Unique project explores hundreds of everyday issues, as well as ‘adds to the rich biblical literature in the expanding biblical counseling space’

August 16, 2023 — This week marks the release of The CSB Life Counsel Bible—a collaborative effort between Holman Bibles and New Growth Press.  The project is unique in how it was designed to explore practical biblical wisdom on everyday topics, and it was also brought to life to assist readers in navigating today’s complex cultural and mental health challenges.

Building on the consistent growth of the biblical counseling space, the project features an outstanding list of contributors (click here for a complete list). Articles were written by best-selling authors and Bible teachers such as Joni Eareckson Tada and Paul Tripp and experts in the biblical counseling community including Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation (CCEF) faculty members Edward Welch, Michael Emlet, and the late David Powlison as well as many other counselors. The Bible includes articles on topics as broad as grief, depression, anger, guilt, and shame, and as narrow as addiction, suicide, bipolar disorder, cutting, adoption, and chronic fatigue.

The CSB Life Counsel Bible explores and brings richness and depth to passages related to marriage, parenting, and hundreds of other day-to-day issues making it an excellent resource for not only pastors, counseling and ministry leaders, and youth leaders, but also couples, parents, and young adults.

“A simple survey of the publishing landscape will reveal that biblical counseling literature has seen a significant increase over the last several years,” said Holman Bibles publisher Andy McLean. “This growth in content not only shows attentiveness to tangible felt needs that exist in the world, but also reflects the church’s call to showcase how the gospel and biblical wisdom speak to personal and cultural challenges that we all face in life.”

The CSB Life Counsel Bible features the highly readable and decidedly reliable text of the Christian Standard Bible® (CSB), known for capturing the Bible’s original meaning without sacrificing clarity, making it easier for readers to engage with Scripture’s life-transforming message and to share it with others.

Other features of the new Bible include:

• More than 150 full-length articles from respected biblical counselors and scholars
• Callout quotes placed near each article providing truth, hope and encouragement
• Over 100 studies focusing on keywords applicable to personal healing, growth, and counsel
• Book introductions including “Circumstances of Writing,” “Structure,” “Contribution to the Bible” and a special “Truth for Healing” section with an overview of key truths related to healing from each book of the Bible
• Wide margins for notetaking and journaling
• A robust page-end cross-reference system with over 25,000 cross-references connecting Scripture from Genesis to Revelation

“Rising rates of mental health struggles, moral confusion, deconstruction of faith—we live in an unsettling and often scary world,” said Barbara Miller-Juliani, Vice President at New Growth Press.  “For The Life Counsel Bible, New Growth Press has assembled an experienced, thoughtful, full-of-grace team of biblical counselors who unpack the living truth of the Scripture and apply it to our modern struggles, sorrows, and failings. Pastors and counselors will find direction in how to apply Scripture to their counselees. Parents will be helped to apply God’s Word to their children’s struggles. Husbands and wives will learn about true love. And all will be pointed to Christ—the one who is the only soul anchor that will hold us fast in the storms of life.”

The mental health crisis in America continues to grow as millions of additional people each year report increased stress and anxiety, depression, and other ailments. Collectively, years of anxiety and fatigue around the COVID pandemic, rapid changes in cultural expectations and norms, inflation, and other economic issues are among the greatest contributors to the acceleration of the crisis and the corresponding growth in counseling needs.

Welch believes the project has something to say for everyone. “God,” he said, “… speaks many words to many different problems.”

The Life Counsel Bible will be available at all major retailers.  Learn more at www.lifecounselbible.com.

WESTMONT, IL—Carmen Joy Imes, author of Bearing God’s Name and Being God’s Image, has signed a contract with IVP Academic for the Fall 2026 release of a third book titled Becoming God’s Family.

Imes (PhD, Wheaton) is associate professor of Old Testament at Biola University. A graduate of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, she is the author of Bearing YHWH’s Name at Sinai, Bearing God’s Name: Why Sinai Still Matters, Being God’s Image: Why Creation Still Matters, and the editor of Praying the Psalms with Augustine and Friends.

Imes is a regular contributor to The Well, a fellow of Every Voice, and serves on the advisory council for the Bible Literacy Conference. She is a member of the Evangelical Theological Society and the Society of Biblical Literature and serves on the board of directors of the Institute for Biblical Research.

Following up on her two previous books with IVP Academic, Becoming God’s Family is Imes’s call for the West to recover the “multicultural nature of the people of God and the way the presence of God dwells among us.”

