7x New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Cahn to release most explosive book yet, ‘The Josiah Manifesto: The Ancient Mystery & Guide for the End Times’

July 31, 2023 by Sheri Toomb

Jonathan Cahn reveals stunning mysteries and revelations behind the recent events that have changed America, the world, and our lives in this indispensable guide to end times.

NEW YORK — After seven explosive New York Times Bestsellers, Jonathan Cahn’s stunning new book, “The Josiah Manifesto: The Ancient Mystery & Guide for the End Times” is coming September 5, 2023 from Charisma House. “The Josiah Manifesto” is as mind-blowing as all his bestsellers plus something different – the revealing of an ancient blueprint that we need to know to survive and prevail in what lies ahead.

Jonathan Cahn, named “one of the top forty spiritual leaders of the last forty years to have radically impacted the world,” is known for uncovering ancient mysteries in biblical texts, while bringing forth messages of prophetic import.

In “The Josiah Manifesto,” Cahn will take readers on a prophetic journey around the world — from a Caribbean island to Washington D.C. to the ancient Valley of Hinnom to the Supreme Court to a desert mountain to an ancient middle eastern temple to the gates of America to uncover a tapestry of stunning mysteries that lie behind the recent events that have altered America, the world, and our lives.

Is God using all these things to give us a revelation and the answer we need to know to prevail in the days to come?

In “The Josiah Manifesto,” Cahn will reveal The Island of Mysteries, The Winds of Hinnom, The Eastern and Western Gate, Jehu and the Temple of Baal, the Persian Decree, the Mystery of Days, the Heavenly Court, the Potter’s Jar, the Child of Nile, and much more.

And, he will answer the crucial questions that many are asking:

  • What does the future hold?
  • Is America heading for calamity?
  • What do I need to know to survive and prevail in view of what is yet to come?
  • Is there hope?

And with something very different from his previous blockbusters, in “The Josiah Manifesto,” Cahn will unlock the hidden blueprint that reveals how to survive, stand, and prevail in the days to come.

“The Josiah Manifesto: The Ancient Mystery & Guide for the End Times” (Charisma House) by Jonathan Cahn will be available wherever books are sold September 5, 2023.

Media note: To schedule an interview with Jonathan Cahn or request a print copy or digital galley of “The Josiah Manifesto,” please email press@JDAWorldwide.com.

Jonathan Cahn caused a worldwide stir with the release of his explosive first book, “The Harbinger,” which became an instant New York Times best seller and brought him to national and international prominence. His next four books were all New York Times best sellers, “The Mystery of the Shemitah,” “The Book of Mysteries,” “The Paradigm,” and his highest-debuting book, “The Oracle.”

Long before writing these books, he was known for opening the deep mysteries of Scripture and bringing forth messages of prophetic import. He leads Hope of the World, an international outreach of the Word, teachings, and compassion projects for the needy around the world. He also leads the Jerusalem Center/Beth Israel, made up of people of all backgrounds, just outside New York City, in Wayne, New Jersey.

Called the prophetic voice of this generation, Cahn is a much-sought-after speaker and has been highlighted in the New York Times as well as in many national and international media. He has spoken at the United Nations, on Capitol Hill, and to millions of people around the world.

Tribute to Harvest House author Jim George

July 31, 2023 by Sheri Toomb

EUGENE, OR, July 2023 — With great sadness, we grieve the loss of author Jim George, an exceptionally dear friend of the Harvest House family, who unexpectedly entered his Savior’s presence on July 18, 2023. Jim and his wife, Elizabeth, also a Harvest House author, have lived as shining examples of what it means to pursue God wholeheartedly. Through their writings and teaching ministries spanning many years all over the globe, they encouraged millions of Christian men, women, teens, and children to seek God and live fruitfully for Him.

As an author, Jim was best known for his books A Man After God’s Own Heart and The Bare Bones Bible Handbook. His extensive ministry background included his service as a missionary, pastor, seminary professor, and Christian author and speaker. Jim also served in a strong support role in Elizabeth’s teaching and writing ministry; the two worked closely together on book ideas and content development. Their ministry impact continues to be enormous, with a combined total of more than 16 million books in print, blessing readers worldwide.

