Abundance Books pursues life-changing stories celebrating God’s transformational love and grace. Together with retail and distribution partners, we strive to bring excellence and innovation to the Christian book industry by developing emerging authors and publishing works that inspire, instruct, and encourage.
Genre:
- Non-fiction: memoire, Bible study, Christian living, and more.
- Fiction: adult, young adult, children’s
- Children’s: picture book, middle reader, chapter books
Recognizing the challenge emerging authors face in publishing their work, Abundance Books reserves 50% of new release titles for authors with fewer than five books in print.
