CAROL STREAM, IL – Tyndale is celebrating the remarkable impact and expanding reach of the Nueva Traducción Viviente (NTV) throughout Latin America. In recent years, the NTV has become one of the region’s most widely used and appreciated Bible translations. Momentum for the Nueva Traducción Viviente accelerated over the past year, with international sales increasing 72% in the last 12 months, demonstrating growing demand and expanding reach across Spanish-speaking markets. It has reached millions of readers with a clear, faithful, and accessible rendering of Scripture.

This growth has been fueled in part by the success of editions such as Biblia Inspira (Inspire Bible), Filament-enabled Bibles, and the Biblia de estudio del diario vivir (Life Application Study Bible), which provide readers with innovative tools and resources for deeper engagement with Scripture. Beyond strong sales, church leaders across Latin America point to the NTV’s role in helping a new generation connect with God’s Word through language that is both accessible and faithful to the biblical text.

“The NTV Bible has revolutionized our work with young people. Through its modern and clear language, we ensure that the Word is not only heard but understood—and it is in that understanding where true transformation begins,” said Paolo Lacota, youth pastor of CFA Church in Asunción, Paraguay. “Every time we teach God’s Word, we send a message to the future: we plant seeds in a generation that will reach places we may never see, but that will be touched by the eternal power of God.”

The NTV Bible has also marked a milestone in the evangelical Christian community in Colombia. “Its clear, simple, and approachable language has allowed God’s Word to be understood more easily,” shared David Pabón, Director of CLC Colombia in Bogotá. “The NTV has not only facilitated reading but has also contributed to renewed enthusiasm for the Bible, strengthening faith and Christian formation in new generations.”

More than 30 experts in the Bible, theology, linguistics, and related fields contributed to the translation, carefully crafting a Spanish text that is understandable throughout Latin America while remaining faithful to the original biblical languages.

“We are filled with joy to see how the Nueva Traducción Viviente is transforming lives in Latin America,” said Peter Cerra, Senior Director of International Publishing and Sales. “Our commitment has always been to provide an accurate translation, while also being understandable and pleasant to read for today’s audience. Seeing its impact in so many different contexts is deeply encouraging.”

At the heart of the NTV’s growth is a commitment to helping people understand and engage with God’s Word.  “Our desire is that people not only read the Bible but truly understand it and are transformed through their encounter with the Word of God. It is a true privilege to see how God uses the Nueva Traducción Viviente, in partnership with so many churches and faithful believers across the Spanish-speaking world, to touch hearts and draw people to Himself,” said Amy Simpson, Publisher, Bibles, Kids & Spanish.

Tyndale remains committed to serving Spanish-speaking communities around the world by supporting the continued distribution of the NTV and helping readers engage more deeply with Scripture. For more information about the Nueva Traducción Viviente, please visit BibliaNTV.com.

“Made Whole” Offers Biblical Healing for Couples Navigating Pornography, Betrayal Trauma, and Broken Intimacy

DALLAS, Texas | July 7, 2026 — XO Marriage, a leading faith-based marriage ministry helping couples thrive through every stage of their relationship, has released Made Whole: Healing, Wholeness, and Holiness in a Sex-Saturated World, a four-session video course and companion guide from Joshua and Hope Broome, available at no cost at XOMarriage.com.

The release reflects XO Marriage’s shift to a fully donation-supported model, removing financial barriers so any couple, regardless of income or location, can access the help they need. The conviction behind it is simple: No matter what you have done, or what has been done to you, your marriage is not beyond hope. In fact, it could become stronger after brokenness than it ever was before.

Joshua Broome spent six years as one of the most recognized names in the pornography industry. More than a decade removed from that world, he is a marriage advocate, speaker, and author, married ten years to Hope and raising four sons in Dallas. Together, the Broomes speak from a place few can. They have lived the brokenness, and they have lived the redemption.

The need is real. According to the Barna Group, 54% of practicing Christians admit to viewing pornography at least occasionally. Within church communities, Pure Desire Ministries puts that number at 75% of men and 40% of women. Countless couples are sitting in silence, carrying wounds their marriages were never meant to bear alone. Made Whole was built for them.

