Grand Rapids, MI (July 16, 2026) — Petradi International Rights Services, ZDL Books, and Story Warren are thrilled to announce the Chinese-simplified language publication of the best-selling 4-volume Green Ember book series. The new Chinese language series, translated and published by ZDL Books in Beijing, is available now.

The Green Ember Series follows the adventures of rabbit siblings Heather and Picket as they get caught up in an epic struggle for rabbitkind’s liberation from the tyrannous preylords. Humor, heart, and hope anchor this series that centers on small rabbits battling to keep faith amid the chaos all around them.

What began as a tale improvised to share with his daughter has now turned into a series that has sold more than one million books and been translated into more than ten languages including Portuguese, Hungarian, Ukrainian, German, Slovak, and Czech. Grateful for the Petradi Rights team helping to bring this series to audiences worldwide, the author of the book series said, “I am delighted to share these special stories with Chinese readers. I’m grateful for the ways audiences around the world have embraced these tales. My aim is to inspire and delight and to serve readers well.”

Immensely popular in the United States, Story Warren CEO Josiah Smith said, “The Green Ember Series has resonated with readers all over the world, and we’re only beginning to bring these stories to new territories in translated editions. Now that the four main Green Ember books are available in Chinese, we hope they bring great joy, hope, and courage to readers there.”

ZDL Books chose this book series to translate not only because of its charm and how unique it is but also because of its significance in the Chinese market. They felt the Chinese children’s literature market was lacking this type of clean fantasy. The publisher told us, “Its charm lies not only in its exciting and tender plot but also in the endless vitality of the old traditional things and values. Readers can find new beauty in the old things, and in the new things, they can also see the lasting life of the old things. This set of books is like a key. It can open the dust-laden treasure in every reader’s heart, and it is also like a bridge connecting reality and people’s hearts.”

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — What if the Christian life was never intended to be lived alone? In his forthcoming book, Christ in You: Experiencing Intimacy with Jesus (Brookstone Publishing Group, July 21, 2026), author Gary York invites readers to rediscover one of Scripture’s most profound yet often overlooked truths: Jesus Christ lives within His followers and desires daily, intimate relationship with them.

Drawing from Scripture, personal stories, spiritual formation, global missions experience, entrepreneurship, and decades of walking with Christ, York presents a compelling vision of the Christian life centered on the apostle Paul’s declaration: “Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27).

“Many believers know about Jesus but long to experience His presence more deeply in everyday life,” York says. “This book explores how Christ’s indwelling presence reshapes our relationship with God, our identity, and our purpose.”

York brings a unique perspective to the conversation. A graduate of the Renovaré Institute with a PhD from Carnegie Mellon University, he has served internationally with Food for the Hungry, founded multiple technology companies, and completed six of the World Marathon Majors. His diverse experiences inform a message that is both deeply theological and remarkably practical.

The book has garnered endorsements from respected Christian leaders, including Collin Hansen, vice president and editor-in-chief of The Gospel Coalition, who writes:

“Revival could be in store as Christians and churches experience this intimate union with our Creator and Redeemer.”

Interview topics include:

• What does “Christ in you” actually mean?
• Why many Christians struggle to experience God’s presence
• Spiritual formation in everyday life
• Finding intimacy with Christ amid busy schedules
• Lessons learned from missions, entrepreneurship, and endurance sports
• The transformative power of union with Christ

Christ in You releases July 21, 2026, in paperback, hardcover, and ebook formats.

LISLE, IL | JULY 2026—The Martin Institute & the Dallas Willard Research Center (MIDWRC) at Westmont College honored two IVP titles as finalists for the 2026 Dallas Willard Book Award. The recognized books include From Aristotle to Christ by Louis Markos and Experiencing Scripture as a Disciple of Jesus by David Scott Ripper.

The annual Dallas Willard Book Award was created in 2015 to help place an enduring emphasis on the intellectual legacy of Willard by recognizing original work that furthers Dallas’s views of reality, knowledge, and Christian spiritual formation.

“We are grateful for the continuing legacy of Dallas Willard and the work of the Martin Institute & the Dallas Willard Research Center in keeping his influence at the forefront of research and publishing,” said Cindy Bunch, senior editor-at-large and IVP Formatio editor. “It’s gratifying to see these awards honoring both new books that delve into Willard’s teaching explicitly as well as recognition of scholars who publish more broadly in the related fields of philosophy and Christian formation.”

