WHEATON, Ill.—Crossway is pleased to announce two new initiatives designed to better serve their independent retail partners. Going forward, Crossway will be offering updated terms and a customized website designed specifically for independent retailers.

The new, simplified terms will be available to all retailers, featuring higher discounts for all orders of 10 or more assorted books and Bibles and free shipping on all orders. By offering improved discounts on books and Bibles and reduced minimums, Crossway’s goal is to provide stores with increased margins, allowing them to discount and maintain tighter inventory control.

In addition to the new terms, Crossway is also launching a new website (crossway.org/trade) specifically for independent retailers. This simple and convenient interface will make it easier for stores to place orders anytime and will automatically apply seasonal and short-term specials. Seasonal discount information, e-catalogs, downloadable order forms, and creative assets for new resources will also be available on the site.

“Christian and ABA independent stores are more important than ever in helping customers find Crossway books and ESV Bibles,” says Dan Bush, Crossway’s senior vice president of sales. “As the marketplace continues to change, our hope is to ease the burden on stores by introducing easy online ordering and improved terms. We are excited to work closely with stores to better serve their customers.”

CAROL STREAM, Ill. (May 13, 2019)—The Evangelical Christian Publishers Association has presented a Platinum Award to Tyndale House Publishers (@tyndalehouse) for A Child’s First Bible, which has surpassed one million copies in sales. Established in 1990, the Gold | Platinum | Diamond Book Awards recognize outstanding sales achievement in the publication of quality Christian literature. A Child’s First Bible was one of four titles to be recognized with a platinum award, joining Jesus Calling: 365 Devotions for Kids by Sarah Young, The New Spirit-Controlled Woman by Beverly LaHaye, and You Are Special by Max Lucado.

“We are thrilled to see A Child’s First Bible continue to touch the hearts of tens of thousands of children each year. Bringing the Bible to life for children was the central reason Dr. Taylor founded Tyndale House Publishers, and his legacy lives on to this day,” said Linda Howard, Associate Publisher.

First published in 2000, A Child’s First Bible is a collection of 125 of the most familiar Bible passages, from both the Old and New Testaments. Beginning with the story of Creation and ending with Revelation, the text is retold in simple words by well-known author and translator Kenneth N. Taylor. With its charming illustrations and clear, inspiring text, A Child’s First Bible is a must for every child’s bookshelf.

FEATURES

• All the great characters and stories of the Bible are included in this beautiful treasury.
• Clear, easy-to-read text is appropriate for young readers and fun to read aloud to the preschool child.
• Simple questions at the end of each Bible passage are designed to highlight important biblical truths.

The Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA) is an international nonprofit trade organization comprised of member companies that are involved in the publishing and distribution of Christian content worldwide. Since 1974, ECPA has strengthened Christian publishing by building networking, information, and advocacy opportunities within the industry and throughout multiple channels so that our members can more effectively produce and deliver transformational Christian content. ECPA.org 

For generations of readers since its founding in 1962, Tyndale House Publishers has been a voice to trust. Today, one of the largest independent publishers in the world, Tyndale’s mission is to open the Bible to as many people as possible in language that they can relate and respond to, namely as home of the Holy Bible, New Living Translation (NLT). Not only a Bible publisher, Tyndale offers nonfiction books that equip readers with Christ-centered insight, counsel, and life-improving stories. Tyndale also publishes fiction from fresh, new voices and celebrated authors alike—capturing the imagination of millions of readers. With a deep understanding of the importance of nurturing future generations, Tyndale also publishes children’s products that make God’s Word and wisdom come alive. Tyndale’s independent status allows it to follow its founding model, giving a majority of annual profits—and more than $100 million dollars in its history—to charitable missions. With every book purchased, Tyndale readers give life to the needs of people around the world.

