Carol Stream, Ill. (September 13, 2019) — Tyndale House Publishers (@tyndalehouse) announced today that Danielle Walker, author and photographer of the New York Times bestselling cookbooks Against All Grain, Meals Made Simple, and Celebrations, will publish her memoir, Food Saved Me: Find Healing and Take Back Your Life through the Power of Food, in March 2021 with Tyndale Momentum.

In Food Saved Me, Danielle will tell the full story of her health journey for the first time. While she has shared snippets of her story in the past, she has never revealed the details surrounding her own health struggles and journey to healing. In her new book, Danielle shares her autoimmune medical challenges, which she dramatically improved through a major change in her eating habits. She balances disclosing her personal health journey with educating and equipping her readers to take control of their own lives through the healing power of food. Her desire is to restore hope to the nearly 50 million people struggling with autoimmune illnesses and/or dietary restrictions. Coming alongside her fans, Danielle describes her painstaking journey—from her symptoms to diagnosis, frustration and confusion with medical protocol, and eventual discovery and empowerment in the healing power of food.

Ron Beers, Tyndale’s senior VP and publisher of Tyndale Books, said, “As someone who has lived on Danielle’s recipes over the past few years, I am all in on this book. Danielle’s story will provide inspiration and freedom to the millions of us who either need to or want to eat differently in order to feel better and live healthier. And even more, it will literally save the lives of people who are experiencing physical ailments and don’t realize that the food they eat might be the cause. This will be an important and revolutionary book that we are proud to publish.”

Additionally, Jan Long Harris, executive publisher of Tyndale Momentum, shared, “Health and wellness are an increasingly important emphasis for Tyndale Momentum, and we could not be more excited to be working with one of the most respected voices in the healthy, grain-free, gluten-free eating movement. Danielle’s courageous and faith-filled journey will inspire and inform many others who are considering ‘going against the grain’ for a healthier life.”

The book is scheduled to release in March 2021 and will be supported by a significant marketing budget as well as a national media tour.

Danielle Walker is the beloved author of three New York Times bestselling cookbooks—Against All Grain, Meals Made Simple, and Celebrations, which MindyBodyGreen named one of the five best gluten-free cookbooks ever published—and the voice behind one of the most popular grain-free blogs on the Internet, Against All Grain. Her most recent cookbook, Eat What You Love, released in December 2018. After being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and suffering for many years, Danielle found health through dietary changes. She has become a beacon of hope in the autoimmune world and has been a leader in the paleo and gluten-free movement for nearly ten years, showing how food can nourish and heal our bodies. Danielle is a repeat guest on Today, The Doctors, Fox News, Access Hollywood, Hallmark’s Home & Family, and many other syndicated shows. Her work has been featured in People, O: The Oprah Magazine, USA Today, Shape, Women’s Health, Parents, and Fitness, among others.

ABC News Correspondent Linsey Davis released second book with Zonderkidz in August 2019

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. September 12, 2019–ABC News correspondent Linsey Davis asked questions of ten Democratic Presidential candidates tonight during the third Democratic debate of this year.  The debate viewed at 8 p.m. EST on ABC and Univision, shown live from Texas Southern University in Houston.  Davis helped moderate the event along with Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos, “World News Tonight” anchor and managing editor David Muir and Univision Anchor Jorge Ramos.  More information about the debate can be found here: https://abc.go.com/news/insider/watch-the-third-democratic-debate-on-abc-and-the-abc-app

Davis’ second children’s book, One Big Heart: A Celebration of Being More Alike Than Different, released in August, following up on the success of her award-winning picture book The World is Awake. Davis has appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America, The View, and other media outlets speaking out about the book and its inspirational message.

Set in a classroom, this book explores color, features, behavior, and varying abilities and personas of friends all around. “Children are sponges and they absorb so much more than we realize,” said Davis. “The earlier we help our children love themselves, and others, for who they are, the more they will see the similarities we all share.”