Jim was dear to Harvest House Publishers for many reasons. At the top of the list were his exceptional desire to encourage believers toward a deeper love for the Lord and His Word, his genuine care for people on a personal level (which was always evident in our meetings with him and at ministry events), and his gracious humility. He cared that his books would truly minister to his readers and edify and encourage them, which is why he constantly rewrote his own material until he felt he had made it as instructional, practical, and inspirational as possible.

Jim took great delight in his family—his wife, daughters and their husbands, and grandchildren—and spoke of them lovingly and frequently. He was truly a pillar of wisdom and strength for all of them.

President Bob Hawkins Jr. says of Jim, “For a season of some fifteen years, I can think of no other author we have had the privilege of publishing who possessed such an overwhelming conviction of the need to take full advantage of every moment possible to write, and support his wife’s writing, for the purpose of ministry. That conviction, for Jim and Elizabeth, turned into the breathtaking execution of solid book after book after book—all born out of their extensive combined study of the Bible in the decades prior.”

Jim liked to say that we should make the pursuit of God the journey of our life, and he lived this out with contagious enthusiasm. It’s for this reason that Jim truly was a man after God’s own heart, and so many lives were enriched by his ministry.

About Harvest House:
Harvest House, a Christian publishing company based in Eugene, Oregon, publishes more than 100 books per year and carries a strong backlist offering more than 1,500 titles. Over 145 million Harvest House books have been sold worldwide through diverse distribution channels, and additional millions have sold in over 75 different languages.

Corrie ten Boom’s timeless, true story will be in theaters this weekend

July 31, 2023 by Sheri Toomb

This Summer’s Must-See Family Movie, “The Hiding Place,” Will Only Be in Theaters for a Limited Time

Corrie ten Boom’s Timeless, True Story is Essential, Illuminating, and Inspiring.

Bloomington, MN (July 27, 2023)—For two days only, U.S. theaters will host the movie adaption of Corrie ten Boom’s beloved true story, The Hiding Place.

The scene: World War II. Darkness has fallen over Europe, and the boots of the Third Reich echo through the streets. But on a quiet city corner in the Netherlands, some choose to resist. Corrie ten Boom and her family risk everything to hide Jewish refugees by the hundreds, and they ultimately face the consequences when they are discovered.

In 2005, Joni Eareckson Tada shared: “Corrie’s story is as compelling as ever. […] It is for every person whose soul is threadbare and frazzled, and for every individual who must walk into the jaws of his or her own suffering.”

This sentiment still stands true today for the millions who’ve read Corrie’s story. “Corrie ten Boom’s story in The Hiding Place continues to capture the minds and hearts of readers,” said Chosen Books Editorial Director Kim Bangs. “It forces us to face the brutal treatment of humans during World War II, yet leads us to remember the unimaginable compassion of one woman’s decision to choose the higher road of forgiveness. Every generation, every person is challenged to make the same choice. Corrie’s story gives us courage that we, too, can be that one person pressing against the darkness as we carry the light.”

Corrie ten Boom’s “The Hiding Place” movie is only available in United States and Canada theaters on August 3 and 5, 2023. The movie also will be available in limited international locations on August 16, 2023. Find this timeless summer feature near you: TheHidingPlaceFilm.com.

While this movie is only available for a limited time, anyone can buy the book, The Hiding Place, to read Corrie’s story any time!

Celebrating nearly 50 years of this riveting tale, a beautiful keepsake edition of The Hiding Place will be available in December 2023. Preorder yours now.

Corrie ten Boom (1892–1983) was born in Haarlem, the Netherlands. After being arrested in 1944 for helping Jews escape the Nazi regime, Corrie spent a year during World War II in prison camps. After the war, she was invited to share her experiences in more than sixty countries and was honored by the state of Israel for her work during the war. She passed in 1983, on her 91st birthday.

