Carol Stream, Ill. (January 22, 2021) — Tyndale House Publishers (@tyndalehouse) announced today that Dr. Derwin L. Gray, author of The Good Life and the founding and lead pastor of Transformation Church (www.TransformationChurch.tc), will publish his next book (yet untitled) with Tyndale Momentum.

In this groundbreaking book, Derwin will address what the Bible says about healing racial divides. He will take readers on a grand tour of the Bible, showing how God has always desired a multiethnic and diverse family that serves as a sign and foretaste of his Kingdom on earth by being communities of reconciliation, mission, and love. The gospel is bigger and better than we often realize. God not only forgives our sins, but he creates a family with different color skins to reflect the new heavens and new earth. It is a beautiful and compelling vision of a multicolored, multiethnic church that is characterized by humility, a good story, peace, and worship of the living God.

“We could not be more delighted to publish Dr. Gray,” said Jon Farrar, senior acquisitions director for Tyndale Momentum. “We desperately need a thorough exploration of what the Bible says about persistent racial divides, and Derwin delivers that in his next book. Dr. Gray is not only an influential and empathetic Bible teacher, he also founded a multiethnic church. He knows how to put these biblical truths into practice. We are thrilled to partner with Derwin on this seminal book.”

“I have watched the racial divide in our country widen,” said Derwin Gray. “I was not planning to write this book, but the critical nature of this historic moment would not let me escape its calling. I am excited to be writing this book so I can share with others the practical tools of how Jesus and his gospel-vision of love, grace, and reconciliation can heal our racial divide. I am thankful to Tyndale for giving me this opportunity, and I am eager to begin our partnership.”

Derwin Gray is represented by Alex Field at The Bindery.

(Nashville, Tenn.)—W Publishing Group, an imprint of Thomas Nelson, today announced The Rock, the Road and the Rabbi: My Journey into the Heart of Scriptural Faith and the Land Where It All Began by Kathie Lee Gifford with Rabbi Jason Sobel, has sold more than 500,000 copies in print, audio and digital formats.

“The journey of faith Kathie Lee Gifford shares in The Rock, the Road and the Rabbi and the revelatory insight into Hebrew language, culture, and heritage shared by Rabbi Jason Sobel have opened many readers’ eyes to a deeper understanding of God and the Bible,” said Damon Reiss, vice president and publisher of W Publishing Group. “It’s fantastic to see this story continue to resonate and inspire new readers every day.”

The Rock, the Road and the Rabbi, released in March 2018 was an instant New York Times bestseller. As a lifelong student of Scripture, Gifford has always desired a deeper understanding of God’s Word and a deeper knowledge of God Himself. But it wasn’t until she began studying the biblical texts in their original Hebrew and Greek—along with actually hiking the ancient paths of Israel, guided by Rabbi Jason Sobel—that she found the fulfillment of those desires. The Rock, the Road, and the Rabbi chronicles this journey through Israel.

“It’s deeply humbling to see this book get into the hands of those who may have never been to the Holy Land and who may never get a chance to walk where Jesus walked,” said Gifford. “I pray this book continues to ignite readers to start their own Rabbinical studies of the Bible.”

“I am honored to have written this book with Kathie Lee and humbled that so many people have been impacted by it,” said Rabbi Sobel. “My hope for those who have or will read The Rock, the Road, & the Rabbi is that by seeing the Bible in HD, they would fall more in love with Jesus and the Bible. I also hope that seeing the amazing connections between the Old and New Testament will spark a deeper hunger for the Word and a desire to delve deeper into the Hebraic roots of our faith.”

W Publishing Group released Kathie Lee Gifford’s most recent book, It’s Never Too Late: Make the Next Act of Your Life the Best Act of Your Life in December 2020. The imprint will release Rabbi Jason Sobel’s Mysteries of the Messiah: Unveiling Divine Connections from Genesis to Today in March.

• Knowledge,
• Discretion,
• Discernment, and

If we desire to possess these qualities, we must make a commitment to a deeper understanding and implementation of these values in our daily lives.

Critically-Acclaimed Series “Every Moment Holy” to Release Volume II: Death, Grief, & Hope on February 12th for the Lenten Season

Nashville, TN – Rabbit Room Press is releasing a brand new volume of EVERY MOMENT HOLY, titled Death, Grief, & Hope. This new book of prayers and liturgies releasing in February is written for seasons of dying and grieving. The book contains over 100 prayers including those for “the Scattering of Ashes,” “the Loss of a Spouse,” “the Wake of a National Tragedy,” “Embracing Both Joy & Sorrow,” and many more.