Inspired by her mother, Beverly Davis, who helped her develop a love of writing, Linsey worked on the book with her. “We all have traits that make us who we are,” Davis said. “I give my mother so much credit for helping me accept and appreciate uniqueness in others. Our hair, skin, eyes, and personalities are very different, but we have so much in common to celebrate. We’re curious, we love, we feel, we explore. These are what we should focus upon—what binds us together.”

[NASHVILLE, TENN., September 16, 2019—] Bestselling Bible study author and acclaimed speaker Kelly Minter is set to release her first cookbook this fall, “A Place At The Table: Fresh Recipes for Meaningful Gatherings” (October 15, B&H Publishing).

Minter’s Bible studies, such as “No Other Gods” and “All Things New” (LifeWay Resources), have all included recipes, stemming from her love for cooking, hospitality and bringing people together. After years of readers asking for more recipes, Minter decided to partner with Nashville-based acclaimed chef Regina Pinto to compile 90 recipes, both well-known and novel dishes plus personal favorites.

As food has historically gathered people together, Minter points readers to the bigger purpose in cooking: opening their tables so others can have a place to experience the love of God and the fellowship of his people, as some of the most meaningful moments in the Bible were experienced around food.

“I hope ‘A Place At The Table’ will inspire people to cook, not only for sustenance but also for the meaningful gatherings that take place around a homemade meal,” Minter says. “When we cook we connect to the goodness of God’s creation, and when we serve nourishing dishes we connect with those around our table. I pray ‘A Place At The Table’ will help us get cooking for the community it inevitably brings.”

Pinto is an acclaimed chocolatier and pastry chef, and the former owner of the Blushing Berry in Tenn., where she created truffles and desserts for some of Nashville’s most famous brands, including Arrington Vineyards, Belle Meade Winery and The Hermitage Hotel.

In addition to the recipes, “A Place At The Table” includes supplemental material where the reader can hear more from both authors about broths, seasonal drinks, canning, décor, growing herbs and more. Minter points readers to fresh, whole or homegrown components, prioritizing the value of flavors that can only come with seasonal ingredients. The cookbook has stunning photography to inspire readers to put their hand to the joy of cooking and offer others not just a meal, but a place to belong.

B&H is supporting “A Place At The Table” with a presale campaign beginning September 1, including a giveaway of Minter’s favorite cooking items and a launch event at her “Cultivate” event in Leesburg, Va., on October 18, a national publicity tour, trailer videos and a podcast series. Further details are available at www.aplaceatthetablecookbook.com.

“We are thrilled to bring Kelly and Regina’s recipes to readers in the form of a cookbook, a product Kelly’s readers have been asking for over the years,” said Jennifer Lyell, V.P. of Book Publishing and Merchandising. “We pray these 90 recipes bring people together around the table to enjoy his good gift of food.”

Kelly Minter is passionate about teaching the Bible. When she’s not singing, writing or speaking, you can find her picking homegrown vegetables, enjoying her six nieces and nephews or riding a boat along the Amazon river with Justice & Mercy International. A Southern transplant, she delights in college football, long walks and a diner mug of coffee with her closest friends.

A self-taught chef who learned the basics of cooking from her grandmother and mother in Brazil, Regina Pinto has traveled through the U.S. and U.K., merging the flavors of her childhood with each new destination. She is a chocolatier and pastry chef, and the former owner of the Blushing Berry in Tenn., where she created truffles and desserts for some of Nashville’s most famous brands, including Arrington Vineyards, Belle Meade Winery and The Hermitage Hotel. She thinks of cooking as a way to express her love for others and finds the greatest joy in seeing people delight in her dishes, especially her family, as she is the mother of two and grandmother of three. Regina is active with Justice and Mercy international in the Amazon.

B&H Publishing Group, an imprint of LifeWay Christian Resources, is a team of mission minded people with a passion for taking God’s Word to the world. Because we believe Every Word Matters® we seek to provide intentional, Bible-centered content that positively impacts the hearts and minds of people, inspiring them to build a lifelong relationship with Jesus Christ.

