Crossway (previously known by its parent ministry Good News Publishers) is a not-for-profit evangelical Christian publishing ministry headquartered in Wheaton, Illinois.[1] Clyde and Muriel Dennis founded Good News Publishers in 1938, working out of their home in Minneapolis, Minnesota.[2]
Crossway is best known for publishing the English Standard Version (ESV) Bible, along with evangelical Christian books. It claims to have distributed more than 290 million ESV Bibles and 1 billion tracts.[3]
Crossway
In late 1978, Good News Publishers began expanding its reach by establishing Crossway, a publishing division.[4] Beginning under the leadership of Lane T. Dennis (Clyde and Muriel's son), Crossway claims that it has published more than 1,500 titles, including books "by Francis A. Schaeffer, Martyn Lloyd-Jones, John Piper, John MacArthur, Paul David Tripp, Jen Wilkin, J. I. Packer, Chuck Colson, Frank Peretti, Max Lucado, Joni Eareckson Tada, and D. A. Carson."[2]
In 2012, Good News Publishers and the American Tract Society entered into a joint publishing agreement regarding publication and distribution of gospel tracts throughout North America.[5]
ESV Bible translation
In 2001, Crossway published the ESV translation of the Bible.[6] The ESV translation committee describes the ESV as a translation that is "essentially literal", following a "word-for-word" philosophy.[7]
According to Crossway, the publishing team behind the ESV "has included more than a hundred people."[7]
In 2008, Crossway published the ESV Study Bible.[8]
In 2016, Crossway made headlines after announcing that the ESV text would be "unchanged forever, in perpetuity" as a "permanent text" edition.[9] After public discourse about the policy, Crossway announced that it would reverse the decision.[10]
