“A deeply valuable reflection on motherhood.” ―Rowan Williams

In this part-memoir, part social and theological commentary,Chine McDonald deconstructs the myth of perfect motherhood and shines a light on the darker side of parenting. From birth trauma to post-natal depression, from infertility to the mental load, the motherhood penalty and pressures on women to be it all and have it all, this book aims to liberate motherhood from the chains in which it has been placed, reconstructing a more authentic, grace-filled way forward for the most important job in the world.

God is Not a White Man author Chine McDonald lifts the lid on the reality of becoming a mum in the 21st Century, exploring how motherhood has been shaped by historical, theological and social understandings of what it is to be a woman and a mother.

For two thousand years, the Virgin Mary has been depicted throughout art, literature and culture as symbolising the perfect mother: chaste, beautiful, meek, mild and white. These supposed virtues and symbols have penetrated not just Christianity but wider popular culture; and contributed to harmful views about motherhood and what it is to be a woman.

Chine McDonald says: “This book will require me to delve deep into the dark heart of motherhood, critiquing the shiny, saccharine and chaste ideals that leave no room for imperfections. It will not be easy, but I hope and pray through telling the truth about motherhood and what it is to be a woman – warts and all – we’ll uncover the beauty that exists in unexpected places. I’m honoured to have been trusted with so many women’s stories as part of this project, and I hope that it might free us all from the shame, chains and judgment that society – and the Church – place on all of us, including those entrusted with the most important job in the world.”

Unmaking Mary includes a foreword written by Beth Allison Barr, author of The Making of Biblical Womanhood.

“Astute, smart, witty and brave. A radical, deeply thoughtful and essential intervention”

Christian kids’ streaming leader breaks barriers in accessibility with ASL Bible episodes; expands Spanish and Portuguese content

Minno will launch American Sign Language (ASL) versions of “Laugh and Grow Bible for Kids” on August 8, 2025

NASHVILLE, Tenn., July 1, 2025 —  Minno, the #1 source of Christian content for kids, announces it will launch American Sign Language (ASL) versions of its flagship series, “Laugh and Grow Bible for Kids,” on August 8, 2025, taking groundbreaking steps in its mission to help kids experience Jesus every day, in every way. The children’s streaming platform developed the ASL programming in partnership with Bridge Multimedia, which has previously worked with PBS Kids and Google.

“We’re building the most accessible Christian kids’ media platform in the world,” said Erick Goss, CEO and Co-founder of Minno. “To our knowledge, this is the first time a Bible series for kids has ever been created in American Sign Language—and it’s just the beginning. Every child deserves the chance to experience the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the way they learn best—whether through ASL, their native language, or as a story at bedtime. No other platform is delivering faith-based content for kids at this scale or quality.”

Minno is also expanding its Spanish language offerings, which were recently added to the platform, and will soon include Portuguese. This fall, Minno will also launch the original series “Guillermo & Will,” a dual-language Spanish-English preschool series created by Emmy-nominated puppeteer Donna Kimball. Spanish-language content consistently ranks in the platform’s top 10 most-watched programming on YouTube.

The flagship series “Laugh and Grow Bible for Kids,” which currently includes 42 episodes and three 30-minute specials, continues to expand with several new features and formats including the Spanish and Portuguese language versions, a new “In the Beginning” special, several new episodes including “Daniel and the Lions,” “The Book of Songs,” and “The Family of Jesus,” American Sign Language (ASL) versions (launching Aug 8) and audio-only versions designed for bedtime, car trips and screen-free time.

Recent content additions to the platform include fan-favorite, “The Dead Sea Squirrels” from VeggieTales co-creator Mike Nawrocki, and Minno’s new originals “Micah,” “Suni the Super Unicorn,” and “God’s Greenhouse” from KidMin creator Areo Keller Donahue, whose new special “God’s Greenhouse Get Ready for Bed Special” will launch September 5.

Over the past year (2024-2025), Minno has seen incredible growth of its streaming platform and YouTube channel, positioning it as today’s leading faith-based family content platform. Significant milestones include:

• Triple-digit membership growth for the com subscription-video-on-demand (SVOD) platform, propelling it into the top 1% of direct-to-consumer subscription companies.
• YouTube: One million subscribers on YouTube (150% year-over-year growth), 122 million views in the past 12 months, placing Minno in top .06% of most subscribed channels on YouTube.

“This expansion is just the beginning for Minno,” said Goss. “We believe the opportunity to reach kids with high-quality Christian content during the most formative window of their lives is massive—and we’re called to meet it. We’re building a global library of faith-filled stories shaped by theologians, child development experts, children’s media specialists, and Emmy-nominated Christian creators. Our goal is nothing short of setting a new standard for what kids’ faith-based content can be—and making it accessible to families around the world.”

ASL versions of Laugh and Grow Bible for Kids will be available exclusively on Minno starting August 8, 2025. Families can sign up today at GoMinno.com

(COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado)—With the planned fall retirement of Founder Sharon Mumper, the comprehensive online training program and resource-rich website of Magazine Training International (MTI) have been assumed by the Evangelical Press Association (EPA).

