New dates announced for Fall 2020 Christian Products Expo

August 3, 2020 by Sheri Toomb

LARGO, Fla.— As we navigate these challenging times, CPE is looking ahead to the future. While plans are still moving forward, the dates for CPE have been pushed back a week due to the Atlanta Gift Mart. The Mart, originally scheduled for July, moved their dates directly on top of the CPE show dates, forcing CPE to make this move in order to accommodate the gift vendors already scheduled to attend the CPE show. The new show dates are August 23 – 25, 2020 at the Chase Center on the Riverfront in Wilmington, DE.

“In these unprecedented times, we need this show to bring people together now more than ever,” said Christy Dollins, Trade Show Assistant Coordinator.

Dollins has been closely monitoring Delaware’s plans to reopen. Delaware is currently in Phase 2 of reopening and working toward Phase 3. Dollins is working with the Chase Center on procedures at the show to ensure the safety and health of all attendees and is hopeful that by August 23 there will be even less restrictions. At this time, there is no intention of cancelling the show.

CPE is FREE to attend and offers retailers a generous reimbursement program, based on the number of orders written and presentations received at the show. For this show only, CPE has chosen to decrease the required number of orders for reimbursement, as well as add a $50 travel allowance to the lowest tier. This is to help offset retailers’ travel costs to ensure they are able to attend and have the means for order writing at the show.

To learn more about CPE updates, visit cpeshow.com.

The Munce Group was founded in October 1991 and currently serves nearly 220 member retailers across the US. The mission of the Munce Group is to provide member retailers with the highest quality Christian materials and services to equip independent Christian retailers for the work of their ministry and business. Munce Group also hosts Christian Product Expo (CPE). CPE is the only industry trade show that is free to attend and provides a generous reimbursement program. Visit www.cpeshow.com.

Tyndale House announces agreement with Ann White and Courage for Life to publish Women’s Study Bible

August 3, 2020 by Sheri Toomb

Carol Stream, Illinois (July 30, 2020) – Tyndale House Publishers (@tyndalehouse) has announced that it has signed an agreement with Ann White and Courage for Life to create a study Bible for women. Scheduled to release March 8, 2022, the Bible will be a vital resource for all women, but particularly those who have had traumatic experiences.

“We are thrilled to join Courage for Life in this vital project to craft a new Bible for women. But not just a Bible for women. It’s especially for women who often feel lost, last, and least; in the toughest places and looking for help,” said Tyndale’s Jim Jewell. “We commend the strong ministry of Ann White and Courage for Life, and we consider it a privilege to be part of it through the development of this study Bible.”

Many female readers will encounter the ministry edition of this Bible through the Courage for Life prison ministry. However, this book is not just for incarcerated women, as any woman who uses this Bible will find herself growing in her knowledge of God’s Word and its transformative power.

The women’s study Bible will feature the following:

  • Sixty-six book introductions
  • A study feature that will engage the reader and encourage the practice of following the Pray, Observe, Interpret, and Apply approach to Bible study
  • Study notes
  • Wide margins
  • Listen to the Word feature directing readers to listen to Scripture
  • Go Deeper (QR code access to video and audio)
  • Visual Timeline
  • Women of courageous faith interrupters featuring Bible and contemporary characters
  • Topical index
  • Bible infographics/maps

About Ann White and Courage For Life
Ann White is an internationally known author, speaker, and passionate Bible teacher. She founded her global ministry, Courage for Life, out of a calling to share with others how God and His Word brought restoration to her life and marriage. Having personally experienced God’s grace, salvation, and the life-changing power of the Bible, Ann’s desire is to extend this same love, mercy, and encouragement to others, so they too may be reconciled to God. Because they believe God’s Word is central in finding courage, Ann and the Courage For Life team desire to equip believers to be better students and teachers of the Bible. And while it’s their primary objective to see individuals have the courage to change their own life, they realize the benefits of that change are never exclusively for the individual, but for the common good of all people and for the glory of God. They lead Courage For Life studies and conferences both domestically and internationally. Through books, Bible studies, and teaching resources, the Courage For Life team is dedicated to helping others find the courage to change, develop the courage to lead, and have the courage to serve. Ann White and Courage for Life are represented by Dave Schroeder at WTA Media, LLC.

August 3, 2020 by Sheri Toomb

Surrendered—A Devotional to Help You Let Go & Live Like Jesus

(Nashville, Tenn.)—If COVID-19 has taught us anything so far, it’s that we are not in control. When life gets hard, aspects of the future are uncertain, and we’re at the mercy of other’s decisions, we want more power over the situation. However, those are precisely the times when we need to learn how to surrender, just like Jesus did.

