Cece Winans Invites Readers to Deepen Their Faith and Strengthen Generational Connections with New Devotional ‘Faith For Generations’ Available Today

LOS ANGELES, July 21, 2026 — For decades, CeCe Winans has inspired audiences around the world through music rooted in faith, worship, and hope. Now, she continues her mission of encouraging believers with the release of her newest book, Faith For Generations: 50 Devotions to Ignite a Passion for Christ through Love and Worship (K-LOVE Books), available wherever books are sold.

Marking her fifth literary release, Faith For Generations is a heartfelt 240-page devotional offering daily encouragement and spiritual wisdom designed to guide readers through life’s challenges one day at a time. Through transparent reflections, biblical truths, and uplifting messages, Winans reminds readers of the importance of staying spiritually grounded in an increasingly distracted world.

The timely release serves as a powerful follow-up to her bestselling 2022 title, Believe For It: Passing on Faith to the Next Generation. While that book focused on preserving faith within families, Faith For Generations expands the conversation by encouraging believers to cultivate stronger spiritual connections across every season of life. The devotional will inspire parents seeking to build faith-centered homes, grandparents desiring to leave a lasting spiritual legacy, mentors guiding younger generations, and believers searching for daily renewal and deeper intimacy with God.

“My prayer for Faith For Generations is that it encourages people to spend daily time with God and grow stronger in their faith together. No matter what’s happening in the world around us, God is still faithful, His Word still matters, and His love still changes lives,” says Winans.

Like many women balancing multiple roles, Winans understands the demands of modern life. As a wife, mother, daughter, sister, pastor, and mentor, she recognizes the necessity of making space for prayer, reflection, and worship amid life’s daily pressures. Through these 50 devotions, readers will discover practical ways to nurture spiritual growth at home, strengthen intergenerational relationships rooted in Christ, and remain anchored in God’s promises regardless of circumstance.

Winans’ broad multigenerational and cross-demographic appeal uniquely positions Faith For Generations to resonate far beyond traditional audiences. Much like her music ministry, which has transcended cultural and generational boundaries for more than four decades, this devotional is poised to encourage seasoned and emerging voices seeking guidance and spiritual encouragement.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., JULY 25 2026 — Zondervan Reflective, a division of HarperCollins Christian Publishing, is celebrating a landmark milestone for Tactics: A Game Plan for Discussing Your Christian Convictions by Gregory Koukl, which has now surpassed 500,000 copies sold. The achievement arrives at a moment when questions of faith, meaning, and truth are drawing unprecedented attention in the public square – from viral online debates to chart-topping podcasts – making Koukl’s approachable, conversation-first method to apologetics more relevant than ever.

First published in 2009 and later expanded in a widely praised 10th-anniversary edition, Tactics equips Christians with practical ways to engage skeptics and seekers with confidence and grace. Rather than arming readers with combative arguments, Koukl teaches a disarming, question-driven method that keeps conversations constructive and gets people genuinely talking about the claims of Christianity.

The milestone comes amid growing interest in apologetics globally. Koukl himself recently joined a widely discussed panel on The Diary of a CEO, one of the world’s most-listened-to podcasts, for a candid conversation on meaning, purpose, and truth. Conversations like these have introduced classical apologetics to audiences far beyond the church – precisely the readers Tactics was written to reach.

“Half a million copies sold is an amazing testament to how Tactics has equipped Christians to confidently talk about their faith,” said Ryan Pazdur, VP and Publisher for Zondervan Reflective. “In a culture full of noise and hostility, Tactics offers something rare: a way to have the conversation that is both winsome and wise. Its continued growth shows how hungry Christians are for exactly that.”

Built on decades of frontline experience engaging skeptics on the air and on university campuses, Tactics teaches readers how to meet challenges and provocations with poise and conviction, start spiritual conversations naturally, and present the truth of Christianity clearly, cleverly, and persuasively. Koukl’s aim is not to help readers win arguments but to help them, in his words, “put a stone in someone’s shoe” – leaving people with something to think about long after the conversation ends.

