Philosophy Professor Phillip Cary Affirms Ancient Text’s Relevance for Today

BELLINGHAM, Wash., April 10, 2023 — To help believers articulate their faith in God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, seasoned author, philosopher and professor Phillip Cary has released “The Nicene Creed: An Introduction,” available now from Lexham Press.

For centuries, the Nicene Creed has been central to the Christian Church’s confession. Far from being abstract or irrelevant, the words of the Creed carefully express what God has done in Christ and through the Spirit and gives biblical Christians words for what they believe.

“The Nicene Creed is a summary of the Gospel of Jesus Christ,” said Cary. “It brings me great joy, and I wanted to make that joy accessible to those who may be unfamiliar with it.”

One of the most famous and influential professions of faith in the history of the church, the biblically inspired Creed encapsulates the entire good news of the gospel and ultimately settles the question of how Christians can worship one God who is three persons. In “The Nicene Creed: An Introduction,” Cary explores the Creed’s riches with simplicity and clarity, explaining its history and meaning line by line.

Offering precise and profound insight, Cary invites readers to gain a fresh appreciation for how the Nicene Creed came to be and why it is still relevant today. As an astute student of the Bible, he successfully brings meaning back to the Creed for those from more liturgical traditions for whom it has become rote, while also introducing it to those from more evangelical, contemporary churches who may not be as familiar with it.

Cary asserts that when we profess the Creed, we join the global Church throughout history in declaring the name and work of the one God — Father, Son and Spirit.

Adds Cary, “This is a book for those who want to understand their faith better, and thus to grow in the knowledge of God, by learning what the ancient teachers of the Nicene faith had to give us.”

Praised as an essential addition to the libraries of Christians, “The Nicene Creed: An Introduction” is available now from Lexham Press. For more information, visit https://lexhampress.com/product/224267/the-nicene-creed-an-introduction.

About Lexham Press:  Lexham Press seeks to increase biblical literacy, thoughtful Christian reflection, and faithful action around the world by publishing a range of Bible study materials, scholarly works, and pastoral resources. For information, visit lexhampress.com.

About Phillip Cary: Phillip Cary is professor of philosophy at Eastern University in Philadelphia and author of several books, including “Good News for Anxious Christians” and “The Meaning of Protestant Theology.”

Bible-Smart™: Matthew is NOT Your Grandpappy’s Kind of Commentary!

April 10, 2023 — Get ready for a sea change in Bible reference publishing: On April 18, 2023, Rose Publishing (an imprint of Tyndale House), will release the first ever Bible-Smart™ commentary by bestselling and award-winning theologian, Mike Nappa.

“I wanted to create a coffee-shop conversation about the Bible, not a sermon,” says Nappa. “I’m really tired of how weird people get when talking about Scripture, and one day I thought, ‘Somebody should do something about that.’ Some weeks later it dawned on me, ‘Maybe I should do something about that.’ The result was Bible-Smart: Matthew.”

First, Nappa asked a group of Facebook friends to read chapters from the gospel of Matthew and send him any questions that came to mind. Next, he did the same himself, compiling and curating questions into a long list of chapter-by-chapter, passage-by-passage sections. Then came the fun part. Mike Nappa started digging for answers to the questions in this list, writing “coffee-shop theology” segments about them, and creating a new kind of commentary for our generation—Q&A for the Curious Soul.

Along the way he opened the doors to seminary scholarship for everyday pew-sitters. Bible-Smart: Matthew utilizes more than a dozen Bible-exposition styles including:

• Archaeological insights,
• Bible difficulties,
• Cross-reference comparisons,
• Cultural commentary,
• Factual info,
• Geographical backgrounds,
• Historical context,
• Inductive studies,
• Literary influences,
• Personality and character studies,
• Rhetorical influences,
• Symbolic meanings,
• Theological commentary, and
• Word studies.

Bible-Smart: Matthew also includes a heartfelt “Shoutout to Pastor Chuck,”—a thank-you to Nappa’s former pastor and ministry mentor, Dr. Charles R. Swindoll.

But be warned: “Bible-Smart: Matthew ain’t your grandpappy’s stuffy, old commentary book,” Nappa says. “This is a 21st-Century spiritual-growth experience created just for you and me—a relaxed conversation for everyday pew-sitters who just want to discover more of Jesus as revealed in God’s Word. No seminary degree necessary.”

Upon release on April 18, Bible-Smart™: Matthew will be available wherever books are sold. Advance copies are currently available to members of the media, and Mike Nappa is available for interviews upon request.

ABOUT MIKE NAPPA:  Mike Nappa is a practical theologian known for writing and “coffee-shop theology” and Christian Living books. He’s a bestselling and award-winning author with millions of copies of his works sold worldwide. An Arab-American, Mike is proud to be a person of color (BIPOC) active in Christian publishing.

