privacy, and dispute resolution practice.

Craig’s promotion and the addition of Sandon to the team of dedicated legal professionals at Flagler Law Group enables the firm to continue to provide efficient and cost-effective counsel to Christian publishers, ministries, churches, seminaries, and other content organizations.

Sandon comes to Flagler Law Group with just shy of six years of experience as a practicing attorney. Most recently he served as Legislative Counsel to the State of Alaska. Sandon honed his transactional skills as an Associate Attorney at the firm Manley & Brautigam in Anchorage. Sandon earned his Juris Doctorate at Liberty University School of Law, and was admitted to the Alaska Bar in 2015.

“Sandon’s recruitment and Craig’s promotion reinforce our commitment to continually improving best practices and maximizing efficiency, which we tailor to the needs of publishers and ministries.”