“When I wrote Tactics, my goal was simple – to help Christians feel confident and stay gracious in their most important conversations,” said Koukl. “To see it reach half a million readers is humbling. In a moment when so many people are genuinely seeking to graciously and confidently defend their faith, I’m grateful that God has used Tactics to help do just that.”

‘The Stories We Live By’ explores the flaws of popular stories that leave us feeling hollow and offers a more satisfying hope.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (June 2026) – As rates of depression and anxiety continue to rise, The Stories We Live By: Seven Cultural Myths That Fail Us and the Story That Never Will (Zondervan, Sept. 22, 2026) explores whether the very stories meant to guide us to happiness and meaning are actually leading us to despair and loneliness. 

In this new co-authored book, Michael Keller with insight and analysis from his father, pastor and author Timothy Keller, unmasks the hidden cultural narratives that shape our lives, often without our knowledge, to make sense of both the beauty and brokenness of the world. 

“Everyday expressions like ‘Follow your heart’ and ‘You do you’ are not throwaway phrases; they are powerful mini-stories of our modern culture that subconsciously inform our choices and actions,” writes Michael Keller. “Nursed on these narratives from birth and barely conscious of them, our understanding of the world and our place in it has been shaped by these stories.”   

The Stories We Live By is the culmination of a project Michael Keller and his dad began working on years before Timothy Keller’s passing in 2023. The father-and-son project became even more meaningful to Michael Keller after his father’s death, when he was bombarded with well-meaning cultural platitudes that failed when he needed them most. It was in this season of grief that Michael Keller returned to the notes and papers he and his father had been working on before he died.  

“Dad spent his last years thinking through seven narratives that quietly shape how we live—about who we are, what freedom means, what makes us happy, who holds power, where history is heading, what science can tell us and how justice works without a moral foundation,” Michael Keller said. “This book is the result of that work. His last cultural analysis for us.” 

As the Kellers note in The Stories We Live By, belief-transmitting stories are everywhere. We are taught them, not formally in a classroom, but by the music we listen to, the films we watch and the social media we scroll each day. These popular cultural narratives shape how we think about ourselves, how we act and how we tell the difference between right and wrong.  

The Stories We Live By explores seven key cultural narratives that interlock and reinforce one another to form a larger, cohesive metanarrative that shapes our lives: 

•  Identity: “You Have to Be True to Yourself” 
• Power: “The Only Way to Bring Change Is to Take Power from the ‘Bad’ and Give It to the ‘Good’” 
• Freedom: “Live Free. Just Do No Harm” 
• Morality: “Morals—Right and Wrong—Are Socially Constructed, and We Should Work for Justice” 
• Truth: “Science and Reason Alone Can Tell Us What Is True and Fix Our Problems” 
• Happiness: “Do What Makes You Happy, and Don’t Let Anyone Keep You from It” 
• Progress: “Be on the Right Side of History, Which Is Always Moving Toward More Liberty and Prosperity and Away from Superstition (Religion) and Oppression”

Michael Keller notes that each story correlates with answers to life’s biggest questions about our very existence and impacts views about societal issues including abortion, politics, sexuality and even child-rearing.  

“Cultural narratives are like a pair of glasses we have worn for so long that we’ve forgotten they exist,” Michael Keller writes. “We do not look at the glasses; we look through them. They are invisible lenses that shape everything we see.”  

Dedicating one chapter to each cultural narrative, The Stories We Live By examines how these stories are failing us, evaluates their effectiveness and compares and contrasts each with the Christian story. The final chapters are centered around helping readers understand how to apply the gospel story with our family, at work and with ourselves to determine how to engage culture without being consumed by it.   

“You can’t simply banish a cultural story like ‘money will make me happy’ by trying to ignore it,” writes Michael Keller. “You must displace it. You must shove it out and replace it with a story that’s more beautiful, more compelling and truer.”  

A supplemental six-session curriculum, The Stories We Live By Bible Study Guide, which includes a streaming video, will also release from Zondervan on Sept. 22, 2026.