EVERY MOMENT HOLY was written as a series of liturgies and prayers for the ordinary events of daily life. Authored by Douglas McKelvey and illustrated by Ned Bustard, the project began as a single hardcover volume, released in 2017, and a pocket edition of that same volume, released in 2020. On February 12, Rabbit Room Press is releasing EVERY MOMENT HOLY VOLUME II: Death, Grief, & Hope. This new book of prayers and liturgies are written for seasons of dying and grieving and will arrive in time for the Lenten season.

“These prayers are ways of reminding us that our lives are filled with sacred purpose and eternal hopes even when, especially when, suffering and pain threaten to overwhelm us,” says Rabbit Room Executive Director Pete Peterson. “It’s hoped that the liturgies in the Every Moment Holy series will serve as prayers to encourage readers in practicing mindfulness of the constant presence of God and draw them toward greater recognition of the eternal echoes resounding in every moment of our lives.”

Featured in a 2-part series on FamilyLife Today, Every Moment Holy author Douglas McKelvey says of the book, “These prayers and liturgies are offered in light of eternal hope—encouraging us to give ourselves more fully to the experience of our present sorrows in light of those unshakeable joys to come, to better learn what it means to nurture, serve, encourage, and carry one another, and ultimately to reclaim a greater sense that these journeys of dying, caretaking, and grieving are holy moments to be experienced in communion with God, and in fellowship with one another, just as any other facet of our discipleship.”

Every Moment Holy will be available February 12th, 2021 through Rabbit Room Press and www.EveryMomentHoly.com.

BELLINGHAM, Wash., Jan. 11, 2021 – Data compiled by Faithlife, makers of integrated church technology products including Logos Bible Software, in the Year-End Song & Sermon Report provides insight into the worship songs, sermon topics and Scriptures most prevalent in churches across North America throughout 2020 and during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The 2020 Faithlife data highlights the relevancy of church leaders in meeting the needs of their congregants and community during a difficult year,” said Bob Pritchett, co-founder and CEO of Faithlife. “The words of the top worship songs and most used topics of the sermons were speaking to the issues of the day in order to offer comfort among the chaos.”

Worship Song Trends

The most popular worship song in 2020 was “Way Maker” by Nigerian gospel singer Sinach, according to the data from Faithlife Proclaim, Faithlife’s church presentation software.

“Way Maker” reached its peak popularity with Proclaim users the weekend of March 22, 2020, when almost 7% of all worship presentations included the song. “Build My Life” by Pat Barrett (the top song in 2019) was the second most popular, followed by “10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)” by Matt Redman.

An analysis of songs bringing comfort to churches during the initial months of the COVID-19 pandemic shows an interesting mix of modern and historic hymns such as “It is Well with My Soul” and “’Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus” as well as “His Mercy Is More,” by Matt Boswell and Matt Papa. Other new songs on the list include “Goodness of God,” released in early 2019 by Bethel Music and Jenn Johnson, “King of Kings” by Hillsong Worship, and “See a Victory” by Elevation Worship.

Early in April, during the beginning stages of the COVID-19 pandemic and in anticipation of Easter, topics of ​fear, prayer, faith, suffering, comfort, grief, stress, and church ​were all trending.

Government, justice, freedom, anger, ​and ​judgment peaked in the summer months when there was a wave of civil unrest, including protests and riots following the death of George Floyd. By fall, church fellowship, service, church leadership, work, a​nd ​election w​ere most trending with peace a​nd ​hope having the largest overall sermon trend of the year with peak popularity in December, the season of Advent.

Media Associates International announces new dates for the LittWorld global publishing conference in Hungary. The conference will be held April 24-29, 2022—six months later than previously announced.

“Holding the conference in April 2022 offers many advantages,” MAI President John Maust said. “It will allow more time for participants to receive the Covid-19 vaccine, to regain their confidence in international travel, and to begin to recover from financial hardship caused by the pandemic.”

The decision comes with full support from the MAI-Europe host team and local chair Kornel Herjeczcki of Harmat Publishers in Budapest, who believe the April 2022 dates will result in a stronger participation by publishing staff and writers from all the world regions.

Except for the dates, plans remain the same for the coming LittWorld. Celebrated author Philip Yancey will be the keynote speaker, and the conference will be held at Hotel Azur on Lake Balaton, the largest lake in Central Europe, 60 miles from Budapest.  This will be the first LittWorld in continental Europe.