Tyndale House Foundation, established in 1963 by Kenneth and Margaret Taylor, is a charitable fund that makes grants to support Christian work around the world. For over 50 years the Foundation has received all royalties from the sales of Living Letters (1962), The Living Bible (1971), and the New Living Translation (1996). In 2001, Ken and Margaret Taylor transferred ownership of Tyndale House Publishers to the Foundation. As a result, dividends from the profitable operations of the publishing company also now flow to the Foundation.

WESTMONT, IL—Brian Chung and Bryan Ye-Chung of Alabaster Co. have signed a contract to partner with InterVarsity Press (IVP) on the Alabaster Devotional series—a version of their widely praised Alabaster Bible set, originally launched through a Kickstarter campaign in 2016.

Chung and Ye-Chung got their start in ministry with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship (IVP’s parent organization) and were inspired by fellow staffer and author James Choung. His book Real Lifepredicts the spiritual question of the next generation to be, What is beautiful? and Chung and Ye-Chung leaned into that question when they started Alabaster Co.

“We have become a culture that values design, consumes large amounts of visual media, and has given everyone access to a camera and tools for making,” said Chung and Ye-Chung. “We are all creatives. In the midst of this reality, we ask, How do we show that the gospel is beautiful?” 

The Gospels was the first release of Alabaster Co. They integrated visual imagery and thoughtful design in the four biblical texts, interested in seeing how it could give readers a more beautiful reading experience. The Kickstarter campaign immediately took off and nearly doubled their fundraising goal. Since then they’ve launched more books of the Bible, including Psalms, Romans, and Proverbs.

Alabaster Co. has received coverage from numerous outlets for this project. The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, the Huffington Post, and others have all called their books “the Bible for millennials.” In a piece with Vox, Chavie Lieber wrote, “These are no ordinary religious books. They have that Kinfolk-inspired, vaguely Scandinavian vibe that has taken over coffee shops, fashion boutiques, and interior design Instagram. Their pages are clean and spacious, and the religious texts are placed next to photos that are solemn yet alluring: forests of trees, mysterious caves, a de-petaled rose, mist above the ocean, a woman holding a candle.”

The IVP Alabaster Devotional series will initially release with volumes for each the four Gospels and two volumes for Psalms, beginning in the winter of 2020. These versions will have lectio and visio divina study material throughout, which will be authored by Jan Johnson (John, Matthew, and Luke), Tracey Gee (Mark), and Kathy Khang (Psalms, volumes one and two). The books will use the New Living Translation.

“This project will combine the Alabaster Bible’s modern, reader-friendly design with lectio divina studies rooted in the ancient tradition of the church,” said Ethan McCarthy, editor for the project. “Part of our DNA at IVP has always been to invite readers into the Bible in fresh and life-giving ways—and this series promises to do just that.”

IVP, which is approaching its seventy-fifth year of publishing in 2022, has a long history of producing Bible study content. The first book published by InterVarsity Christian Fellowship was written by Jane Hollingsworth titled Discovering the Gospel of Mark. Since then IVP has produced countless Bible studies, including their expansive series of LifeGuide Bible Studies.

“We look forward to partnering with IVP on the Alabaster Devotional series,” added Chung and Ye-Chung. “In many ways, the Alabaster journey began with InterVarsity, through the spiritual foundation it built for the founding team members during their time in college. To partner with IVP is to go full circle as a company.”

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.

COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. – (May 14, 2019) – Janice Peterson, NavPress (@NavPress) author and beloved widow of pastor and author Eugene Peterson, passed away Friday, May 10, in Kalispell, Montana, where she was cared for in an assisted living facility. NavPress published Janice’s Becoming Gertrude: How Our Friendships Shape Our Faith, her first book, in November 2018. Eugene Peterson passed away on October 22, 2018.

“When I first met Jan, it was very clear: This is the woman behind the man,” said Don Pape, publisher, NavPress. “She selflessly stood by Eugene, yet very much had her own voice. She was amazing—a spunky Southern belle. I loved her candor. I loved her little smirk. I loved when she’d say, ‘Oh, Don . . .’—knowing she was going to correct me on one matter or another. Here was a woman who loved her husband, her family, and her Jesus. I have learned so much in just being present with her. A grand lady who is leaving behind a huge aching hole in my soul, but I am so very pleased she is now reunited with her Gene.”