“Every marriage today is living in a spiritual war zone,” said Joshua Broome. “Pornography, comparison, secrecy, and temptation are not random struggles. They are strategic assaults on your intimacy, your unity, and your covenant. Too many couples are fighting alone, drowning in shame, and wondering if healing is even possible. The devastation is real. But so is hope. We have experienced the redemptive power of Jesus to take a marriage that was once shattered and make it stronger, deeper, and more honest than ever before. That is what we want for every couple who goes through Made Whole.”

The course moves couples through four sessions: The War for Holiness, The Gospel and the Wounds of Betrayal, Covenant Forgiveness and Communication, and Redeemed Intimacy, all built around the Broomes’ four-step framework for rebuilding trust: honesty, consistency, safety, and intimacy.

Each session pairs with the Made Whole Companion Guide, which creates space for real conversations, honest confession, and lasting transformation. With discussion prompts and a leader facilitation guide, it works in a living room or a Sunday small group. The guide helps couples fight the spiritual battle together, move from shame into transparency, practice covenant forgiveness, communicate with grace, and build rhythms that protect and deepen connection.

“Joshua and Hope have walked through real brokenness and real restoration, and they bring that hard-won wisdom to every session,” said Jimmy Witcher, president of XO Marriage. “The Christ who forgives you is the same Christ who restores you. That is the promise at the heart of this guide.”

Made Whole joins XO Marriage’s growing library of no-cost courses on communication, conflict resolution, finances, and more, alongside books, webinars, Marriage Intensives, and Vision Retreats.

To access Made Whole and all no-cost courses, create your account at XOMarriage.com.

About Joshua and Hope Broome: 
Joshua Broome knows firsthand that the Christ who forgives you is the same Christ who restores you. He spent six years as one of the most recognized names in the pornography, more than a decade later, he and his wife Hope bring hard-won wisdom and honest faith to couples carrying wounds their marriages were never meant to bear alone. Their message is simple: no matter what you have done, or what has been done to you, healing is possible. They serve with XO Marriage, where they created Made Whole: Healing, Wholeness, and Holiness in a Sex-Saturated World, a no-cost course and companion guide built for every couple sitting in silence, wondering if their marriage is too far gone. It is not. Made Whole is available at no cost at XOMarriage.com.

About XO Marriage: 
XO Marriage exists to help couples thrive through biblical truth, practical tools, and community support. Funded entirely by donor generosity, XO Marriage offers no-cost courses alongside books, webinars, marriage intensives, vision retreats, and church partnerships, rooted in the belief that marriage is a covenant designed by God to work.

Releasing Tuesday, July 14th, Hodder Faith is introducing three new volumes in the Hodder Bible Commentary series:  Esther by K. A. Ellis, 1&2 Chronicles by Peter Lau, and Psalms 1–41 by Benjamin Sargent. Each book offers fresh, thoughtful insight into Scripture, helping readers engage familiar texts with renewed clarity and confidence. 

The Hodder Bible Commentary is a fifty‑volume series that places the full Anglicised NIV text alongside accessible exposition. Written by contributors from a wide range of cultural and church backgrounds, the series brings together scholarship and pastoral sensitivity to show how the Bible continues to speak meaningfully into the complexities of modern life. It is designed for anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of Scripture, whether preparing a sermon, leading a study group, or reading at home. 

In Esther, K. A. Ellis trace’s themes of providence, identity, hiddenness, fear, boldness, and dramatic reversal. She draws readers into the wider biblical story of exile and covenant promise, showing how God sustains his people even when his presence feels hidden. Her commentary speaks gently and directly to Christians facing uncertainty or hostility today and points to Christ as the true Deliverer. 

Peter Lau’s 1&2 Chronicles invites readers to see the book as a theological compass rather than a historical appendix. Chronicles retell Israel’s past with purpose, encouraging worship, renewing identity, and restoring trust in God’s promises after devastation. Lau highlights how these themes find their fulfilment in Christ and how they continue to resonate far beyond their original setting. 