From Aristotle to Christ: How Aristotelian Thought Clarified the Christian Faith, also honored as a Credo Book Award winner, offers a journey through the work of Plato’s greatest student. Louis, a renowned scholar, demonstrates Aristotle’s often unacknowledged influence on the Christian faith. In Markos’s hands, Aristotle is far from an irrelevant ancient philosopher but is instead an important conversation partner for some of history’s greatest Christian thinkers and a thoughtful guide to today’s most challenging questions.

“The beauty of Louis Markos’s book is the way he introduces the novice to the wisdom of Aristotle to better equip Christianity with a defense of its foundational commitments,” said Matthew Barrett, research professor of theology at Trinity Anglican Seminary and author of The Reformation as Renewal. “In a secular age prone to skepticism, what student can afford not to read Markos and consider the myriad ways Aristotle can clarify what we believe and why?”

Markos is professor of English and scholar in residence at Houston Christian University, where he holds the Robert H. Ray Chair in Humanities. His many books include From Achilles to Christ, From Plato to Christ, Passing the Torch, and his most recent, My Apologetics Dinner Party. 

Experiencing Scripture as a Disciple of Jesus: Reading the Bible like Dallas Willard offers a unique pathway to deeper spiritual engagement, using Willard’s revolutionary approach to reading the Bible. Using primary source material and insights from Willard, Dave Ripper takes you on an immersive exploration of Scripture that mirrors the intellect of a philosopher and the heart of a mystic.

John Ortberg, founder of BecomeNew.com, said, “Dallas Willard has had a remarkable impact on an inordinate portion of the church. In this book, Dave Ripper helps guide us through how to not only read but also be shaped by the Scriptures that contain unique power to illumine the human condition.”

Jane Willard and Rebecca Willard Heatley, wife and daughter of Dallas Willard, said, “What a joy to see Dallas’s contagious love of Scripture spread to Dave Ripper and lead to his helpful method of seeking the living God ‘upon the sacred page.’ Thank you, Dave!”

Ripper is the lead pastor of Crossway Christian Church, a multi-congregational church in southern New Hampshire, focused on spiritual formation. He earned a doctor of ministry in spiritual direction from Fuller Theological Seminary and the Martin Institute & the Dallas Willard Research Center at Westmont College. He is coauthor of The Fellowship of the Suffering and serves as the chaplain for the Boston Bruins.

The Martin Institute and Dallas Willard Research Center, established at Westmont in 2011, assist Christian individuals and organizations in pursuing spiritual and moral transformation modeled after Christ.

Founded in 1947 as an extension of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA, InterVarsity Press serves those in the university, the church, and the world by publishing thoughtful Christian books that equip and encourage people to follow Jesus as Savior and Lord in all of life.

CAROL STREAM, IL – Tyndale is celebrating the remarkable impact and expanding reach of the Nueva Traducción Viviente (NTV) throughout Latin America. In recent years, the NTV has become one of the region’s most widely used and appreciated Bible translations. Momentum for the Nueva Traducción Viviente accelerated over the past year, with international sales increasing 72% in the last 12 months, demonstrating growing demand and expanding reach across Spanish-speaking markets. It has reached millions of readers with a clear, faithful, and accessible rendering of Scripture.

This growth has been fueled in part by the success of editions such as Biblia Inspira (Inspire Bible), Filament-enabled Bibles, and the Biblia de estudio del diario vivir (Life Application Study Bible), which provide readers with innovative tools and resources for deeper engagement with Scripture. Beyond strong sales, church leaders across Latin America point to the NTV’s role in helping a new generation connect with God’s Word through language that is both accessible and faithful to the biblical text.

“The NTV Bible has revolutionized our work with young people. Through its modern and clear language, we ensure that the Word is not only heard but understood—and it is in that understanding where true transformation begins,” said Paolo Lacota, youth pastor of CFA Church in Asunción, Paraguay. “Every time we teach God’s Word, we send a message to the future: we plant seeds in a generation that will reach places we may never see, but that will be touched by the eternal power of God.”

The NTV Bible has also marked a milestone in the evangelical Christian community in Colombia. “Its clear, simple, and approachable language has allowed God’s Word to be understood more easily,” shared David Pabón, Director of CLC Colombia in Bogotá. “The NTV has not only facilitated reading but has also contributed to renewed enthusiasm for the Bible, strengthening faith and Christian formation in new generations.”

More than 30 experts in the Bible, theology, linguistics, and related fields contributed to the translation, carefully crafting a Spanish text that is understandable throughout Latin America while remaining faithful to the original biblical languages.