The two organizations have reached an agreement for EPA to assume responsibility for and continuation of the online training program and online resources previously provided by MTI.

Through an asset transfer agreement, EPA has become owner of the magazinetraining.com website and all its digital training resources. EPA will adopt the Magazine Training International tradename and trademark as a DBA of EPA, operating it as a separate division of EPA.

With a shared vision to encourage, strengthen, and provide training and resources to Christian magazine publishers, EPA and MTI have been ministry partners since 2015. So, it was a natural choice for EPA to carry the ministry into the future.

“Years ago, EPA Director Lamar Keener shared with us his vision for continued education for Christians in magazine publishing,” says MTI President and Founder Sharon Mumper. “Since then, we have worked together to provide professional training for EPA constituents in North America and our international colleagues. I’m thrilled this high-quality instruction will continue to be available to Christians in publishing worldwide.”

MTI was founded in 1989 to provide training and resources to Eastern Europe’s new Christian publishers after the fall of communism. The ministry expanded to the countries of the former Soviet Union in 1996, to Southeast Asia in 2000, and West Asia in 2011. In 2018, MTI began to offer training In both anglophone and francophone Africa.

Since 1989, more than 70 onsite conferences have been offered in some 20 countries worldwide. In 1999, MTI began to offer five magazine publishing courses with course manuals and in 2019 a comprehensive textbook. DVD courses were added in 2008, and in 2013 MTI began to offer online training, including live workshops, four-to-eight-week trainer-led courses, ebooks, and training videos. Since then, thousands of people from more than 100 countries have taken part in the online training program more than 10,000 times.

“I am both humbled and grateful for this opportunity to continue the legacy of MTI as a vital resource for Christian magazine publishers worldwide,” says Keener.

MTI Communications Director Jennifer Howard, who has been largely responsible for MTI’s online program, will continue to direct the program.

EPA will also collaborate with Media Associates International (MAI) to provide magazine training for their triennial LittWorld conferences held around the world.

“The MTI board is grateful that the training ministry of MTI can continue to equip publishers around the world to reach their cultures with the Good News,” says MTI Board Chair Carla Foote.

“This agreement represents a powerful step forward for Christian publishing,” says Dwight Widaman, EPA board president. “By combining the strengths of EPA and MTI, we’re not only preserving a legacy but also expanding EPA’s commitment to support and inspire publishers in a rapidly changing media landscape.”

While EPA and MTI received grant funding for this transition,  they encourage those with a heart for equipping Christian communicators around the world to continue donations through magazinetraining.com to support the future of digital training and online resources.

About Magazine Training International
Magazine Training International’s mission is to encourage, strengthen, and provide training and resources to Christian magazine publishers as they seek to build the church and reach their societies for Christ. MTI serves Christians in under-resourced countries who often have little or no experience in publishing, but are strongly motivated to publish, and want to make their magazines stable and effective.

Founder of Million Praying Moms Brooke McGlothlin steps down and Whitaker House steps up in new partnership along with new leader Nicolet Bell

Whitaker House is excited to announce their acquisition of Million Praying Moms (MPM), a ministry providing long-time encouragement and support for mothers. A community built from scratch by founder and author Brooke McGlothlin, the site offers an array of resources, such as their popular podcast, books, ebooks, and courses on prayer. Whitaker Corporation, which has been creating and distributing Christian resources for over fifty years, has already been partnering with MPM on their successful line of Everyday Prayers books.

In response to stepping down and passing the mantle to Nicolet Bell and Whitaker House, McGlothin said, “For over a decade, Million Praying Moms has helped thousands of moms make prayer a priority for their families, teaching them that it is not a last resort, but the first and best response to the challenges of motherhood. Leading women to be praying moms has been one of the greatest privileges of my life. I am filled with hope and confidence in the team God has brought together to move Million Praying Moms forward and can’t wait to see the continued fruit of this important ministry.”

Rising into Brooke’s role as the new head is Nicolet Bell, CEO of JourneyWise. “I am excited to continue Brooke’s incredible legacy she has built with Million Praying Moms,” says Bell. “I am grateful for the opportunity and expectant for God to continue to use this ministry to encourage moms in prayer as they face the challenges of parenting. I am glad this ministry is a great fit with the mission and vision of Whitaker House.”

Through this partnership, Whitaker House seeks to continue fulfilling the ministry’s mission and offering valuable new resources for mothers across the globe. Publisher Christine Whitaker states, “Whitaker House deeply respects and admires the heart behind Million Praying Moms to give parents tools and to not just pray but to create a community of prayer. It is in that community that we find we are not alone in the weight of caring for another human in all its glories and hardships. We have partnered with Million Praying Moms in order to keep the heartbeat of this community beating strong.”

Concerned with beauty and justice, Glanville’s approach to expository preaching will nourish our shared life.”