The Jesus Calling Magazine is published digitally and in print quarterly. The Summer 2023 issue features actress Tamera Mowry-Housley on the cover and highlights stories of people who have stepped out in faith like country star Aaron Tippin, MLS player Walker Zimmerman, and everyday people like Bill Magnusson, whose gift of a piano changed an eleven-year-old autistic child’s life.  The print magazine is available at Books-A-Million, Mardel Christian bookstores, and select independent Christian bookstores.

FaithWords to release new book by Jason A. Miller, “When the World Breaks”

July 31, 2023 by Sheri Toomb

The world as we know it has changed, and our understanding of our place in it must change too.

If the past few years have taught us anything, it’s that the world is broken. The world we thought we knew vanished, and so many of us are struggling to make sense of a world that’s not what we thought it was. When the World Breaks: The Surprising Hope and Subversive Promises in the Teachings of Jesus (FaithWords, August 1, 2023, ISBN: 9781546003502) is about what happens when the fundamental picture we had relied on — our sense of how everything holds together — falls apart. For some, this moment comes when a global pandemic upends our security. For others, it’s a partner leaving, or a terrible diagnosis, or the death of a loved one. Many of us have felt our worlds breaking when long-held beliefs about God or faith slipped through our hands. Whether the details are global or personal, the experience is the same: you discover that the framing reality you were living in has fractured.

But here’s the good news: The world has been breaking for as long as we can remember. We’ve been here before, which means we can turn to ancient, perennial wisdom to help us sort through these urgent problems. Jason Adam Miller explores the possibilities for hope hidden in the paradoxes Jesus spoke when he taught the eight blessings — often called the Beatitudes — recorded in the beginning of Matthew chapter 5. These strange blessings name our experiences of suffering and are built on a particular kind of hope. This book is a meditation on those teachings as a transformative way forward when we suffer.

Lyrically written and theologically rich, When the World Breaks reveals an unexpected way to look at these familiar verses, giving readers hope that God is with them in their suffering, and helping them become the kind of people who can put things back together.

Jason Adam Miller is the founder and lead pastor of South Bend City Church, an eclectic Christian community known for its thoughtful teaching, inclusive vision, and commitment to its city context. An advocate for artists and peacemakers, his work beyond South Bend focuses on cultural headwaters and conflict zones, where he serves an international constituency of leaders. He holds a master’s degree in theology from the University of Notre Dame.

James Barnett to retire from DaySpring leadership

July 31, 2023 by Sheri Toomb

SILOAM SPRINGS, Arkansas—July 31, 2023—DaySpring Cards, Inc., a Northwest Arkansas-based company specializing in Christian greeting cards, specialty products, and books and Bibles announces the retirement of its president James Barnett, effective July 31.

Barnett is the longest serving president of the company. He joined two local pastors—Dean Kerns and Don Leetch—at DaySpring on May 2, 1981, as a marketing intern. He has worked at the company for 42 years, serving 29 years as the president of DaySpring.

Smith Holland, president of Hallmark Global, told the DaySpring employees, “Over James’ long tenure, DaySpring has clearly defined its mission and purpose, evolved the business in light of significant industry changes and economic challenges, and solidified itself as a valuable component of the Hallmark Global business.”

Barnett has not only grown an enterprise, but he has also built a well-known brand, and integrated business and ministry in a most unique manner. DaySpring products impact millions of individuals worldwide each year. As he says, “Our motivation is ministry, our method is business, and our message is Jesus. Visiting companies and partners tell us we have developed a model for those who desire to combine a profitable business and a ministry vision, to be dedicated to integrating faith and work.” he said.

“It’s no secret God has blessed DaySpring over the past 52 years. And I remain confident that there continues to be amazing opportunities to thrive and succeed in fulfilling DaySpring’s vision of seeing every person experience and express the life-changing message of God’s love! Our founders always said that DaySpring is God’s idea, not man’s. We are all stewards of the business and ministry, carrying the baton for a season,” said Barnett. “I look forward to my own new season, concentrating on helping others who want to have a Kingdom impact in the marketplace.”

