About
The company describes its mission as providing resources that emphasize the relational aspects of faith, between God and people, between teachers and students, and among Christians in the world, rather than what it calls “simple fact regurgitation.” It states the principle that “God’s Word, although recorded thousands of years ago, is both timeless and quite relevant to us today.” The company also emphasizes personalized customer service, stating that customers reach “real people, not robotic or canned responses.” With a founding date of 1938, the organization presents itself as a long-established publisher within its faith tradition.