In Psalms 1–41, Benjamin Sargent guides readers through some of Scripture’s most formative prayers. These psalms give voice to trust in God through lament, praise, and petition, shaping the worship and imagination of God’s people across generations. Sargent combines new research with historic wisdom, encouraging readers to discover the depth and beauty of the Psalms and to join the ancient cry of adoration: “Glory.” 

Readers can explore these new volumes, along with the rest of the Hodder Bible Commentary series, at hodderbiblecommentary.com. 

About the Hodder Bible Commentary Series
The Hodder Bible Commentary spans fifty volumes and four million words, offering readable exposition of every book of the Bible. With the full Anglicized NIV text interwoven throughout, each volume is designed for clarity and depth, making it a valuable resource for pastors, teachers, small‑group leaders, and all adult readers seeking to understand Scripture more fully.

When Thoughts Get Stuck offers a compassionate path forward for Christians living with OCD 

“Written with pastoral care and the warmth of personal experience, Will and Thea do a superb job of providing readers with practical tools for breaking cycles of rumination. This empowering book is a must read for church leaders and for those who struggle with OCD and obsessive thoughts.” — Cheryl Donaldson, Psychologist, MA, LMFT, LCPC 

On Tuesday, July 14th, Hodder Faith is releasing When Thoughts Get Stuck, a gentle and deeply encouraging guide for Christians whose minds feel caught in loops of fear, doubt, or persistent “what‑ifs.” The book is written by Reverand Will Van Der Hart and Thea Joshi, both of whom live with OCD, and together they offer a rare combination of lived experience, psychological understanding, and spiritual wisdom. 

When Thoughts Get Stuck brings to light the often-hidden struggle of obsessive thinking, especially when it becomes intertwined with Christian belief. Van Der Hart and Joshi help readers understand what OCD truly is, how it shapes thought patterns, and why cycles of guilt, fear, and reassurance can feel so overwhelming. Their writing is warm and clear, guiding readers toward a renewed sense of God’s love and a more compassionate relationship with their own minds. Each chapter includes spiritual encouragement, expert‑informed guidance, and a prayer to support readers as they move toward peace. 

The authors explore how OCD mindsets can become entangled with biblical principles, how persistent guilt and condemnation can be released, and how obsessions and compulsions can be navigated with practical, grounded tools. Their approach offers hope to Christians with OCD and to the people who care for them, creating a space where faith and mental health can be understood together with both honesty and grace. 

Reverand Will Van Der Hart is a Well‑being Chaplain, speaker, and mental‑health advocate known for his work supporting Christians experiencing anxiety, OCD, and intrusive thoughts. 

Thea Joshi is a mental‑health communicator and writer whose work focuses on compassionate, faith‑informed approaches to psychological wellbeing.

Anniversary campaign includes 30 weeks of Bible giveaways, endorsements from ministry leaders, and stories of lives changed through Scripture.

CAROL STREAM, IL—For 30 years, the New Living Translation (NLT) has helped millions of readers experience the Bible in language that is accurate, understandable and audibly enjoyable. As the NLT marks its 30th anniversary in July 2026, Tyndale House Publishers is launching a 30-week celebration highlighting the translation’s enduring impact and growing influence among Bible readers around the world.

The anniversary campaign will include weekly Bible giveaways, with 30 Bibles awarded over 30 weeks, along with the sharing of 30 endorsements from pastors, scholars, authors, and ministry leaders whose lives and ministries have been shaped by the NLT.

The NLT was created to help readers understand the meaning of Scripture as clearly and accurately as possible. When readers understand God’s Word, they are more likely to engage with it regularly, apply it to their lives, and be transformed by its message.

“We believe that the New Living Translation—which combines the latest biblical scholarship with a clear, dynamic writing style—communicates God’s word powerfully to all who read it, said Mark Taylor, Chairman of the NLT Bible Translation Committee.  “We continue to publish it with the prayer that God will use it to speak his timeless truth to the church and the world in a fresh, new way.”

Created by a team of more than 100 leading biblical scholars, the NLT is translated directly from the earliest and most reliable Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts. Its meaning-based translation approach seeks to faithfully communicate the intent of the original authors in language that is clear and engaging for modern readers.

