Bellingham, WA — Lexham Press is pleased to announce the appointments of Ben Amundgaard as publisher and Todd Hains as associate publisher for acquisitions. Amundgaard and Hains assumed their new roles on December 12, 2022.

Lexham Press is an innovative Christian publishing house creating thoughtful Bible study materials, scholarly works, and pastoral resources. Part of Faithlife LLC, the maker of Logos Bible Software, Lexham Press is committed to excellent Christian publishing in service of the church.

Amundgaard and Hains assumed their new roles at Lexham following the departure of publisher Jesse Myers, who was recently named the incoming CEO of Baker Book House Company.

“Jesse and I started at Faithlife around the same time,” Amundgaard said. “It has been a privilege to work alongside Jesse all these years.

CAROL STREAM, Ill.—January 6, 2023—Tyndale House Publishers is sad to report the death of Dr. Philip W. Comfort on December 31, 2022, at the age of 72. Phil (as he was fondly known by all who knew him) was a member of the Bible editorial team at Tyndale House for 34 years, from 1984 until his retirement in 2018, serving as Senior Bible Reference Editor. He was also a member of the Bible Translation Committee for the Holy Bible, New Living Translation, serving for many years as New Testament Coordinating Editor.

Dr. Comfort was well known in the world of biblical scholarship as a world-class specialist and expert on the early manuscripts of the New Testament. He served as Professor of Greek and New Testament studies at Trinity School for Ministry and visiting professor of New Testament at Wheaton College. He wrote several comprehensive reference books, including New Testament Text and Translation Commentary (Tyndale House Publishers) and The Text of the Earliest New Testament Greek Manuscripts (Kregel Academic). He also served as General Editor for the Cornerstone Biblical Commentary series for Tyndale. Additionally, he and other scholars collaborated on several lay-oriented reference works published by Tyndale, such as Tyndale Bible Dictionary, The Complete Book of Who’s Who in the Bible, and Who’s Who in Christian History.

Dr. Comfort lived on Pawleys Island, South Carolina. He was preceded in death by his wife, Georgia Comfort, and is survived by his three sons, Jeremy, John, and Peter.

Since its founding in 1962, Tyndale House Publishers has been a voice to trust for generations of readers. Today, Tyndale is one of the largest independent Christian publishers in the world. Tyndale’s mission is to make the Bible accessible to as many people as possible in language that they can relate and respond to.

WESTMONT, IL—Christianity Today has released the winners of its 2023 Book Awards, and InterVarsity Press is pleased to announce that it received top honors in three categories: Church and Pastoral Leadership, Marriage and Family, and Politics and Public Life. Another IVP title received the Award of Merit in the Popular Theology category, and three IVP books were finalists in Biblical Studies, Culture and the Arts, and Politics and Public Life. 

“Each year, the Christianity Today Book Awards reviews a distinguished list of books in categories pertinent to the church,” said IVP president and publisher Terumi Echols. “We and others in our industry respect these awards due to the rigorous review that the content receives. It’s not a popularity contest. It honors what nourishes the soul, challenges the mind, moves the heart, and strengthens our walk as Christians.”

The IVP title that received the 2023 CT Book Award in the Church and Pastoral Leadership category is The Flourishing Pastor: Recovering the Lost Art of Shepherd Leadership by Tom Nelson. Pulling from his years of experience as a lead pastor and president of a nonprofit, Nelson offers pastors and ministry leaders a timely vision for leadership that incorporates in-depth biblical teaching and whole-life discipleship.

Steven Garber, senior fellow for vocation and the common good with the M. J. Murdock Charitable Trust, said, “The deepest, truest learning is always over the shoulder and through the heart. In The Flourishing Pastor we are drawn into Tom Nelson’s long labor of love—a vocation born of commitments to biblical theology and missional practice that have formed his work as a pastor among a particular people in a particular place, a vision for his congregation and his city. With surprising candor and humility rooted in an honest spirituality that seriously wrestles with the Word and the world together, this is a window into the mind and heart of someone who longs for the reality of an integral life for himself and for all of us. Every pastor I know would be graced by this apprenticeship in print, a book where words become flesh in the life of a good man who is also a good pastor.”

The 2023 CT Book Award in the Marriage and Family category went to Teach Your Children Well: A Step-by-Step Guide for Family Discipleship. Sarah Cowan Johnson unpacks how parents can have an active discipleship role in forming their children’s faith, with age-appropriate insights and strategies for different developmental stages. She shows how we can identify God moments, facilitate spiritual encounters, clarify emerging beliefs, and encourage new faith habits in our children.

“Sarah Cowan Johnson’s instincts are absolutely right: parents can be the most important pastoral presence in their child’s life,” said Jared Patrick Boyd, author of Imaginative Prayer. “Our children need something real to grab on to—from our own life with God, from their own encounters with God, and from the everyday moments when God is close. God is always very close to us. This book is a very practical guide helping parents facilitate the practice of encountering God in the tiny moments of everyday life. This book will absolutely help parents in the work of the spiritual accompaniment of their children.”

