The new publishing company founded by audiobook supplier eChristian has announced the acquisition of The Livingstone Corporation, the group behind scores of specialty Bibles. Details of the deal have not been disclosed.

The Livingstone team will become part of recently founded eC Publishing Group (EPG), which comprises eChristian and Mission Books imprints and eChristian’s extensive audio division.

Livingstone was founded in 1988 by the creators of the award-winning Life Application Study Bible. Named after famous missionary-explorer David Livingstone, the group has since worked on more than 100 other Bible projects and 400 books.

“We are thrilled to add the expertise of Livingstone to eChristian’s publishing and digital initiatives,” said eChristian CEO Todd Hoyt. “Livingstone is best at what they do for publishing and product development, and they will continue to serve the entire Christian publishing industry.”

Livingstone co-founder and CEO Bruce Barton said that the move would enable his team “to step up to the digital challenges that lay ahead. We are encouraged by the larger mission and impact that we can have together.”

The publisher at EPG is Christian publishing veteran Dan Balow, who joined eChristian last year. The company’s first book releases this fall—in both print and digital versions—will include eChristianBooks’ The Disciplines of the Christian Life by Eric Liddell, the Olympic runner depicted in the 1981 Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire, and Mission Books’ The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoevsky, the 19th-century Russian writer.