Imes says, “The first book sought to recover the value of the Old Testament, particularly the law at Sinai, for believers’ identity and vocation. The second book, a ‘prequel,’ broadened the scope of inquiry to the identity and purpose of all humans by going back to Genesis 1–11. This third book aims to recover what in the West is a neglected dimension of biblical faith, hiding in plain sight from the beginning to the end of the biblical canon. Our Western individualism prevents us from appreciating the truly communal and multicultural nature of the people of God and the way the presence of God dwells among us. Biblical salvation is not just another and more effective means of self-actualization, as though God were freeing us from slavery to sin so that we could pursue our individual dreams unhindered. Rather, the Bible invites us into a group project and offers us a place to belong. Becoming God’s Family will offer a robust biblical theology of community, highlighting God’s intention to dwell among us collectively. When we attend to these themes in Scripture—God’s presence among the community—we discover that we were never meant to walk alone.”

Becoming God’s Family was acquired by Rachel Hastings, associate academic editor of IVP Academic. She said, “We need more books with a constructive and hopeful vision for the church, and I can think of no scholar more equipped for the task than Carmen. Her scholarly expertise coupled with her ability to speak in a way that resonates with both the academy and the church will undoubtedly make this book a valuable addition to her work in Bearing God’s Name and Being God’s Image.”

Carol Stream, Ill. — (August 17, 2023) —Try Softer by Aundi Kolber has surpassed 100,000 copies sold across all editions: paper, ebook, and audio.

In Try Softer, which released January 7, 2020, Kolber shows readers how God specifically designed their bodies and minds to work together to process their stories and work through obstacles. By highlighting the latest psychology, practical clinical exercises, and her own personal story, Aundi equips and empowers them to connect to their truest self and truly live.

Commenting on this author, title, and significant sales milestone, Jillian Schlossberg, Acquisitions Manager, shared, “The team at Tyndale celebrates this huge milestone for Aundi and Try Softer. It’s been such a joy to see Aundi’s message impact so many, gently guiding them further on their path toward healing. Her fiercely compassionate words and tenacious spirit offer our world a refreshing and compelling new lens, and it’s a privilege to be publishing this rare talent.”

Aundi Kolber is a Licensed Professional Counselor (MA LPC), writer, and speaker in Grand Rapids, Michigan. She specializes in trauma- and body-centered therapies and is passionate about the integration of faith and psychology. She has written for Relevant, CT Women, and (in) courage. As a survivor of trauma, Aundi brings hard-won knowledge around the work of change, the power of redemption, and the beauty of experiencing God with us in our pain.

This is Kolber’s first book to achieve 100,000 units sold.

In addition to Try Softer, Kolber is also the author of The Try Softer Guided Journey and the recently released Strong like Water. In March 2024, she will release Strong like Water Guided Journey.

Grand Rapids, August 2023 – Best-selling author and theologian Mike Nappa’s “Reflections for the Grieving Soul,” (Zondervan), released on July 18, has vaulted to the #1 position in Amazon’s highly-competitive “New Release Christian Devotionals” category.

A testament, Nappa hopes, to the impact it’s having on readers seeking solace as they navigate the challenging journey of loss and grief.

“I’m grateful to hear it’s reaching people who need grace during a time of grieving. My prayer is that God will be noticeably near to every grieving soul, as he has proven Himself close to me in the midst of my own sorrow.”

A longtime literary agent and the author of over five dozen books, Nappa served in ministry and co-authored a number of those books with Amy, his wife of 30 years, before losing her to cancer in 2016.

The book’s placement on the platforms of two key figures such as Ann Voskamp and Sarah Young have significantly contributed to the book’s rising influence within the realm of Christian devotionals.

“Reflections for the Grieving Soul is an essential read for the heavy-hearted. Mike personally extends a hand to the reader by walking us through his own struggles and prayers, all the while leading us toward the hope we can find in Christ,” said Tiffany Curtis, Faith Editor at Crosswalk.com, “This is an honest look at the mourning process and will help a grieving heart at any stage to feel deeply understood.”

The book is available for purchase on Amazon and at all booksellers.

Friesens was pleased to hear of the joint venture between Timsons Engineering and CPI Corporation with the intent to build Timsons presses again.

Friesens presently operates 2 Timsons presses, a T32 and a T48, which have been workhorses in our single colour product line.  These presses have provided us with excellent quality and reliability, so we were disappointed when Timsons ceased production in 2015.

The TimsonsCPI announcement was perfect timing as we were seeking to upgrade. Friesens is thrilled to acquire the first press from this joint venture, and we look forward to its arrival in 2024.

We have a high degree of confidence in this investment, and in the venture itself. The subject matter experts we met at the factory buoyed our confidence that this was a good strategic investment and partnership.

Upgrades to the press include a new oil lubrication system in the print unit that allows for a 16% increase in speed, a new light-weight titanium chopper knife folder, new Baldwin impact Fusion blanket washing system and of course all new state of the art drives, motors, and a new operating software.

