New Leaf Publishing Group author and pastor Shannon O'Dell challenges status-quo thinking in his new book, Transforming Church in Rural America, one of many titles spotlighted in Christian Retailing's Virtual Christian Retailing Show.

Running through Labor Day, Sept. 6, the show is hosted by Christian Retailing magazine, aiming to help stores set themselves for the fall and Christmas seasons with product news, order specials and training. It is the magazine's fourth virtual trade event since debuting the innovative program following last year's ICRS.

Among the other New Leaf titles spotlighted are Deadly Disclosures, a novel by Julie Cave; Life of Washington, a historic biography by Anna C. Reed; Dinosaurs for Kids by Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis; The Children's Illustrated Bible by Selina Hastings and illustrated by Eric Thomas; and 10 Things Every Minister's Wife Needs to Know by Jeana Floyd.

More than 30 suppliers-including Thomas Nelson, Tyndale House Publishers, Baker Publishing Group and David C. Cook-had signed up to participate in the Virtual Christian Retailing Show, with their "booths" presenting details of key new and recent releases and offering links for ordering and catalogs.

Additional features include Christian Retailing editors hosting roundtable discussions with suppliers and retailers on trends, including movies and DVDs. "Is God Just a Human Invention?," a free Webinar with authors Sean McDowell and Jonathan Morrow, is scheduled for Aug. 2. Access to the online event is free, with visiting retailers also eligible for a drawing to win an Apple iPad.