Glanville (PhD) currently works as the Director of the Centre for Missional Leadership at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, and is the author of five books. He has pastored in creative, justice-seeking churches for fourteen years in both Canada and Australia and has played jazz piano professionally for thirty years.

BRENTWOOD, Tenn.—Revive Our Hearts and Holman Bible Publishers have partnered to create a new Christian Standard Bible (CSB) notetaking edition to encourage women to incorporate journaling in their study of God’s Word.

The “CSB Notetaking Bible, Revive Our Hearts Edition” was inspired by the journaling experience of Nancy Demoss Wolgemuth, Revive Our Hearts founder, after a friend gave her a CSB Notetaking Bible in 2018.

“That Bible was my faithful companion on what became a five-year journey through God’s Word,” said Wolgemuth. “As I journaled through Scripture, soaking in each chapter and verse, I developed a deep appreciation for the readability and faithfulness of this translation, and eventually it became my primary go-to for personal study and teaching.”

Revive Our Hearts is a global ministry helping women to find freedom, fullness and fruitfulness in Christ. Through decades of ministry, Wolgemuth has shared the message of heart revival and biblical womanhood through daily teaching, resources, events such as True Woman conferences, and digital and broadcast outreaches.

“The CSB team and Revive Our Hearts share a commitment to God’s Word and a conviction of its transformational power,” said Andy McLean, publisher for Holman Bibles. “It’s an honor to partner with this ministry in this notetaking edition and to encourage believers as they journal through their discipleship journey.”

For those who use the new notetaking Bible, Wolgemuth said she hopes it will “become a means of fresh growth in your walk with Christ, the living Word.”

The “CSB Notetaking Bible, Revive Our Hearts Edition,” will be released July 15. The edition features prayers and encouragement written by Wolgemuth, along with tips for Bible journaling and a one-year Bible reading plan.

“What an amazing journey it was for me to journal through the Bible—and still is today, as I continue to steep in God’s Word, line upon line, day after day. So rich. Encouraging. Practical. Life-giving and life-transforming,” said Wolgemuth. “But this journey, this happy place, is not just for Bible teachers, authors or lifelong students of God’s Word. Wherever you may be in your spiritual pilgrimage, it is available for you.”

About Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth and Revive Our Hearts
As the founder and lead Bible teacher for Revive Our Hearts, Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth has dedicated her life and ministry to helping women thrive in Christ. Nancy’s love for Christ and passion for His Word are evident through her writing, digital and conference outreaches and her two daily audio teachings —“Revive Our Hearts” and “Seeking Him.” Her books have sold millions of copies and are reaching the hearts of women around the world.

Featuring Nancy’s Bible teaching, along with that of other like-minded voices, Revive Our Hearts exists to call women to freedom, fullness and fruitfulness in Christ. Through daily teaching, audio/video/print resources, events and digital and broadcast media, Revive Our Hearts is calling women around the world to:

Over 1.6 Million Copies Sold

[COLORADO SPRINGS, CO — July 7, 2025]  WaterBrook celebrates with Joanna Weaver the 25th anniversary of Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World, her beloved and bestselling book that has sold more than 1.6 million copies, been translated into 10 languages, including Spanish, and ministered to the hearts of women around the globe. Originally released in July 2000, this powerful and grace-filled message has continued to resonate with readers who long to balance the demands of daily life with a deep and abiding relationship with Jesus.

Weaver’s timeless classic has become a touchstone for Christian women’s spiritual growth. Through the New Testament story of Mary and Martha, the book offers a profound invitation for women who feel overwhelmed by expectations and exhausted by a world that demands they be everything to everyone. With honesty, wisdom, and humor, Weaver reminds us that Jesus’s invitation to Martha still stands today—for all of us to choose “the better part,” a life of intimacy with Him.

“I’m so grateful that God continues to use this book to speak to the hearts of women of all ages,” Weaver said. “I get notes from high school and college students as well as women in their 80s (sometimes from the same Bible study!) telling me how the book has transformed their walk with Jesus. All praise goes to Him!”   

“Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World has stood the test of time because it speaks to the soul of every woman trying to live faithfully in a fast-paced world,” said Campbell Wharton, Publisher, Penguin Random House Christian. “Joanna Weaver’s message of grace, balance, and intimacy with Christ continues to inspire generation after generation, and we are honored to celebrate this incredible milestone alongside her. This book is not only a spiritual classic—it’s one of WaterBrook’s most enduring backlist titles and remains an important part of our program.”

Over the years, Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World, along with its 10-week video Bible study and participant guide, has become a cherished companion for women’s ministries, small groups, and individual readers seeking transformation at the heart level. As we celebrate 25 years of impact, WaterBrook honors the book’s ongoing legacy: to call women into deeper devotion, more joyful service, and a life shaped not by hustle, but by holy relationship.

Joanna Weaver is the bestselling author of several books and Bible studies, including Having a Mary Spirit, Lazarus Awakening, and the devotional, At the Feet of Jesus. A beloved speaker and teacher, Joanna’s ministry has helped women worldwide grow spiritually and embrace God’s extravagant grace.