“We are filled with joy to see how the Nueva Traducción Viviente is transforming lives in Latin America,” said Peter Cerra, Senior Director of International Publishing and Sales. “Our commitment has always been to provide an accurate translation, while also being understandable and pleasant to read for today’s audience. Seeing its impact in so many different contexts is deeply encouraging.”

At the heart of the NTV’s growth is a commitment to helping people understand and engage with God’s Word.  “Our desire is that people not only read the Bible but truly understand it and are transformed through their encounter with the Word of God. It is a true privilege to see how God uses the Nueva Traducción Viviente, in partnership with so many churches and faithful believers across the Spanish-speaking world, to touch hearts and draw people to Himself,” said Amy Simpson, Publisher, Bibles, Kids & Spanish.

Tyndale remains committed to serving Spanish-speaking communities around the world by supporting the continued distribution of the NTV and helping readers engage more deeply with Scripture. For more information about the Nueva Traducción Viviente, please visit BibliaNTV.com.

“Made Whole” Offers Biblical Healing for Couples Navigating Pornography, Betrayal Trauma, and Broken Intimacy

DALLAS, Texas | July 7, 2026 — XO Marriage, a leading faith-based marriage ministry helping couples thrive through every stage of their relationship, has released Made Whole: Healing, Wholeness, and Holiness in a Sex-Saturated World, a four-session video course and companion guide from Joshua and Hope Broome, available at no cost at XOMarriage.com.

The release reflects XO Marriage’s shift to a fully donation-supported model, removing financial barriers so any couple, regardless of income or location, can access the help they need. The conviction behind it is simple: No matter what you have done, or what has been done to you, your marriage is not beyond hope. In fact, it could become stronger after brokenness than it ever was before.

Joshua Broome spent six years as one of the most recognized names in the pornography industry. More than a decade removed from that world, he is a marriage advocate, speaker, and author, married ten years to Hope and raising four sons in Dallas. Together, the Broomes speak from a place few can. They have lived the brokenness, and they have lived the redemption.

The need is real. According to the Barna Group, 54% of practicing Christians admit to viewing pornography at least occasionally. Within church communities, Pure Desire Ministries puts that number at 75% of men and 40% of women. Countless couples are sitting in silence, carrying wounds their marriages were never meant to bear alone. Made Whole was built for them.

“Every marriage today is living in a spiritual war zone,” said Joshua Broome. “Pornography, comparison, secrecy, and temptation are not random struggles. They are strategic assaults on your intimacy, your unity, and your covenant. Too many couples are fighting alone, drowning in shame, and wondering if healing is even possible. The devastation is real. But so is hope. We have experienced the redemptive power of Jesus to take a marriage that was once shattered and make it stronger, deeper, and more honest than ever before. That is what we want for every couple who goes through Made Whole.”

The course moves couples through four sessions: The War for Holiness, The Gospel and the Wounds of Betrayal, Covenant Forgiveness and Communication, and Redeemed Intimacy, all built around the Broomes’ four-step framework for rebuilding trust: honesty, consistency, safety, and intimacy.

Each session pairs with the Made Whole Companion Guide, which creates space for real conversations, honest confession, and lasting transformation. With discussion prompts and a leader facilitation guide, it works in a living room or a Sunday small group. The guide helps couples fight the spiritual battle together, move from shame into transparency, practice covenant forgiveness, communicate with grace, and build rhythms that protect and deepen connection.

“Joshua and Hope have walked through real brokenness and real restoration, and they bring that hard-won wisdom to every session,” said Jimmy Witcher, president of XO Marriage. “The Christ who forgives you is the same Christ who restores you. That is the promise at the heart of this guide.”

Made Whole joins XO Marriage’s growing library of no-cost courses on communication, conflict resolution, finances, and more, alongside books, webinars, Marriage Intensives, and Vision Retreats.

To access Made Whole and all no-cost courses, create your account at XOMarriage.com.

About Joshua and Hope Broome: 
Joshua Broome knows firsthand that the Christ who forgives you is the same Christ who restores you. He spent six years as one of the most recognized names in the pornography, more than a decade later, he and his wife Hope bring hard-won wisdom and honest faith to couples carrying wounds their marriages were never meant to bear alone. Their message is simple: no matter what you have done, or what has been done to you, healing is possible. They serve with XO Marriage, where they created Made Whole: Healing, Wholeness, and Holiness in a Sex-Saturated World, a no-cost course and companion guide built for every couple sitting in silence, wondering if their marriage is too far gone. It is not. Made Whole is available at no cost at XOMarriage.com.