At Friesens, we help others share their best story with the world. We do this by combining caring and talented people with the latest technology to deliver a superior customer experience.

As an employee-owned business, we are committed to reinvesting in our operations. Not only for our own benefit today, but for the benefit of employee-owners of the future and the communities they call home. Our company has been in business for 115 years and we’ve never been more excited about the future!

If you have any questions about this release, please contact Byron Loeppky, Senior VP of Books at byronl@friesens.com or phone 204-319-8113.

CAROL STREAM, Ill. (August 9, 2023) – Tyndale House Publishers (@tyndalehouse) has announced that Jeff Johnson, Chief Administration Officer, will retire on September 29, after 37 years at the company. “Jeff Johnson has been instrumental in guiding Tyndale House Publishers and the greater Christian publishing industry during his many years of executive leadership,” said Scott Mathews, CEO of Tyndale House, “We are grateful for his contributions over the years and for all his efforts in furthering the mission of Tyndale House Ministries. He will be missed.” Johnson will continue to serve on the board of Tyndale House Foundation.

Jeff Johnson began his career at Tyndale as a stock runner in 1986. Johnson became Tyndale’s director of human resources and administrative services in 1988 where he oversaw three major building projects and coordinated the initiation of the 401(k) plan to replace the pension plan model for employees. In 1998, he was promoted to vice president of publishing services, and in 2004 was named chief operating officer. In 2016, Johnson was promoted to the role of president and chief operating officer.

During his tenure at Tyndale, Johnson played a vital role in shepherding initiatives that helped expand Tyndale’s catalog and contributed to the financial and ministry success of the company. It was his vision to create Tyndale Español in 2005 and to acquire Hendrickson Publishing Group in 2021. Johnson also recognized the potential for the page-recognition technology behind Tyndale’s Filament-enabled Bible, which earned a patent from US Patent and Trademark Office in 2021. Additionally, he helped lead a cross-departmental, company-wide effort to bring the product to market, and it continues to be one of Tyndale’s leading Bible lines today. Johnson’s vision also included the development of Tyndale’s e-commerce websites and the internal publication management system that manages the company’s daily operations.

In addition to his work at Tyndale, Johnson brought his expertise and experience to the ECPA board of directors for many years, serving as vice-chair and providing counsel and direction to this important Christian publishing consortium. “Jeff has always had a heart for service,” notes Sharon Heggeland, COO of Tyndale House. “He has always been mindful of Tyndale’s mission legacy, encouraging all of us at THM to serve one another.”

“My focus as a leader at Tyndale has always been on completing the Great Commission,” offered Johnson. “It is my hope that all publishers will honor the call to supply products and support authors and organizations that help fulfill this command from our Lord and Savior.”

A retirement reception to celebrate Jeff Johnson’s contributions will be held at Tyndale during the last week of September.

Race to Kindness to Release May 2024

Grand Rapids, MI – August 8, 2023 – Zonderkidz is pleased to announce that 12-year-old Orion Jean, the 2021 TIME Magazine Kid of the Year, will publish a children’s picture book titled Race to Kindness, releasing May 7, 2024.

Illustrated by Darshika Varma, the book is inspired by Orion’s accomplishments of getting over a half million books donated to children and collecting over 100,000 meals for the food insecure in his community and across the country, all beginning when he was 9.

The book shows a boy who takes on small acts of kindness – like a smile or a wave – to bigger actions – where everyone matters and everyone can make a difference. Based on Orion’s Be K.I.N.D. initiative, the characters in the book use the letters in the word kind to “Keep your eyes open,” “Include others,” think about how “Nothing is too small” and to“Do something about it” when someone is struggling or facing a challenge.

This one book deal with Jean was acquired by Katherine Easter, Acquisitions Editor for Zonderkidz/HarperCollins, for world rights.

“Orion’s story was so inspiring to us and we want to help him reach more young readers with this message of kindness to do what they can, from wherever they are. Working with Orion and his family has been a true joy! His passion fits our publishing mission so well,” says Megan Dobson, Vice President and Publisher of Zonderkidz.

More information on Jean and the new book can be found here:  www.racetokindnessbook.com  His profile as the 2021 TIME Kid of the Year when he was 11 can be found here:  https://time.com/6144632/kid-of-the-year-2021-orion-jean/ Orion makes his home in Mansfield, Texas where he looks forward to attending 8^th grade this fall.

The book is now available for pre-orders wherever books are sold. Advance review copies of the book and media interviews are available upon request; please contact Publicity Director Jessica Westra at jessica.westra@harpercollins.com. A full media tour is planned for May 2024.
