‘Astonishing’ success to benefit Scripture-distribution ministry
“It is astonishing to see what the Lord is accomplishing with the ESV Bible in general, and with the ESV Study Bible in particular,” said Crossway President Lane Dennis. “In addition to the 1 million ESV Study Bible milestone, more than 90 million ESV Bibles have now been distributed and accessed worldwide in all formats, including print, web and digital.” First published in 2008, the ESV Study Bible was the recipient of the Christian Book of the Year award from the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association and the WORLD Magazine Book of the Year award, both presented to Crossway in 2009. The study Bible was created under the leadership of J.I. Packer, theological editor, and Wayne Grudem, general editor, along with a team of more than 90 evangelical scholars and teachers. It was also the first study Bible to be simultaneously published in print and digital formats, and Crossway includes free online access with the purchase of any print copy. The study Bible is now available in more than 30 print editions and formats, as well as in multiple digital editions, including the iOS mobile app, e-book formats and global online access. |
