Crossway and The Gospel Coalition (TGC) have announced a significant expansion of their publishing partnership, which began six years ago.

"There are only a handful of organizations whose leadership is committed to producing gospel-centered resources at a level that we trust," said Ben Peays, executive director of TGC. "Crossway has been a close partner of ours since our inception in 2007. We are pleased to deepen our publishing partnership with them going forward."

Justin Taylor, Crossway's publisher for books, added: "The Gospel Coalition is one of the most important and influential organizations in today's evangelicalism, serving churches with resources for reformation and renewal. It is an enormous privilege for Crossway to strengthen this publishing partnership with TGC, and we look forward to producing many unique books together that will create new conversations and provide direction on the things that matter most."

In the new partnership, Crossway will continue to publish TGC resources dedicated to the centrality of the gospel. TGC and Crossway will also work closely together to develop a series of books written specifically by women addressing cultural issues, as well as other "unique resources" focused on faith and work, said officials for both companies.

TGC Editorial Director Collin Hansen will oversee the effort alongside three other editors. TGC Director of Women's Initiatives Kathleen Nielson, The Park Forum founder Bethany Jenkins and Crossway author Gloria Furman will edit the book series, which will be written by women.

Since 2009, Crossway and TGC have produced 18 books, including Don't Call It a Comeback, edited by Kevin DeYoung; The Scriptures Testify about Me, edited by D.A. Carson; and The Gospel as Center, edited by D.A. Carson and Timothy Keller.
