HarperCollins Christian Publishing President and CEO

Dear Friends:

Welcome to the HarperCollins Christian Publishing corporate website.  Thank you for your interest in our company and its products. HarperCollins Christian Publishing is a division of HarperCollins U.S. and is comprised of two publishing groups:  Thomas Nelson, Inc. and Zondervan.  Among these two groups are some of the most well-known names and resources within the Christian faith-based segment.

HarperCollins Christian Publishing is a multi-platform content provider, creating inspirational products in formats that fit the needs of our audience.  The company has nearly 300 years of combined experience in the Christian publishing segment, with products translated in nearly 200 languages and distribution in more than 100 countries.  Our mission is simple: “Inspire the world by promoting Biblical principles and meeting the needs of people with resources that glorify Jesus Christ.”  We believe that our foundation is firmly rooted in this mission, encompassing our purpose and niche within the marketplace.

We believe the key to our future rests with the children of today.   Tommy Nelson and Zonderkidz are two well-known children’s brands within HarperCollins Christian Publishing.  Tommy Nelson and Zonderkidz are focused on nurturing the hearts and minds of our youth and inspiring them through imagination and innovation.  These award-winning teams encourage Godly relationships to flourish.

In addition to publishing traditional and digital materials, HarperCollins Christian Publishing operates a live events team which manages the Women of Faith brand and its nationwide tours aimed at reaching women with God’s unchanging message of love and grace. The Revolve Tour, a spin-off event tour designed for pre-teen and teenage girls, teaches these future decision-makers the importance of living a God-filled life. Live Event Management, Inc. is the largest producer of Christian live events in the United States. To date these events have reached over five million women via more than 500 events.

Bible Gateway, an online tool encouraging Bible reading and Scriptural understanding for twenty years, receives more than 13 million unique visitors on its website per month.  Visitors can experience free access to the Bible in more than 70 languages and 165 different translations.

HarperCollins Christian Publishing has a vision and mission that we believe makes our content exceptional, and has led to multiple award-winning recognitions, best-selling content and long-lasting consumer relationships.  With two publishing groups deeply rooted in heritage, offering  two unique editorial focuses and grounded in a common mission, this company is constantly searching for new and innovative ways to provide resources for all ages and stages of life. I encourage you to explore this website to familiarize yourself with the HarperCollins Christian Publishing family.

Thank you for your interest.

Blessings,
Mark Schoenwald, President and CEO