The company’s 50th anniversary celebration several years ago revealed the meaningful contributions that Barnett has made during his tenure at DaySpring. In the early days of his career, he launched the first fixture program in Christian retail. In the early 2000s, Barnett oversaw the launch of two direct-to-consumer channels: Ecommerce in 2000, and the Mary & Martha home party business in 2007. He also launched the (in)courage website where Christian women can share an online community. Over the past 42 years, he was a key part in negotiating DaySpring’s sale to Hallmark Cards, Inc. and led numerous partnerships with key licensors, along with DaySpring movies on Hallmark Media, and countless local, regional, and national partnerships.

Multiple ministries exist and thrive with the help of Barnett’s leadership and the generosity of DaySpring employees–American Rehabilitation Ministries, Ability Tree, Mali Hoops, Kind at Heart Ministries, Ezekiel Rain, Compassion International, Leather and Iron Ministries, and the Manna Center.

A native of Northwest Arkansas, Barnett is committed to the educational, cultural, and economic health of the region. He has been very involved in community and area organizations for more than 40 years, serving on several athletic, charitable, and scholastic boards. Currently, he serves on the boards of John Brown University, Walton School of Business (Dean’s Advisory Board), WorkMatters, and is engaged with the CEO Forum organization. Other affiliations include Arkansas Athletes Outreach, the Siloam Springs Chamber of Commerce (Chair in 2020), Soderquist Center for Leadership & Ethics, Urban Ministries, Inc. and the Winshape Marriage and Family Foundation. His industry affiliations include the Association for Christian Retail, the Greeting Card Association, and the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association.

About DaySpring:
DaySpring, the world’s largest Christian-message product provider, was founded in 1971 with a single Christmas card. Today DaySpring offers more than 6,000 products — from greeting cards to home décor, specialty gifts to devotional books. In 1999, DaySpring was acquired by Hallmark Cards, Inc. DaySpring products are sold in Christian retail outlets, mass retail stores, card and gift shops and other outlets in the United States and 60 foreign countries. DaySpring is based in Siloam Springs, Ark., and employs a staff of more than 200 people.

In-N-Out Burger owner and president Lynsi Snyder partners with Nelson Books for debut release

July 31, 2023 by Sheri Toomb

‘The Ins-N-Outs of In-N-Out Burger’ to release Oct. 17, 2023 ahead of the company’s 75th anniversary

BALDWIN PARK, Calif., July 31, 2023 – Ahead of In-N-Out Burger’s 75th Anniversary on Oct. 22, 2023, company president, owner and granddaughter of the founders, Lynsi Snyder, will release her debut book, “The Ins-N-Outs of In-N-Out Burger: The Inside Story of California’s First Drive-Thru and How It Became a Beloved Cultural Icon,” with Nelson Books, an imprint of Thomas Nelson.

In-N-Out Burger®, California’s first “drive-thru” hamburger stand, was founded by Harry and Esther Snyder in 1948. The Snyders ensured that every meal measured up to their simple business philosophy: “Providing the freshest, highest quality foods and services for a profit, and a spotless, sparkling environment whereby the Customer is our most important asset.” Today, Lynsi Snyder follows her grandparents, her uncle Rich, and her father Guy in carrying on that simple, successful philosophy.

“I’ve been wanting to tell the true In-N-Out story for some time, and as we neared that 75-year mark as a company, it seemed like a great time to let our loyal Customers and our In-N-Out family have the story in their hands,” said Lynsi. “In-N-Out Burger is so much more than an iconic restaurant and the home of delicious burgers, fries and shakes. For me, In-N-Out Burger is my family and my calling, and I couldn’t be more honored to share our story.”

While today, In-N-Out Burger has more than 38,000 Associates serving in more than 390 locations across seven states, the company’s 75 years of success have not been without challenges, failures, and tragedies. In “The Ins-N-Outs of In-N-Out Burger,” Lynsi offers an honest reflection of the company’s history and how it stayed true to itself despite all obstacles for more than seven decades.

“As we mark 75 years as a family-owned company, I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished and what we’ve learned,” Lynsi said. “We learn from mistakes, from struggles and challenges. So many times, I think people cover up the not-so-exciting or not-so-great things and just try to look at the wins. I believe it’s better to just be honest – share the truth. Even when it’s not pretty.”