Bob Whitaker, Jr., president of Whitaker House, and Xavier Cornejo, director of the publisher’s Spanish Division, have announced the appointment of Mariana Tafura as the division’s sales manager.

“We are extremely excited to have Mariana on our team,” said Cornejo. “She’s an internationally recognized and valued professional in the Hispanic Christian literary industry. We know that her extensive experience and outstanding talent will be very significant in the continued growth of our Spanish Division.”

Tafura most recently served as sales manager of Editorial Unilit, a Christian Spanish publishing company based in Miami.

“We have proudly observed the upward development of our Spanish Division during the past five years,” Whitaker said. “The arrival of Mariana, a recognized sales professional in our industry, complements our winning team and increases our expectations toward the great purpose of growing and impacting the Hispanic world with extraordinary books that lead to the knowledge of God and His Word. That has been our main objective during 45 years of publications.”

Whitaker House is a Christian publishing company headquartered in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, just outside of Pittsburgh. Its parent company, Whitaker Corporation, also owns Anchor Distributors, one of the largest Christian distribution companies in the United States.

Hachette Book Group’s FaithWords Division Rolls out the “Laugh and Learn Bible for Kids” on September 10th, Combining Fun, Whimsical Storytelling with Biblical Context and Facts

NASHVILLE, Sept. 4, 2019 — FaithWords, a division of Hachette Book Group, is pleased to announce its most significant kids publication to date, adding to an already-popular collection of FaithWords kid’s books by author Phil Vischer: the Laugh and Learn Bible for Kids.

“It’s hard for kids to make sense of a book as big and complex as the Bible. That’s why we often just tell our kids a few of the simpler stories, and then skip the rest. But kids need more than snapshots from the Bible, they need to see how the whole Bible fits together to tell one amazing story. That’s what I tried to do with my video series What’s in the Bible?, and it’s what I’m doing now with the Laugh and Learn Bible for Kids. By helping kids see the big picture, we help them find their own place in it,” said Phil Vischer, author of the Laugh and Learn Bible for Kids. “After all, we know kids love big, exciting, redemptive stories. That’s why superheroes, Star Wars and, Harry Potter are so popular. With this Bible we’re actually IN that kind of epic story, and every kid can be a part of it.”

The Laugh and Learn Bible for Kids is more than a children’s Bible storybook, it’s a deep, engaging, laugh-out-loud gospel experience.  It will guide readers from Genesis to Revelation, retelling beloved Bible stories AND tackling challenging questions like “What is sin?” and “What is the Trinity?”

Each story is vividly illustrated, takes just five minutes to read, and includes a family connection to encourage family Bible study and help readers learn, talk, and pray together! PLUS, bonus content connects the dots of each Bible story, making the Laugh and Learn Bible for Kids a family devotional Bible that provides a big picture, applicational view of the Biblical narrative.

Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas to Join the Iron Stream Media Team

(BIRMINGHAM, Ala.)—Iron Stream Media announced today the acquisition of LPC Books, doing business as Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas, which is a traditional, royalty-paying publisher established in 2007. Details concerning the September 1 acquisition were not released, but initial plans indicate Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas will continue to operate under their existing brand and model.

“When God called my ministry partner Cindy Sproles and I to launch a book publishing company, we understood LPC was not ours. It was God’s,” stated Eddie Jones, founder and CEO of LPC Books. “He has simply allowed us to work for him. For that I feel deeply blessed. To get up each morning and know you are sowing seeds for a future harvest is both humbling and exciting.”

In regards to his decision to enter this agreement with Iron Stream Media, Jones added, “When God led me to Iron Stream, I sensed it was God’s hand at work. I already knew the heart of Ramona Richards. Her years of experience in publishing let me know our authors would be in good hands. Bradley Isbell has the vitality and vision to grow this in ways I never could. And John Herring gave me assurances through his words and actions that integrity and honoring God would remain at the heart of LPC. I feel confident our authors, editors and book titles will succeed in ways I could only pray for.”

