Ada, Michigan | March 13, 2026 – Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group, is pleased to announce that The Road Less Triggered: Turning Conflict into Connection with a Single Choice by Dr. Kelly Flanagan is #23 on USA TODAY’s Best-selling Booklist for the week of March 8.

The Road Less Triggered introduces readers to Flanagan’s “Peaceful Pivot Process,” a nine-step framework organized around three core goals: getting calm, getting free, and getting connected.

Through a powerful blend of psychology, spirituality, personal stories, and practical exercises, clinical psychologist Dr. Kelly Flanagan guides readers toward what he calls “openheartedness” — the conscious choice to remain emotionally available even in their most triggered moments.

Dr. Kelly Flanagan is an author, speaker, coach, and clinical psychologist with two decades of expertise in interpersonal relationships. His thought leadership has been featured in The 5 Love Languages, the TODAY show, and SUCCESS magazine. Kelly’s proprietary frameworks will take your relationships to a level that traditional communication strategies can’t touch. He is married to another clinical psychologist named Kelly, and they have three children–one adulting, and two at home in their small town outside of Chicago.

Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group, was founded in 1870 and has spent more than a century focused on publishing books that offer both inspiration and practical help to readers. Over the decades Revell books have included numerous New York Times bestsellers as well as titles in a variety of genres including fiction, Christian living, marriage, family, youth and self-help.

March 2026 | LISLE, IL—InterVarsity Press (IVP) has appointed Jon Boyd as the new divisional vice president of editorial and associate publisher. IVP is also pleased to announce that Cindy Bunch has been named senior editor-at-large.

Bunch has worked at IVP for more than thirty-seven years, including ten years as associate publisher and director/vice president of editorial. “I am deeply grateful for Cindy’s many years of faithful service leading our editorial team. Her steady influence has shaped IVP’s editorial culture, accompanied authors with care, and helped steward our publishing work with theological depth and integrity,” said Terumi Echols, publisher and president at IVP.

As senior editor-at-large, Bunch will continue to acquire spiritual formation books, lead writing workshops, and shape LifeGuide Bible Studies, a project she has led since 1990. She will move into this new role on June 1.

Boyd has worked at IVP for more than fourteen years. He joined IVP as the digital communications manager in 2012, was named associate academic editorial director in 2016, and has been the academic editorial director since 2017. He will fill Bunch’s position as divisional vice president of editorial and associate publisher on April 1.

“There have been only three editorial leaders in IVP’s 79-year history: James W. Sire, Andrew T. Le Peau, and myself,” Bunch said. “I am so pleased that Jon Boyd will carry the torch as the new leader of the editorial department. Jon brings an understanding of who we are and passion for our unique place in the publishing world. This is paired with his optimistic vision for the future. He’s brought both stability and innovation to the academic department during his tenure in editorial, and I expect that he will do the same for the whole department. I look forward to carrying out my own role acquiring and developing books for IVP Formatio under his leadership.”

Boyd said, “What an honor and privilege it is for me to come along in the line of IVP’s previous heads of editorial, all giants of Christian publishing stretching back to the 1970s. The editorial program they created is going strong, which is what makes it even thinkable for me to dare to follow in their footsteps.”

Before joining IVP, Boyd held leadership positions in communications at North Park University. He also served as the web producer for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship for four years and as associate director of InterVarsity’s Graduate and Faculty Ministry from 2000 to 2009. Boyd received his bachelor’s degree in history from the University of Michigan, a master’s in Hebrew Bible from Trinity International University, and a PhD in history from Johns Hopkins University.

“Jon brings a rare combination of scholarly depth, publishing expertise, heart for ministry, and long-standing service to InterVarsity,” Echols said. “For nearly fourteen years he has served IVP with steady commitment, thoughtful leadership, and deep care for our publishing mission. We are grateful for his leadership thus far and for the qualities he brings to this role. He is relational and trusted by colleagues and authors. He is attentive to data that helps us steward IVP’s resources wisely. He is a quick study who asks thoughtful questions and brings fresh thinking to complex challenges. Most importantly, Jon understands who we are as a ministry and is prayerful and discerning about the future of IVP’s publishing program.”

Boyd said, “IVP has been breaking the rules since our first book in 1947 (a Bible study written by a woman), and ever since then we’ve joyfully gone about our mission of amplifying the voices of people with important things to say, even if they had been silenced by the usual gatekeepers. Some of those rules have changed, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse—so all the time we face fresh challenges. We’ll keep working on the best ways to use print and digital media, human intelligence, and Christian faithfulness to equip believers with the insights and encouragement they need to face what’s next.”

BRENTWOOD, Tenn., March 13, 2026—Author and artist Jennifer Trafton offers readers a portrait of faith, imagination and vocation in her latest book, “If Only We Could See: Reimagining Creativity, Compassion, and Calling through the Extraordinary Life of Lilias Trotter,” releasing April 14, 2026, from B&H Publishing Group.