The top CT honor in the Politics and Public Life category was awarded to Beyond Racial Division: A Unifying Alternative to Colorblindness and Antiracism. Sociologist George Yancey offers an alternative approach to racial relations where all parties contribute and are mutually accountable to one another for societal well-being. He provides empirical rationale for how collaborative conversations in a mutual accountability model can reduce racial division. History and societal complexity mean that different participants may have different kinds of responsibility, but all are involved in seeking the common good for all to thrive. Avoiding unilateral decisions that close off dialogue, Yancey casts a vision for moving beyond racial alienation toward a lifestyle and movement of collaborative conversation and mutuality.

Mark DeYmaz, cofounder, president, and CEO of the Mosaix Global Network, said, “There is not a more theologically sound, empirically informed, well-reasoned, or rational voice addressing the complexities of race, class, and culture in America today than that of Dr. George Yancey. In Beyond Racial Division, he navigates nuance and effectively challenges readers to get beyond rhetoric to results in their engagement of diverse others.”

The IVP title that received the Award of Merit in the Popular Theology category is The Thrill of Orthodoxy: Rediscovering the Adventure of Christian Faith. “Trevin Wax shows that traditional orthodox Christianity might not be as glossy and glamorous as Christianity gone worldly, but it is ancient, majestic, global, and glorious,” said Michael F. Bird, academic dean and lecturer in New Testament at Ridley College in Melbourne, Australia. “It is a tried and tested alternative to the faddish and fragmentary fakes that masquerade as Christianity in some places. Trevin is not pushing dry doctrine but passing on fresh fire that is thousands of years old.”

The IVP books that were finalists for the 2023 CT Book Awards include The Samaritan Woman’s Story: Reconsidering John 4 After #ChurchToo by Caryn A. Reeder (Biblical Studies), A Supreme Love: The Music of Jazz and the Hope of the Gospel by William Edgar (Culture and the Arts), and What Are Christians For?: Life Together at the End of the World by Jake Meador (Politics and Public Life).

Echols said, “We are grateful to our authors for allowing us to work alongside them to bring their words and passions into fruition. Each gives the best of their hearts and minds in a desire to continue to breathe life into the church. Their words continue to challenge readers to think deeply about their faith and to navigate today’s culture with wisdom and grace.”

God doesn’t need you to meet all the needs, know all the answers, or to be superhuman. As Christians, we often confuse our creaturely limits with sin, sadly distorting many aspects of our lives.

MEMPHIS, TN. December 2022 — End Game Press is proud to announce that their recent children’s book, Fly High: Understanding Grief with God’s Help (End Game Press, Oct. 4, 2022, $19.99, 9781637970508), was recently named as a finalist in Christianity Today’s 2023 Book Awards. Titles were chosen for their significant impact to most likely shape evangelical life, thought, and culture.

While adults are most often able to verbalize how they feel, many children lack the vocabulary and understanding to explain their emotions. During difficult seasons, books can help shape the way children process and internalize life-changing events, and End Game Press is committed to publishing books that address these felt needs for families.

In EGP’s recent picture book, Fly High: Understanding Grief with God’s Help, best-selling author Michelle Medlock Adams and Grief Counselor Janet K. Johnson partnered together to write a book for children experiencing loss and grief. This story follows a young sister and brother who love watching a mama cardinal care for her babies, until the unthinkable happens – the mother bird dies. The siblings go through various stages of emotions associated with grief as they learn to laugh, love, and hope again.

Fly High teaches readers it’s okay to have the feelings they are having, and each new day holds the promise of a new beginning. There are two versions of this book—one with faith-based language for use in churches and Christian organizations, and one with nonreligious language for use in school settings, counseling offices, and hospitals. In addition to the story, the book includes discussion questions and words of encouragement for parents to talk through with their children.

“When children suffer loss or grief there are not always good resources to hand them,” says Victoria Duerstock, founder of End Game Press. “Whether it’s the loss of a family member, a pet, or a friend, having tools to walk children through the grieving process is essential.”

You can find the full list of titles included in Christianity Today’s 2023 Book Awards at www.ChristianityToday.com.

CAROL STREAM, Ill. (December 19, 2022)—Tyndale fiction is pleased to announce that Count the Nights by Stars by Michelle Shocklee is the Christianity Today 2023 Book Award winner in the fiction category. According to its website, Christianity Today selects “the books most likely to shape evangelical life, thought, and culture.”

Count the Nights by Stars is Michelle Shocklee’s second novel with Tyndale, following on the heels of Under the Tulip Tree. This historical time-slip novel explores how two women, connected across decades by an old scrapbook, uncover the truth behind an unsettling tragedy that took place at the Tennessee Centennial Exposition in 1897.

In response to this honor, Jan Stob, acquisitions director, shared, “We are so proud to partner with Michelle Shocklee in publishing her award-winning novel, Count the Nights by Stars. We knew she could strike a chord with readers by the strong response to her first novel with us, Under the Tulip Tree. Her stories are always well-researched and bring fresh light to issues that are both heartbreaking and current. I couldn’t be more pleased!”

Shocklee’s books tell stories set in Nashville, Tennessee. Count the Nights by Stars features events around the state’s 1897 centennial celebration with a second story line in 1961 during the growing Civil Rights Movement, as well as the waning years of the historic Maxwell House Hotel and its fascinating and tragic history. A reviewer for Publishers Weekly said, “Shocklee masterfully weaves mystery and romance in this spellbinding study of the horrors of xenophobia and the bravery of those who stand up to it. This is a timely and expertly crafted tale.”