Janice (née Stubbs) married Eugene in 1958. She is survived by their three children—Karen, Eric, and Leif Peterson—and nine grandchildren.

Said Janice in a Christianity Today article about Becoming Gertrude, “These years later, I’m well aware that being a pastor’s wife brings with it a lot of demands and a lot of time spent serving others. But the amazing thing about service is that it rarely returns void, even if we don’t see the end results ourselves.”

Becoming Gertrude is Janice’s wisdom on the beauty of spiritual friendship and God’s unfolding grace over the course of a life lived for Him. Jan used the term spiritual friendshipto capture this idea of journeying with others through life, sharing experiences and wisdom and seeking God together.

Eugene Peterson wrote more than 30 books, including a number of volumes that were assembled into his best-known and most popular work, The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language (2002).

The NavPress mission is to advance the calling of The Navigators by bringing biblically rooted, culturally relevant, and highly practical products to people who want to know and love Christ more deeply. Through THE MESSAGE Bible and other insightful resources, NavPress seeks to bring positive spiritual movement to peoples’ lives. In January 2014, NavPress entered into an alliance with Tyndale House Publishers to strengthen and better position NavPress for the future. NavPress helps lead in the mission of making disciples by providing rich content that brings spiritual impact and life transformation.

Book featured on the Trade Paper Frontlist, continues to gain momentum since launch

[Nashville, Tenn. (May 20, 2019)]—Bestselling author and Passion movement founder Louie Giglio’s latest book “Not Forsaken: Finding Freedom As Sons and Daughters of a Perfect Father” (May 7, B&H Publishing) debuted at No. 3 on the Publishers Weekly Trade Paper Frontlist for the week ending May 11.

After a successful launch week, the book continues to gain momentum as Giglio completed a large book signing at the Atlanta Barnes & Noble (Buckhead) on May 8, national media interviews and book signings in Los Angeles, Atlanta and Columbus, with more events planned for the coming weeks.

“Not Forsaken” was inspired by Giglio’s own life experiences, as well as a thirty-year-plus burden to see young people know God as he originally intended: a perfect father who loves them unconditionally. This is a message with life-altering implications for every reader regardless of background; and as Father’s Day approaches, the message of “Not Forsaken” will continue to be necessary and welcomed by readers.

“The response to ‘Not Forsaken’ has made it clear that this message is resonating with readers from all walks of life and all types of earthly fathers,” said Jennifer Lyell, V.P. of Book Publishing and Merchandising. “We are excited to see how this momentum continues to build and pray this book will impact the way readers see God, as their perfect heavenly Father.”

Though every individual has a unique experience with their earthly father, Giglio says what unites is the need woven into every soul, “the need to be loved, and treasured, and noticed and accepted by our father.” Statistics show that more children than ever live without a father at home and the millennial generation, which Giglio has been ministering to for over three decades through Passion, has been called “the fatherless generation.” However, Giglio says this book is for everyone—not just those with “daddy issues”—because every Christian needs to discover more of what it means to be a loved son or daughter of the King.

“‘Not Forsaken’ was birthed from a truth that’s transformed my life, and a message I’ve carried for many years: God is not the reflection of your earthly father, He is the perfection of your earthly father,” Giglio said. “No matter how amazing or absent our earthly fathers may be, we can find the utmost freedom in seeing God as our perfect Father.”

Since the first Passion gathering in 1997, Passion events have drawn over 20 million young people all over the world. Giglio and his wife Shelley are passionate about calling a generation to leverage their lives for the fame of Jesus, and in addition to the collegiate gatherings of Passion Conferences, they lead the teams at Passion City Church, sixstepsrecords and Passion Global Institute.

Louie Giglio is Pastor of Passion City Church and the Original Visionary of the Passion movement, which exists to call a generation to leverage their lives for the fame of Jesus.