All of the author’s proceeds for the book will go to both the In-N-Out Burger Foundation, a nonprofit founded by Lynsi Snyder’s uncle, grandmother, and mother to assist children who have been victims of child abuse and to prevent others from suffering a similar fate, and the Slave 2 Nothing Foundation, a nonprofit founded by Lynsi and her husband Sean Ellingson with a mission to create, educate, and aid in solutions to eliminate human trafficking and assist individuals and their families to gain freedom and healing from substance abuse.

Snyder is represented by Tom Dean, founder of A Drop of Ink Literary.

“The Ins-N-Outs of In-N-Out Burger” releases from Nelson Books on Oct. 17, 2023. For additional information about In-N-Out Burger, visit innoutbook.com.

Pastor Greg Locke empowers readers with biblical truths and powerful strategies for deliverance from demonic oppression in his new book, ‘Cast It Out: The Call to Set People Free’

July 24, 2023 by Sheri Toomb

Lake, Mary, Fla. —If Jesus spent one-third of His ministry casting out demons, why do so many churches virtually ignore deliverance ministry? Following the break-out box office success of his documentary, ‘Come Out In Jesus Name,’ which is now streaming worldwide, firebrand pastor, Greg Locke, is set to release ‘Cast It Out: The Call to Set People Free’ (ISBN-13: 978-1-63641-341-9, Charisma House), the third installment in his Spiritual Warfare Series. Through his new book, Christians will come to understand the power and purpose behind deliverance, and why all followers of Christ are called to cast out demons.

“I had all the arguments against signs and wonders firmly in hand and deliverance ministry wasn’t even an afterthought. I had predetermined it all to be nothing more than foolish hyped-up ‘charismaniac’ nonsense,” writes Locke. “But then God said, ‘I’m going to remove your denominational lenses. I’m going to show you what the Bible really says.’”

Locke, a former devout cessationist, recounts his first experience in deliverance ministry. A grandmother and her granddaughter came to his church to get baptized. As the little girl was going under the water, she placed both her hands on both sides of the baptistry, lifted herself up, and manifested a full-blown demon. “At that moment, I was afraid of the little girl and what she might do next. In all my years of ministry all around the world, I’d never seen anything like it,” he writes. “How could we not know how to help this little girl? We pastor a church.” Locke goes on with emphasis, “we learned that deliverance ministry will get really practical really quick and will suddenly show you what you’ve been missing in the Spirit – once you truly open your eyes.”

In Cast It Out, Locke testifies of what the Lord has done in his life and ministry and shares the biblical truth and inspired revelations God used to erase all his doubts about the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. In what he considers his most important book yet, Locke also examines how Jesus dealt with his own deliverance ministry and addresses many of the most pressing questions about deliverance in order to help equip readers to find true freedom and healing in Christ, including:

  • What the Bible says about deliverance
  • Whether Christians can be demonized
  • Popular objections to deliverance ministry
  • How Jesus taught us to deal with demons

Cast It Out will guide readers to biblically understand what is and is not part of deliverance ministry and how they can be proactively part of the most important spiritual awakening happening in our world today. “The commission to cast out evil spirits and the authority we’ve been given to do it is nothing new,” writes Locke. “But two things are simultaneously happening. First, there’s a beautiful acceleration of deliverance ministry. Second, there’s a horrific infiltration in deliverance ministry.”

In Cast It Out, Locke highlights the Bible’s teachings on deliverance and the universal call for the church to engage in this ministry. Drawing inspiration from Jesus’ dedication to casting out demons and by sharing his own journey as a new deliverance minister, Locke underscores the importance of answering this call to Christian service by all believers and provides guidance on how to take action strategically and powerfully against this enemy, in Jesus’ name. He also aims to strike a nerve in Christianity with Cast It Out, recognizing that “regardless of whether people agree with it or not, the Body of Christ will continue the vital conversation about deliverance from demonic oppression.”

Cast It Out by Pastor Greg Locke, is published by Charisma House and is available online at www.mycharismashop.com and wherever books are sold.