“We pray that the New Living Translation will overcome some of the barriers of history, culture, and language that have kept people from reading and understanding God’s Word,” said the NLT Bible Translation Committee.

The anniversary celebration also provides an opportunity to reaffirm the NLT’s brand promise: to help people experience the life-changing truth of Scripture through a translation that is accurate, understandable, and audibly enjoyable. During the translation process, the NLT is read aloud, with an eye toward cadence and flow, to ensure that the text sounds natural and engaging.

“While it’s a privilege to partner with some of the brightest scholars in biblical translation, our greater joy is in knowing that the NLT has helped to build biblical engagement and understanding for many millions of people, all around the world,” said Amy Simpson, Publisher, Bibles, Kids & Spanish. “Our work is fueled by our trust in God’s work and in his promise that his Word is powerful and life-changing. We hear from so many who take great joy in not only reading the Bible and understanding it but responding to it. What a blessing to consider the impact of that ministry over 30 years!”

Since its introduction in 1996, the NLT has become one of the most widely used English Bible translations, trusted by churches, ministries, educators, and individual readers. As the NLT enters its fourth decade, Tyndale remains committed to helping new generations of readers engage deeply with God’s Word and experience its truth, wisdom, and transforming power.

Readers can join the 30th anniversary celebration by following the NLT on Facebook (@NewLivingTranslation) and Instagram (@nltbible), where weekly giveaways, reader stories, and special anniversary content will be shared over the next 30 weeks.

NEWBURYPORT, MA (June 23, 2026)—One year ago, NetGalley LLC debuted Booktrovert.com with a vision: to modernize consumer book marketing by bridging the gap between publishers and everyday readers. Today, as the platform celebrates its first anniversary and the launch of the inaugural “Booktrovert Day,” that vision has successfully evolved into a powerhouse consumer discovery engine.

Since its launch on June 23, 2025, Booktrovert has fulfilled its original promise to provide a standalone, consumer-facing destination that complements the professional reach of NetGalley—the industry standard for digital galley distribution and early reviews with nearly 1 million active members globally. In its first year, Booktrovert has amassed nearly 70,000 registered users (93% with completed profiles) who have already claimed over 58,000 ebooks thanks to its popular giveaways. Publishers of all sizes—from Big 5 to university presses—along with savvy indie authors have booked over 380 Booktrovert campaigns to broaden their reach, increase pre-orders and backlist sales, and grow reader mailing lists. To date, Booktrovert has 9 published case studies in partnership with Forever (Abby Jimenez), Berkley Publishing Group (Lucy Jane Wood), William Morrow (Karin Slaughter), Simon & Schuster (William J. Mann), Harper360 (Evie Woods), Alcove Press (Andrea Jo DeWerd), W.W. Norton in partnership with Allstora (Phil Melanson), and more.

The company has established a seamless, full-funnel approach to book marketing: first gain early reviews and trade awareness on NetGalley, and then spark consumer excitement and sales via Booktrovert. This dual-platform synergy allows publishers and authors to build meaningful momentum by reaching industry professionals and everyday consumers simultaneously, ensuring that buzz created pre-publication flourishes long after launch.

“We felt we had a clear mandate born from direct industry feedback: to create a consumer-facing marketing destination that provides publishers with secure, robust digital fulfillment tools they trust. It’s been exciting to see early adopters successfully leverage Booktrovert for urgency marketing, backlist revitalization, and high-impact event activations—all without any administrative headache,” said NetGalley President Lindsey Lochner. “Publishers and authors appreciate the easy and fast setup (in fact, 29% of campaigns so far were booked  just 48 hours in advance) and fulfillment is all automatic, instant, and completely digital—no shipping required!”

“It’s been heartening to see how enthusiastically our community of readers has embraced Booktrovert,” said Tarah Theoret, NetGalley’s VP, Community Growth & Engagement. “We’re proud to see book lovers of all kinds connecting with the Booktrovert identity, and their input is truly helping to shape the experience from the start.”

