“I forgive you.” These are simple words, but hard ones. Perhaps they are words you just can’t bring yourself to say. Has someone harmed you so deeply you cannot imagine releasing them of their debt to you? Or perhaps these are words you long to hear. Have you harmed a loved one? Does restoring the relationship seem impossible?... continue reading
“All Scripture is breathed out by God,” Paul famously wrote to Timothy (2 Timothy 3:16). The Bible is not a human product infused with divinity; it’s a divine gift produced through human instrumentality. Its every book, chapter, sentence, and syllable was originally given by God’s inspiration.... continue reading
Over recent years we have witnessed the fall of a significant number of church leaders from many different backgrounds. The reasons have varied from one case to another, but often there have been issues of illicit sexuality, mishandling of finances, abuse of power and authority, and substance abuse, among a few others.

We are all about books here at The Good Book Company. Books that serve Christians of all ages by being biblical, relevant and accessible. We also, from time to time, read books from other publishers too (I know, shocking).
2021 appears to have been the year for the TGBC team to brush up on their history, whether that be taking a deep dive into ancient Rome, or following a voyage to Egypt to uncover hidden Bible manuscripts. Amongst our suggestions, we hope you’ll find plenty of inspiration to get stuck into a book this coming year.
So, without further ado, here’s what our staff have loved reading in 2021.... continue reading
If I told you to write down all that you’ve been anxious about this week, or even today, I imagine you would have a substantial list. I know I would. And yet the word of God says to us, “Do not be anxious about anything.” How, then, are we to respond when we find ourselves feeling choked in a battle with anxiety?... continue reading
We’re so grateful to God for our team, authors, partners and customers. It’s amazing to get to serve alongside so many brothers and sisters in Christ to the glory of God, whether the books we’re sharing are teaching kids about prayer, offering healing hope for the fatherless, or strengthening adults to stand firm in the faith.
This year, we’re also giving thanks for several awards received in 2021. Will you celebrate with us?... continue reading
It may not be 2022 quite yet, but we’re already looking forward to leaving the old behind (looking at you, Omicron) and moving on to what’s ahead. If you’re looking to make New Year’s resolutions or just to start fresh in some areas of life in 2022, here are some of our favorite reads to help you make meaningful progress.... continue reading
2021 marked The Good Book Company’s 30th birthday! For three decades we’ve published biblical, relevant and accessible resources that point to “the Good Book," the Bible. And that's still our mission today. ... continue reading
Spending time with family can be, well, hard. Even if you have great relationships with the people you spend your holidays with, they may have expectations you can’t (or don’t want to) live up to. You may get picked on for being the youngest, or the oldest, or otherwise black sheep-ish.... continue reading
Some days my daughter's eyes visibly widen and her brow furrows as she searches my face to learn the answer to her pressing question. I can feel it coming before the words leave her mouth: “Are you ok mum?” she quizzes me, her face just centimetres from my own. “Do you need to go to bed?” Can I get you something?" My stomach tightens as I reach for words of reassurance and distraction.... continue reading