In Surrendered: 40 Devotions to Help You Let Go & Live Like Jesus, a devotional book inspired by Barb Roose’s Bible study Surrendered: Letting Go & Living Like Jesus, readers are invited to embrace the life-giving power of surrender as they learn to let  go and live like Jesus—fully trusting God’s power, presence, promises, and provision in their life.

Each devotion features a Scripture, a big idea, a biblical or personal story, a letting go principle, personal reflection, and application questions. Each devotion will challenge you to let go as you draw closer to Jesus than ever before.

  • Includes forty devotions inspired by Jesus’s forty days in the wilderness with devotions such as: Letting Go of Expectations, Letting Go of Negativity, Letting Go of Fear and many more!
  • Devotions give readers inspiration to find peace in their own lives.

Revell celebrates 150 years in publishing

July 27, 2020 by Sheri Toomb

Ada, Mich. (July 22, 2020)—Baker Publishing Group, which purchased Fleming H. Revell in 1992, is pleased to announce Revell’s 150th anniversary.

In 1870, Fleming Hewitt Revell established the Fleming H. Revell Company in Chicago, Illinois. Since that time, Revell has undergone numerous changes but continues to maintain its focus on providing resources that help bring the Christian faith to everyday life.

Revell began his career by printing and publishing Sunday school papers by his famous brother-in-law, Dwight L. Moody. This publishing venture quickly expanded, and within thirty years the fledgling company became the largest American publisher of religious books, with offices in Chicago, New York, Toronto, London, and Edinburgh.

During the early years, Revell’s author list included such thought-provoking and cutting-edge leaders as R. A. Torrey, C. H. Spurgeon, Henry Drummond, and Hannah Whitall Smith, whose book The Christian’s Secret of a Happy Life (1875) remains in print.

After the turn of the century, Revell began publishing more general-market titles that included works from Catherine Marshall, Charles L. Allen, Dale Evans Rogers, Florence Littauer, Dr. Willard Harley, Pat Williams, Holley Gerth, and Emily P. Freeman. Revell’s name has also become synonymous with New York Times bestsellers with works such as Dr. Kevin Leman’s Have a New Kid by Friday, Don Piper’s 90 Minutes in Heaven, Mary Beth Chapman’s Choosing to See, and Lisa Bevere’s Without Rival.

During the early 1990s, Revell began gaining traction with their fiction publishing. Now fiction makes up 50 percent of Revell’s new titles from bestselling and award-winning authors such as Ted Dekker, Jane Kirkpatrick, Suzanne Woods Fisher, Irene Hannon, Ann H. Gabhart, Susan May Warren, and Lynette Eason.

Revell’s desire to introduce fresh new voices to the fiction world is being met with considerable success as these emerging writers are being awarded for their fresh content and creativity. Shawn Smucker recently won his second Christianity Today Book Award for Light from Distant Stars, and Erin Bartels’s We Hope for Better Things and Susie Finkbeiner’s All Manner of Things were named Michigan Notable Book Award winners for 2020.

As Revell celebrates this milestone anniversary, it continues to strive for excellence and to provide resources that offer practical help, lead to personal growth, and speak to the heart of the reader. “Revell is part of the heart of Baker Publishing Group,” said president Dwight Baker. “We were honored to purchase it and are honored to help in its success. I pray that we can continue to help uphold the long legacy of Revell.”


Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group, publishes books that help bring the Christian faith to everyday life. Whether through fiction, Christian living, self-help, marriage, family, or youth books, each Revell publication reflects relevance, integrity, and excellence.

Baker Publishing Group publishes high-quality writings that represent historic Christianity and serve the diverse interests and concerns of evangelical readers.

Hendrickson Publishers and the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts to Publish Third-Century “New Testament Papyri Facsimiles”

July 27, 2020 by Sheri Toomb

PEABODY, MA—In a historic collaboration, Hendrickson Publishers—in partnership with the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts—will publish a deluxe facsimile edition of New Testament papyrus codices written in the third century. The facsimiles and a separate transcription volume are scheduled to be released to the public in November 2020.

This collection—created by the groundbreaking digitization work of the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts, under the direction of Dr. Daniel B. Wallace—updates the previously published edition, which was produced from 1933 to 1937.

This New Testament Papyri facsimile collection brings three of the oldest manuscripts of the Bible to a modern audience. The partially preserved papyrus codices P45, P46, and P47 are dated from the third century and contain passages from all four Gospels, the book of Acts, the Pauline Epistles, the book of Hebrews, and the book of Revelation, making them some of the most significant witnesses to early Christian Scripture that exist today. This collection bears heavily on our current understanding of the origins of the biblical text.