“Since our inception, we have always been committed to meeting people where they are on their faith journey and making sure what we offer by way of content points people to Christ,” stated John Herring, president and CEO of Iron Stream Media. “We currently offer web-based, full-year and short-term Bible study teaching plans for churches; Bibles; Bible studies; devotionals; and Christian living books dedicated to helping men and women grow in their faith. Through our acquisition of New Hope Publishers in 2017, we acquired our first fiction titles and have been looking for ways to expand those offerings to the market.”

According to Herring, Iron Stream Media initially began as a part of Student Life. After a brief time with NavPress and the Navigators, Life Bible Study was born as an independent company and expanded to include content for adults and children in addition to students.  Since then the company has been on a trajectory of growth and expansion. In 2017, the company acquired New Hope Publishers. Earlier this year, the company began the launch of three new imprints:  Ascender Books, Iron Stream Books and New Hope Kidz.

“As a Christian media company, our mission is to provide high-quality resources that will advance the gospel of Jesus Christ in someone’s life and help them make disciples as they go,” Herring stated. “Lighthouse shares a similar vision by seeking to provide content that enriches the lives of believers by ensuring the agendas of their fiction content points to a moral truth. As a team, we are excited to pick up each of the new imprints at LCP, especially the Illuminate young adult fiction line.”

According to Bradley Isbell, director of operations for Iron Stream Media, both Lighthouse Publishing and Iron Stream media plan for a seamless transition. Iron Stream Media has already begun the welcome and integration of the Lighthouse Publishing network to the Iron Stream media team and network of authors with plans to continue following the existing Lighthouse model for acquisitions and distribution.

About Lighthouse Publishing
LPC Books launched its general book publishing division in 2007. Authors include Christy Award winners, debut novelists, and nonfiction writers. All fiction titles point to moral truths and characters with strong beliefs about what’s right and wrong. Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas is a traditional, royalty-paying book publisher.

New York Times bestselling author, Bible teacher, and speaker to release legacy book on February 4

CAROL STREAM, Ill. (September 5, 2019)—Beth Moore, bestselling author, beloved Bible teacher, and speaker, has written Chasing Vines, in which she shares how everything changes when you discover the true meaning of a fruitful, God-pleasing life that matters. Chasing Vines is scheduled for release from Tyndale House Publishers (@TyndaleHouse) on February 4, 2020.

In her new book, Beth Moore taps into our deep desire to live fruitful lives. In reflecting upon this topic, Moore shares, “At the heart of every believer is the desire to live an immensely fruitful life. But what does an immensely fruitful life look life? How do we access the free-flowing life only the Vine offers? My hope and prayer is that as we explore what Scripture has to say about the Vinedresser and the vine, our hearts would be opened to the bountiful harvest that is ours in Christ.”

In Chasing Vines, Moore employs her trademark wit and wisdom, providing fresh hope through the abundant secrets of a fruitful, Kingdom-building, God-pleasing life. Tracing the images of vinedresser, vine, branch, and fruit through Scripture, and sharing stories from her own journey, Beth shows us how nothing in our lives is wasted: not the place we’ve been planted, not the painful pruning, not even the manure that gets dumped on us when we least expect it.

Moore is convinced from Scripture that every person who knows Jesus is meant to thrive in fruitfulness. Life might not always be easy, but in Christ, it can always be immensely fruitful. Nothing is for nothing.

Beth takes readers on a journey of discovering what it means to chase vines—and learning how everything changes when we understand and fully embrace God’s brilliant design for growing fruitful, abundant, meaningful lives.

Regarding this acquisition, executive publisher Jan Long Harris said, “We believe the church is parched and just waiting and hoping for the message of an immensely fruitful life. Tyndale House Publishers is honored to bring this message of hope and encouragement to those who have chosen to believe, yet who are being attacked with questions and doubt. This message—this conversation—needs to be amplified and promoted to rise above the hopeless din. We are humbled and energized to join Beth Moore at this unique time in church history.”