More than 200 publishing staff and writers from 40-plus countries are expected at the conference, which will have as its theme: Stronger Together: Publishing Hope Beyond Crisis.

“The pandemic has radically changed the world and work of global Christian publishers and writers,” Maust said. “How can we persevere and excel in this new environment? What is God saying to us? What should we be doing differently? How can we more effectively serve our readers? LittWorld 2022 will give us an opportunity to meet and consider these questions together.”

Maust added, “Conference plenary sessions and small group workshops will be interactive in nature. Ideas, experiences, and best practices will be shared. New friendships and networks will form. Needs will be bathed in personal and corporate prayer. In the process, participants will grow stronger together in their ministry of the published word, and countless readers will be the spiritual beneficiaries.”

Leading up to the conference in April 2022, MAI will hold virtual meetings and a writing contest tied to the conference theme.

Participants from 94 countries have attended the LittWorld conference since it began in 1986. The previous LittWorld 2018 conference in Singapore gathered more than 250 Christian publishing staff and writers from 52 countries.

Through LittWorld, MAI has seen publishing houses born; new books, magazines, and podcasts conceived; and skills refined for more effective communication. Inevitably, participants take away a new or reinforced commitment to produce content by writers in the local heart language and culture:

• “I have rarely been as inspired by anything related to my work as I was by the time with the people who gathered [at LittWorld].” –Jeff Crosby, publisher, InterVarsity Press, U.S.
• “I came home from LittWorld 2018 with many new thoughts, insights and knowledge and a deepened experience of God.  The sense of care, unity and servanthood particularly struck me.” –Joan Campbell, author, South Africa
• “It was a good opportunity for me to be at LittWorld. We have lots of foreign books and authors translated from foreign languages. We need to raise up our Ukrainian authors. LittWorld has the same vision.” –Sergey Sologub, author, Ukraine

“Come to LittWorld and share with global colleagues what God has taught us as writers and publishers,” Herjeczki encouraged.

Further program and registration details will become available. For more information, email mai@littworld.org.

New TV Series “Faithful Finance LIVE” Now Streaming on Pure Flix

Fort Worth, Texas (January 2021) — Today, more than ever, women are filling executive roles in the workplace and passionately pursing their dreams as entrepreneurs. Yet, many are still learning the bare minimum when it comes to finances or leaving the financial planning decisions to their husbands. Entrepreneur, financial advisor of more than 20 years, and the author of the popular Zondervan book: Faithful Finance, Emily G. Stroud passionately helps people move past fear to find joy and peace in their personal finances.

In time for the new year, Stroud is continuing her popular brand with the new TV series “Faithful Finance LIVE.” Stroud and her co-host, motivational speaker and singer, Alison Gengelbach, direct viewers to take control of their financial futures without the feelings of fear or guilt. They also invite inspiring guests, including a two-time Olympic gold medalist, to share their unique stories of making positive impacts on the world.

The 30-minute talk show is debuting four pilot episodes and is now available for viewing on Pure Flix, a division of SONY Entertainment and the top streaming service for faith-based and family-focused media.

“How we manage our money must be intertwined with our faith and values,” said Stroud. “Money is not evil, and it should be used as a tool to purposely bless our families and others. Our new series shows viewers how biblically based financial planning is a source of joy, security, and hope.”

When Stroud and her husband became parents, they left behind their busy city lives and moved into a peaceful farmhouse. Stroud then took the leap of faith to move the offices of her thriving financial firm to her home, with the dream of more family time, and having the opportunity to have intimate discussions with her clients about their unique financial hopes, dreams, and fears. After a year of living in the farmhouse with a successful business and being closer than ever with her family, Stroud felt called to share her story outside of her Fort Worth clientele, and as a result, she wrote the successful book Faithful Finance: 10 Secrets to Move from Fearful Insecurity to Confident Control. Now she is inviting viewers everywhere into her farmhouse to encourage them to plan for living – not dying.

The new series discusses:

• Top financial planning issues
• Stories of those making a greater impact on the world
• Our emotional, habitual expenses that are putting us over budget
• Why charitable giving should be a top priority
• Making room for intentional travel
• Developing a budget – the #1 tool to achieve financial freedom
• How to turn a dream into a reality

In her book Faithful Finance: 10 Secrets to Move from Fearful Insecurity to Confident Control (Zondervan, 2018) Stroud offers ten life-changing secrets that work in every financial situation, for every income level, at every stage of life. With engaging stories and practical examples, Stroud empowers readers to make choices that will allow them and their loved ones to enjoy financial freedom.