The culmination of the project is the production of a museum-quality print facsimile that allows the Scriptures to come alive like never before. It captures the ancient beauty of the text: its scars and handwritten scripts; its age and timeless significance.

Printed in duplicate against white and black backgrounds, the high-resolution images in this facsimile edition reproduce the fragmented papyri in stunning clarity at their actual size, offering scholars and students of New Testament manuscripts an unparalleled encounter with these crucial witnesses to the Bible’s textual history.

Coming November 2020 / 9 x 12 inches / ISBN 978-1-61970-844-0 / Retail $399.00.

The Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts, founded by Dr. Daniel B. Wallace, utilizes emerging technologies to preserve and study Greek New Testament manuscripts. They have collaborated with more than forty institutions across four continents to produce thousands of images of New Testament manuscripts. Learn more at www.csntm.org.

Tyndale House Publishers acquires memoir of 15-year-old entrepreneur, comfort animal and rescue advocate, and owner of Peacebunny Island

July 27, 2020 by Sheri Toomb

How a Minnesota teenager is training rabbits to become comfort animals on his own private island

CAROL STREAM, ILL. (July 27, 2020)—Tyndale House Publishers (@tyndalehouse) today announced that it has acquired the memoir of 15-year-old Caleb Smith, the visionary behind Peacebunny Island and related educational nonprofit. Peacebunny Island: The Extraordinary Journey of a Boy and His Comfort Rabbits, and How They’re Teaching Us about Hope and Kindness has an anticipated publication date of March 2021. In this compelling memoir, Smith tells his story—how, at 8 years old, he began mobilizing youth to care for rescued rabbits and rare heritage breeds, and how his vision grew until, at age 14, he acquired his own private island on the Mississippi River. This 22-acre sanctuary called Peacebunny Island, along with its other nearby islands, provide the secluded summer setting to train rabbits and youth to share “hope and hoppiness.”

From hosting his first bunny birthday party in the neighborhood to purchasing a houseboat he’d need to learn to pilot, to finding an unknown river island to devote to animal rescue efforts, Caleb’s coming of age story includes a collection of adventures as he overcame challenges as a young entrepreneur. Dan Strone of Trident Media Group brokered the deal for world rights.

“This story had me hooked from the first page,” says Sarah Atkinson, associate publisher of Tyndale Momentum. “As an animal lover, I was fascinated by Caleb’s adventures while he sought to preserve rare rabbits and some rescues along the way who help children, veterans, senior citizens, and communities who are hurting. But Peacebunny Island is more than an animal story: it’s the odyssey of a remarkable young man committed to doing what he can to make the world more compassionate toward animals and to each other, inviting readers to change their world, one interaction at a time. Peacebunny Island is charming, funny, wise, and inspiring; it will bring goodness into the world at a time when we desperately need stories of hope to warm our hearts.”

Executive publisher Jan Long Harris says, “Peacebunny Island is the inspiring story of an extraordinary boy living out his calling to increase the world’s supply of kindness, happiness, and hope. After reading about Caleb and his comfort bunnies, even the most hardened cynics are likely to find themselves grinning with joy and wonder. What a privilege to publish this book!”

Every so often someone comes along to remind us that people with character, decency, and goodness still exist. Smith, who lives with his mom and dad outside Minneapolis, is a living example of this—running his own business with the goal of helping those in need and following his heart to make the world a kinder, more compassionate place. Just this year, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Caleb received a call from an organization that operates 46 senior communities across the Midwest. Ordinarily they would be making plans for Easter celebrations for thousands of older adult residents. But social distancing and increasing isolation forced them to look elsewhere for a way to share the joy of the holiday and to bring comfort during these uncertain times. They reached out to Caleb for help. The teenager, whose normally busy Easter season had also been up-ended, knew what to do.

Enter Lionardo da Vinci, Fudge, Willow, Tater Tot, Morris, and Thumbelina—and a host of other comfort rabbits, part of the larger colony that Caleb refers to as the Peacebunnies, who visit birthday parties, wedding receptions, and Easter egg hunts.  But their main gift is helping people who are looking for warmth and calm in the saddest and loneliest times of their lives. With their help, Caleb pulled together a team to bring the rabbits to porches and windows and to create uplifting videos specifically for those in hospice care. Caleb had a simple message for eager senior home executives: Together let’s share hope and hoppiness! Kindness always wins.

This heartwarming, family-oriented memoir is one of those rare books that feeds America’s insatiable appetite for inspiring stories and reassures us about the character of the next generation. With the same kind of hopeful message as R. J. Palacio’s Wonder, John Grogan’s Marley & Me, and the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, Peacebunny Island reminds us of the important lessons that we often seem to forget.

The release of Peacebunny Island will be buoyed by a national marketing and publicity campaign.