Warrior Mother: Equipping Your Heart to Fight for Your Families Faith

“A precious, hard-won, battle-tested companion for Christian mothers who seek to stand in their God-given authority.”
-Quantrilla Ard, PhD, author, speaker, and podcaster

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.—It’s not easy raising faithful kids in the world today— parents often don’t know what to do – so what if mothers started with their own hearts? In her new release Warrior Mother: Equipping Your Heart to Fight for Your Families Faith,  Victoria Riollano has written more than just another book on parenting, she has written the ultimate guidebook on being the warrior mother your children need. Riollano shows moms how to first seek their own spiritual transformation, then pass that along to their children. Moms will love her authentic examples,  and the sharing of her life, plus she has an educational background in child and adolescent psychology. Warrior Mother will quickly become the book they go back to time and time again at all stages of their kids’ lives— but more importantly, their own.

From the very first chapter, where she talks about an enemy that will stop at nothing to destroy, she starts to equip mothers with everything they need to be the first line of defense in the lives of their children. Warrior Mother, isn’t written to make moms feel good about their parenting, but it is the ultimate guide to challenge, motivate and  empower mothers who are out in the field every day.

“I could not be more excited about the release of Warrior Mother! I believe every mother should know that she is enough, and that God is with her as she faces the emotional and spiritual battles of parenting. My heart is that this book will equip mothers to show up to their parenting journey with confidence and complete reliance on Christ!.”

Warrior Mother is full of impactful and powerful information to equip mothers for the times we are in. Riollano ends each chapter with Victory Verses, Reflections, and a Power Prayer, so readers can take away a tool from every chapter. No matter what phase a mother in from infants to children all grown up, Warrior Mother is the tool that will help them go to their own source, Jesus, in order to guide and equip their children every day.

Fiction Meets Real World Reality in Chilling Suspense

“Perfect title. Perfect setting. Perfectly crafted story. I could NOT put it down. This one goes on your keeper shelf because you’ll want to read it again and again. Can’t wait for the next one!”
-Lynette Eason, best-selling and award-winning author

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.— Faithful readers and soon-to-be fans of Kimberley Woodhouse will be excited to see her newest release 26 Below, the very first book in the Alaskan Cyber Hunters series. Woodhouse brings a personal element to 26 Below, because it is based in Alaska, her favorite state, where she once made her home. She did extensive research for this book, which puts main characters Darcie and Jason in the middle of a cyber security nightmare. Woodhouse’s  son-in-law, a West Point graduate, who has been on post at the Army Cyber Institute was also part of her extensive research. She credits him with helping her get a true working view of cyber security, and the many amazing people who work behind the scenes to keep the country safe.  While 26 Below is fiction, many of the details are chillingly real to the times we are living in today.

What would happen if temperatures fell to 26 below? Woodhouse wastes no time in taking readers on a wild ride of suspense, and adventure. Main characters Darcie Phillips and Jason Myers must work together and find answers quick. Woodhouse  ties in characters with a  flawless story of the modern world, and the reality of cyberthreats.

“The idea for this story has been in my heart and mind since 2009. Over the years it has grown as technology advanced and the need for cyber security increased. I can’t wait to get 26 Below into readers’ hands.” Says Woodhouse.

26 Below is the perfect novel to toss in a spring or summer getaway bag. Woodhouse has written a book that will fascinate and challenge  all at the same time. Readers  won’t want to miss her Note from the Author at the end of the book, where she also includes a sneak peak at 8 Down, the next book in the Alaskan Cyber Hunters series coming Fall 2023.

Kimberley Woodhouse is the best-selling author of more than thirty books and novellas, including A Deep Divide, Bridge of Gold, and The Mayflower Bride, as well as the coauthor of the Heart of Alaska series with Tracie Peterson. Kimberley’s writing has earned a Carol Award, the Christian Market Novel of the Year, the Holt Medallion, and many others.

Brian Allain founded PIC in 2018 as part of Writing for Your Life, in order to increase the number of writers in Christian publishing who are Black and indigenous people of color (BIPOC).

PIC provides scholarships for a select number of attendees to experience its conferences, and offers a stream of free publishing information and tools through regular email newsletters and social media content.

Literary agents Jevon Bolden, Barb Roose, Karen Neumair, Greg Johnson, Rachelle Gardner, and Sharon Norris Elliott are among those who have invested in conference workshops and appointments to open access to publishing to attendees.

Joyce Dinkins says, “In my role as an executive editor at Our Daily Bread Ministries 2015–2023, I have had the privilege of acquiring diverse writers, and developing resources by Black content creators and some Hispanic writers through VOICES. I’ve acquired Black Americans, AfroCanadian, Hispanic, and Asian writers for Our Daily Bread Ministries through PIC gatherings in New Brunswick, New Jersey; Los Angeles; Chicago; and through PIC’s virtual conferences. I hope to build on Brian Allain’s leadership and hard work, to carry PIC forward, and I am trusting in God’s grace as He works through our publishing community.” 

“I am thrilled that Joyce Dinkins will now lead Publishing in Color,” Brian Allain said. “It has been an honor to start the program and lead it through its first ten conferences. I have greatly appreciated the outstanding contributions from our publishing industry experts and conference attendees.” Kate Rademacher adds, “We are blessed to have Joyce Dinkins own and lead Publishing in Color. I look forward to continued collaboration with Joyce to help advance Publishing in Color’s goals.”

Joyce Dinkins is a member of the Evangelical Christian Publishing Association (ECPA) subcommittee on diversity, equity, and inclusion; an ECPA Emerging Leader mentor; and associate director of the board of the Academy of Christian Editors.