Booktrovert’s success validates NetGalley’s “listen, then build” approach to innovation. Over the last 12 months, the platform has evolved to deepen user engagement and provide enhanced insights for publishers:

• Expanded Campaign Types: In September 2025, Booktrovert introduced Sweepstakes, allowing readers to enter for a chance to win limited-quantity ebooks, complementing the existing limited-time Giveaways.
• The Booktrovert Arcade: In March 2026, the platform expanded its interactive games with “Plotlines” (a word-connection game based on book plots) and “Cover Snap” (a daily cover art jigsaw puzzle). Already those two games have been played over 44,500 times, joining community favorites “Bookish Bingo” and “Shelfie Showcase.”
• Advanced Book Discovery and Tracking: The Booktrovert Library underwent major upgrades, allowing users to organize books into custom stacks and collections, and in April 2026, a highly customizable List View for spreadsheet lovers. The site also added a “Find Books” advanced search with dedicated full-page book profiles (featuring trade reviews), and the ability to rate books with nuanced quarter-stars.
• Data Import Capabilities: To help readers consolidate their reading lives, Booktrovert launched a beta Import tool, allowing users to seamlessly transfer their book histories from Goodreads, StoryGraph, or a custom CSV file directly into their Booktrovert Library.
• Revamped Basic Reporting, Plus Built-In Event Insights with Detailed Analytics: Every Booktrovert campaign includes transparent, easy-to-digest stats to help clients understand performance and ROI. Plus, Booktrovert is tailor-made for events and consumer shows—especially high-demand events like BookCon, where Booktrovert saw massive engagement in April 2026 by distributing private ebook giveaways in-booth and further extending reach post-show with online sweepstakes. Publishers like Boom! Studios and Penguin Young Readers Group have used Booktrovert to bring digital copies to fan events like New York Comic Con and Imaginarium Book Festival, and a recent collaboration with Reading Rhythms, Grand Central, and Little, Brown offered Booktrovert ebook giveaways to their app subscribers to widen reach beyond their in-person events.

Booktrovert Day on June 23, 2026 is an annual holiday for readers to celebrate a “Day in the Life of a Booktrovert.” Readers, authors, and creators, and fans are encouraged to share a snapshot of their unique reading lifestyle, using custom 70s pop art scrapbook-style digital stickers and social templates alongside the official hashtags #BooktrovertDay and #DayInTheLifeOfABooktrovert.

For Booktrovert Day, the NetGalley team has partnered with book influencers and authors across Instagram and TikTok and are offering free, extra promotion for publishers who have Booktrovert giveaways or sweepstakes starting on June 23.

Littleton, CO (June 24, 2026)— William Carey Publishing is proud to announce that one of its latest titles has received the American Society of Missiology’s 2026 Book Award for Excellence in Missiology. Larry W. Caldwell’s The Bible in Culture: Reading the Bible with All the World Using Ethnohermeneutics was awarded the honor at the society’s annual meeting, held June 19–21, 2026, in Notre Dame, IN.

The American Society of Missiology (ASM) is an ecumenical professional association representing more than 600 scholars, mission leaders, and practitioners across North America. ASM grants this annual award to a recent publication that demonstrates an outstanding contribution to the field of missiology and mission studies.

Larry W. Caldwell is chief academic officer, dean, and professor of intercultural studies and Bible interpretation at Kairos University in Sioux Falls, SD. He also serves as senior missiologist for Converge Worldwide. Previously, he and his wife, Mary, were missionaries with Converge in Manila, Philippines, for 21 years, and he continues to teach on contextualization and Bible interpretation throughout the world.

In The Bible in Culture, Caldwell introduces ethnohermeneutics—a revolutionary yet biblical approach to reading Scripture with, rather than for, the world. Drawing from decades of experience living overseas, Caldwell demonstrates that every culture has its own tools for understanding meaning and shows how God uses these to communicate the truth of his word. This book challenges readers’ assumptions about the interpretive task, encouraging and equipping them to rethink how the Bible can be understood in various cross-cultural, multicultural, and multigenerational contexts.

William Carey Publishing was founded in 1969 to make groundbreaking missionary and missiological research widely accessible. Its mission is to equip and empower the global church with the essential knowledge needed to advance world evangelization.