July 2026 | LISLE, IL—An author with InterVarsity Press (IVP) for nearly a half century, J. I. Packer (1926–2020) was one of the most beloved and widely read Christian theologians of the twentieth century and was once named in Time magazine’s list of the 25 Most Influential Evangelicals in America. July 22, 2026 marks the date of his 100th birthday, and IVP is honored to carry on Packer’s legacy with two new editions: Knowing Christianity and Truth and Power.

Knowing Christianity: The Foundations of the Christian Faith and How They Shape Daily Life covers key elements of spiritual life, Christian living, and our ultimate end. Truth and Power: The Place of Scripture in the Christian Life explores how the Bible should shape every aspect of Christian discipleship.

Jon Boyd, IVP’s associate publisher and vice president of editorial, said, “On Packer’s hundredth birthday, it’s natural for us both to look back in gratitude for all he contributed to that century as well as to turn ahead in prayer and endeavor to press on up the path he pointed out. That path is marked by the Bible as chief among books, the center point of everything else we can say.”

The author of forty-seven books, as well as untold numbers of journal articles, book reviews, dictionary entries, and forewords, Packer’s prolific work, particularly his best-known book Knowing God, has impacted countless pastors, thought leaders, theologians, and authors. Billy Graham once said, “A hundred years from now only a handful of books written today will still be widely read and accepted as Christian classics. Dr. James I. Packer’s Knowing God may well prove to be one of them. A gifted theologian and writer, Dr. Packer has the rare ability to deal with profound and basic spiritual truths in a practical and highly readable way. This book will help every reader grasp in a fuller way one of the Bible’s greatest truths: that we can know God personally because God wants us to know him.”

Boyd noted how formative Knowing God has been in his own life and work: “In one of my first conversations with an InterVarsity Christian Fellowship campus staff worker when I was an undergrad, he pushed a copy of Knowing God across the table to me in the Michigan Union and said, ‘Let’s start with this.’ It was a great beginning. Packer’s wisdom sharpened my appetite for Christian theology, as it has done for countless others.”

Packer was born in a village outside Gloucester, England, on July 22, 1926. When he was seven, while being chased by a bully as he left school, Packer suffered a severe head injury in a collision with a van. Unable to participate in sports after the accident, Packer instead turned his attention to his love for reading. And when he turned eleven, Packer was gifted an old Oliver typewriter from his parents. Little did they know that their son would go on to craft every word of every one of his books on a typewriter, including Praying, A Quest for Godliness, Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God, Rediscovering Holiness, and more than forty others.

Packer’s time studying at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, became another formative experience for his future as a prolific author and theologian. During his years at school he attended lectures by C. S. Lewis, whose thought became an influential part of Packer’s life and work. While at Oxford he also committed his life to Christ at an evangelistic service sponsored by the campus InterVarsity chapter.

Packer left a lasting impression on those he interacted with on various projects. Bob Fryling, former publisher for IVP, recalled, “One day at lunch with some colleagues I asked him, ’Jim, how would you describe the uniqueness of IVP?‘ After a brief pause he said, ‘Some publishers tell you what to believe and other publishers tell you what you already believe, but IVP helps you to believe.‘ We were so grateful for not only his kind and generous affirmation, but we were a bit stunned that he had captured in a brief moment what indeed was integral to IVP’s vision and mission. He was a publisher’s dream!”

In addition to the new editions of Packer’s books, IVP has been sharing stories, quotes, and excerpts throughout the month of July. But Packer best sums up his life and legacy with these words from a Crossway article published in 2020:

“As I look back on the life that I have lived, I would like to be remembered as a voice—a voice that focused on the authority of the Bible, the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the wonder of his substitutionary sacrifice and atonement for our sins.

“I would like to be remembered as a voice calling Christian people to holiness and challenging lapses in Christian moral standards.

“I should like to be remembered as someone who was always courteous in controversy, but without compromise.

“I ask you to thank God with me for the way that he has led me, and I wish, hope, pray that you will enjoy the same clear leading from him—and the same help in doing the tasks that he sets you—that I have enjoyed.

“And if your joy matches my joy as we continue in our Christian lives, well . . . you will be blessed indeed.”