Since 1997, Passion has gathered collegiate-aged young people in events across the US and around the world, and continues to see 18-25 year olds fill venues across the nation in pursuit of lives lived for God’s glory. Most recently, Passion hosted 40,000 college students and their leaders in four venues linked together across three cities at Passion 2019.

In addition to the collegiate gatherings of Passion Conferences, Louie and his wife Shelley lead the teams at Passion City Church, sixstepsrecords and the Passion Global Institute.

He is widely known for messages like Indescribable and How Great is Our God.

Series will guide readers on how to understand each work from a Christian worldview

 [NASHVILLE, TENN., (May 17, 2019) —] B&H Publishing is proud to announce its acquisition of acclaimed author and award-winning English professor Karen Swallow Prior.

Though many are familiar with and perhaps can even recite quotes from classic literature such as “Sense and Sensibility,” “Frankenstein” or “The Scarlet Letter,” many adults don’t know how to read them and likely haven’t picked them up since their high school English class.

To that end, Prior will pen a beautifully-designed literature series for B&H that guides readers through a selection of the classics, helps them navigate the pitfalls that often trap readers and shows them how to read each work in light of the gospel and to the glory of God. The first books to release will be “Sense and Sensibility” by Jane Austen and “Heart of Darkness” by Joseph Conrad in March of 2020.

Prior is editing each volume, adding an introduction to guide the reader on how to read it and adding supplemental information.

Forthcoming titles (not final, subject to change) in the series are: “Frankenstein” by Mary Shelley and “Jane Eyre” by Charlotte Bronte, “The Scarlet Letter” by Nathaniel Hawthorne and “Tess of the D’Urbervilles” by Thomas Hardy.

“I’ve been teaching literature to college students for nearly 30 years. I’ve often been told by people who’ve not had the chance to take a class with me that they wish they could. And, likewise, I have often wished to be able to expand my teaching to readers outside the classroom walls,” Prior said.

“Writing introductions to a few of the works I love and teach most will do just this. I hope through this series to assist general readers to achieve greater understanding and appreciation of, not only these selected works, but also the vast world of classic literary works beyond these titles as well. Reading such books can be challenging at first, but reading well is a skill like any other—one that can be learned and improved with experience and practice. And it’s enjoyable, too!”

Prior’s previous books include “Booked: Literature in the Soul of Me” (T. S. Poetry Press, 2012), “Fierce Convictions: The Extraordinary Life of Hannah More—Poet, Reformer, Abolitionist” (Thomas Nelson, 2014) and most recently, “On Reading Well: Finding the Good Life through Great Literature” (Brazos, 2018). Her writing has appeared at “Christianity Today,” “The Washington Post,” “The Atlantic,” The Gospel Coalition, BreakPoint, “Think Christian,” “Comment,” “Relevant” and “Books and Culture.” She has spoken at numerous writing conferences including the Festival of Faith and Writing and the Roanoke Regional Writers Conference.

“We are thrilled to partner with the esteemed Karen Swallow Prior on this literature series, which we pray will help readers both better understand these classics texts and see God’s truth and beauty in each work,” said Jennifer Lyell, V.P. of Book Publishing and Merchandising. “There is no one better to compile and edit these than Karen; I know her editorial insight will inspire a new generation of readers to fall in love with the classics.”

Prior’s contract was negotiated by Clarissa Dufresne, B&H publisher for specialty products, with worldwide rights. For more information, visit bhpublishinggroup.com.

Karen Swallow Prior is an award-winning professor of English at Liberty University. She earned her Ph.D. in English at SUNY Buffalo. Her writing has appeared at “The Atlantic,” “Christianity Today,” “The Washington Post,” Vox, “First Things,” “Sojourners,” “Relevant,” “Think Christian” and other places. She is a Senior Fellow at the Trinity Forum, a Research Fellow with the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention, a Senior Fellow at Liberty University’s Center for Apologetics and Cultural Engagement and a member of the Faith Advisory Council of the Humane Society of the United States.