Funded entirely by donor generosity, XO Marriage offers no-cost courses alongside books, webinars, marriage intensives, vision retreats, and church partnerships, rooted in the belief that marriage is a covenant designed by God to work.

Releasing Tuesday, July 14th, Hodder Faith is introducing three new volumes in the Hodder Bible Commentary series:  Esther by K. A. Ellis, 1&2 Chronicles by Peter Lau, and Psalms 1–41 by Benjamin Sargent. Each book offers fresh, thoughtful insight into Scripture, helping readers engage familiar texts with renewed clarity and confidence. 

The Hodder Bible Commentary is a fifty‑volume series that places the full Anglicised NIV text alongside accessible exposition. Written by contributors from a wide range of cultural and church backgrounds, the series brings together scholarship and pastoral sensitivity to show how the Bible continues to speak meaningfully into the complexities of modern life. It is designed for anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of Scripture, whether preparing a sermon, leading a study group, or reading at home. 

In Esther, K. A. Ellis trace’s themes of providence, identity, hiddenness, fear, boldness, and dramatic reversal. She draws readers into the wider biblical story of exile and covenant promise, showing how God sustains his people even when his presence feels hidden. Her commentary speaks gently and directly to Christians facing uncertainty or hostility today and points to Christ as the true Deliverer. 

Peter Lau’s 1&2 Chronicles invites readers to see the book as a theological compass rather than a historical appendix. Chronicles retell Israel’s past with purpose, encouraging worship, renewing identity, and restoring trust in God’s promises after devastation. Lau highlights how these themes find their fulfilment in Christ and how they continue to resonate far beyond their original setting. 

In Psalms 1–41, Benjamin Sargent guides readers through some of Scripture’s most formative prayers. These psalms give voice to trust in God through lament, praise, and petition, shaping the worship and imagination of God’s people across generations. Sargent combines new research with historic wisdom, encouraging readers to discover the depth and beauty of the Psalms and to join the ancient cry of adoration: “Glory.” 

Readers can explore these new volumes, along with the rest of the Hodder Bible Commentary series, at hodderbiblecommentary.com. 

About the Hodder Bible Commentary Series
The Hodder Bible Commentary spans fifty volumes and four million words, offering readable exposition of every book of the Bible. With the full Anglicized NIV text interwoven throughout, each volume is designed for clarity and depth, making it a valuable resource for pastors, teachers, small‑group leaders, and all adult readers seeking to understand Scripture more fully.

When Thoughts Get Stuck offers a compassionate path forward for Christians living with OCD 

“Written with pastoral care and the warmth of personal experience, Will and Thea do a superb job of providing readers with practical tools for breaking cycles of rumination. This empowering book is a must read for church leaders and for those who struggle with OCD and obsessive thoughts.” — Cheryl Donaldson, Psychologist, MA, LMFT, LCPC 

On Tuesday, July 14th, Hodder Faith is releasing When Thoughts Get Stuck, a gentle and deeply encouraging guide for Christians whose minds feel caught in loops of fear, doubt, or persistent “what‑ifs.” The book is written by Reverand Will Van Der Hart and Thea Joshi, both of whom live with OCD, and together they offer a rare combination of lived experience, psychological understanding, and spiritual wisdom. 

When Thoughts Get Stuck brings to light the often-hidden struggle of obsessive thinking, especially when it becomes intertwined with Christian belief. Van Der Hart and Joshi help readers understand what OCD truly is, how it shapes thought patterns, and why cycles of guilt, fear, and reassurance can feel so overwhelming. Their writing is warm and clear, guiding readers toward a renewed sense of God’s love and a more compassionate relationship with their own minds. Each chapter includes spiritual encouragement, expert‑informed guidance, and a prayer to support readers as they move toward peace. 

The authors explore how OCD mindsets can become entangled with biblical principles, how persistent guilt and condemnation can be released, and how obsessions and compulsions can be navigated with practical, grounded tools. Their approach offers hope to Christians with OCD and to the people who care for them, creating a space where faith and mental health can be understood together with both honesty and grace. 

Reverand Will Van Der Hart is a Well‑being Chaplain, speaker, and mental‑health advocate known for his work supporting Christians experiencing anxiety, OCD, and intrusive thoughts. 

Thea Joshi is a mental‑health communicator and writer whose work focuses on compassionate, faith‑informed approaches to psychological wellbeing.