In “If Only We Could See,” Trafton brings new life to the story of Lilias Trotter, a gifted 19th-century artist whose work drew the praise of famed critic John Ruskin and whose radical decision to turn away from artistic acclaim led her instead to the overlooked communities of London and, later, to the deserts of North Africa. Blending biography, theological reflection and personal engagement, Trafton invites readers into Trotter’s world, where artistic vision and spiritual devotion were inseparably intertwined.

“It’s my hope that readers are inspired by Lilias to rediscover wonder, embrace a calling to creative compassion, and reimagine what faithfulness can look like in everyday life,” said Trafton. “In our deeply divided culture, more than ever we need a new way of seeing—and Lilias offers exactly that, an attentive, generous way of being in the world that can reawaken our joy and transform our community.”

While most readers have yet to learn of Lilias Trotter, many have experienced the influence of her work in the hymn, “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus,” which was directly inspired by her writings.

Rather than offering a conventional biography, “If Only We Could See” draws readers into a personal encounter with Trotter as her friends knew her: a visionary who approached life with an artist’s eye and a missionary’s heart. Readers are encouraged to see both the world and their neighbors anew—and to consider what the book calls a “beautiful possible life.”

Jennifer Trafton is a storyteller and artist with a passion for exploring the intersections of faith, creativity and the arts. She studied church history and theology at Wake Forest University, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, and Duke University. Trafton has been a regular conference speaker, writer, teacher, editor and illustrator for the Nashville-based Rabbit Room creative community for over a decade. Her novels for children, “The Rise and Fall of Mount Majestic” and “Henry and the Chalk Dragon,” received starred reviews and multiple award nominations, and she has since collaborated on or contributed to a wide array of projects including “The Wingfeather Tales,” “The Lost Tales of Sir Galahad” and “Every Moment Holy, Vol. III: The Work of the People.”

B&H Publishing Group, an imprint of Lifeway Christian Resources, is a team that believes Every Word Matters®. We seek to provide intentional, biblical content that positively impacts the hearts and minds of people, cultivating lifelong relationships with Jesus Christ. We publish (print and digital) in the trade, church and academic markets, as well as the CSB translation. For more information, visit BHPublishingGroup.com.

John C. Lennox is widely regarded as one of the greatest Christian apologists of modern times, having devoted a lifetime to showing how faith in God and faith in reason stand logically together. In My Story, he invites readers into his remarkable journey: growing up in Northern Ireland, studying at Oxford and Cambridge, teaching mathematics at the highest level, and boldly defending the Christian faith in lecture halls, debates and the public square for more than sixty years.

From encounters with Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, to the hunger for Bibles in Soviet Russia, and his ongoing belief that rigorous science and profound faith are not enemies but allies, Lennox reflects on the ideas, people and pivotal moments that shaped his life with warmth, wit and disarming honesty. Part memoir, part intellectual adventure, My Story includes photos from Lennox’s personal collection and is a must-read for anyone curious how a brilliant mathematical mind can hold fast to the gospel – and how one man’s faith has helped millions find a reason to believe in an age of doubt.

John Lennox MA MMath MA (Bioethics) PhD DPhil DSc FISSR is Emeritus Professor of Mathematics at Oxford University. He is currently President of the Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics (OCCA), Distinguished Research Fellow at the Lanier Library and Theological Centre, Yarnton Manor, Oxford, and a senior fellow of the Trinity Forum.

My Story: A Spiritual & Intellectual Autobiography
By John C. Lennox 9780281091973 | Hardcover | $33.99 | May 19, 2026 | 448 pages

---

“This book reads more like an adventure story than an autobiography – It is a lifetime’s journey with God in every corner of the world extolling the claims of Jesus Christ.”
—David Cranston FRCS, Emeritus Associate Professor of Surgery University of Oxford

“John Lennox’s autobiography tells the multi-faceted story of a modern apostle and apologist, widely known for his spirited defense of Christian theism, often in public dialogue with high-profile atheists and detractors… ”
—John Hedley Brooke, Emeritus Fellow of Harris Manchester College, Oxford, and Honorary Fellow of the International Society for Science and Religion

‘I have decided to write this account, since I would have no story worth telling were it not for the Person who has shaped my life and made it what it is – indeed, the one who is ultimately responsible for my existence, and that is Jesus Christ, the Son of God’
—John C. Lennox

MARCH 3, 2026 – In her transformative new book, out today, The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe: How to Find It, Fight It, and Live Free, Jennie Allen—New York Times bestselling author and founder of IF:Gathering and Gather25—invites readers to confront the unseen falsehoods shaping their thoughts, relationships, and sense of worth. Blending biblical wisdom, neuroscience, and lived experience, Allen offers a pathway to genuine freedom, helping readers uncover the hidden lies that quietly direct their lives and discover the truth that sets them free.

“In a world overloaded with pressure and distraction, many of us feel an undercurrent of anxiety or dissatisfaction we can’t quite name,” Allen says. “The lie we don’t know we believe is often the most powerful force shaping our lives. Freedom begins the moment we dare to name it.”

Drawing from her own journey with her own core lie and her work discipling millions through IF:Gathering and Gather25 (a vision to mobilize the global Church), Allen identifies three core lies that shape nearly every human story: I am helpless. I am unlovable. I am worthless. Each of these beliefs can subtly infiltrate our identity and relationships, leading to burnout, shame, and disconnection.

Through a blend of spiritual truth and practical strategy, The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe shows readers how to:

• Spot the three core lies running their lives
• Trace where those false beliefs took root
• Replace destructive narratives with lasting truth
• Build a lifestyle of emotional resilience, mental clarity, and spiritual freedom

More than just another self-help book, Allen’s message connects the sacred and the practical, providing both faith-based insights and practical steps for mental and emotional well-being. Whether she’s speaking in a church, a stadium, or on her podcast, Allen’s voice resonates with anyone who feels stuck, striving, or searching for peace.

“True freedom isn’t about being perfect; it’s about being honest,” Allen says. “Vulnerability is the key to building the deeper connections we all crave.”

March 2026 | LISLE, IL—In celebration of Women’s History Month in March, InterVarsity Press (IVP) announces the launch of the new Hear Women podcast alongside its Read Women initiative. Together these initiatives, with the tagline “Listening to Women for the Good of the Church, Academy, and World,” invite readers and listeners to engage thoughtfully with women’s stories, ideas, and leadership and elevate women’s voices and contributions across faith, scholarship, and culture. The first Hear Women episode releases March 9.

In Hear Women authors and hosts Dorina Lazo Gilmore-Young, Tara Beth Leach, and Nijay Gupta engage in conversations that highlight the many ways that women bring a profound impact to the church, their communities, and the world.

Gilmore-Young said, “This theme is certainly one of my passions. I’m a big fan of both Nijay and Tara’s work so I look forward to entering into these conversations together!” Gilmore-Young is a speaker, teacher, podcaster, and journalist, and the author of several Bible studies and devotionals including Redeemer and Breathing Through Grief.

One of the distinctions about Hear Women is the thoughtful discourse largely led by and featuring the voices of women. Different from most podcasts with a female-only hosting team or a mostly male hosting team, Hear Women will model what it means for men to honor, support, and collaborate with the voices, expertise, and giftings of women.

“I’m incredibly excited about the Hear Women podcast and honored to be a part of such a significant and meaningful project,” said Leach, senior pastor at Good Shepherd Church Naperville, Illinois, and author of Radiant Church, Emboldened, and others. “The vision IVP has laid out—to create a space where women’s voices are central for the edification of the whole church—resonates deeply with me. It’s such a powerful opportunity to model mutuality and bring thoughtful conversations that our church and the world desperately need. The balance of having Nijay involved as a conversation partner is inspiring, and I truly believe this podcast can help shift the narrative around women’s contributions in the church.”

Gupta said, “I echo Tara Beth’s sentiments. This is an exciting endeavor, and I am honored to be invited into it. Back-and-forth conversations will leverage the wisdom of my incredible co-hosts.” Gupta is professor of New Testament at Northern Seminary and author of Tell Her Story, among many others.

Since its founding, IVP has demonstrated a commitment to publishing women whose scholarship, leadership, and lived experience have enriched the church and the academy. “IVP laid the groundwork for its commitment to elevating women’s voices with the publication of its first LifeGuide Bible Study by Jane Hollingsworth in 1943,” said Terumi Echols, publisher and president at IVP. “Nearly eighty years later our commitment remains the same, to ensure that women’s perspectives are not only included but actively centered in conversations shaping faith and the church today.”

Initial guests for the Hear Women podcast include

• Nicole Massie Martin, the chief operating officer at Christianity Today, founder and executive director of Soulfire International Ministries, and author of Nailing It
• Heather Matthews, doctor of ministry program manager at Wheaton College Graduate School and author of Confronting Sexism in the Church
• Jacqulyne Horbrook, CEO of Black Christian Influencers (BCI), the Christian Travel Club, and the BCI Influencer Agency, and the author of How to Be a Christian Influencer
• Jennifer Powell McNutt, associate professor of theology and history of Christianity at Wheaton College and author of numerous books, including The People’s Book (coauthored with David Lauber
• Sandra L. Glahn, professor of media arts and worship at Dallas Theological Seminary and author or editor of more than twenty books, including Nobody’s Mother and A Woman’s Place Is in the Story
• Shawna Songer Gaines, lead pastor at Trevecca Community Church in Nashville, Tennessee, and author of The Pastor as Midwife
• Lina AbuJamra, physician, Bible teacher, founder of Living With Power Ministries, and author of multiple books, including All Your Life
• Carmen Joy Imes, associate professor of Old Testament at Biola University and author of numerous books, including Becoming God’s Family and the forthcoming Fierce and Faithful, an IVP Kids title coauthored with Nijay Gupta
• Tammy Dunahoo, executive dean of Portland Seminary with more than forty years of church and denominational leadership experience
• Mimi Haddad, president and CEO of CBE International (Christians for Biblical Equality) and a contributor to more than fifteen books including The Participation of Women and Discovering Biblical Equality

The trailer and first episode of Hear Women release on March 9, with twenty-two biweekly episodes releasing through early 2027. The Hear Women podcast will be available through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other major podcast distributors.
