Welcome to Baker Publishing Group

The mission of Baker Publishing Group is to publish writings that promote historic Christianity, irenically express the concerns of evangelicalism, and reflect the diversity of this movement. Its books are well conceived, competently written, and handsomely produced. They furnish resources to all - from individuals to families, from laypeople to pastors, from collegians to seminarians - who seek to live for the Lord and worship him.

Bethany House Publishers has been publishing high quality books for more than 50 years. Bethany House publishes nearly 120 titles annually across such varied subjects as Christian living, family, health, devotional, children's, classics, and theology. However they are widely recognized as pioneering publishers of Christian fiction, with a huge selection across a wide range of genres from historical fiction to hi-octane thrillers.

The purpose of Bethany House is to help Christians apply biblical truth in all areas of life—whether through a well-told story, a challenging devotional, or the message of an illustrated children's book. Bethany’s staff are diligently committed to offering the best in editing, design and marketing to make each book as inspiring, challenging, enjoyable and attractive as it can be.

Revell began over 125 years ago to respond to the need for practical books that would help bring the Christian faith to everyday life. Revell has developed consistently solid lists which have enjoyed the presence of many notable Christian writers over the years. This same vision for books that are both inspirational and practical continues to motivate the Revell publishing group today. Whether publishing fiction, Christian living, self-help, marriage, family, or youth books, each Revell publication reflects relevance, integrity, and excellence.

Baker Books has a vision for building up the body of Christ through books that are relevant, intelligent, and engaging. Baker Books publish titles for lay Christians on topics such as discipleship, spirituality, encouragement, relationships, marriage, parenting, and the intersection of Christianity and culture. They also publish books and ministry resources for pastors and church leaders, concentrating on topics such as preaching, worship, pastoral ministries, counselling, and leadership.

Ever since the early 70s Chosen Books has been publishing powerful books that help millions to live the Spirit-filled life. Attracting evangelicals and charismatics, those in the ministry and laypeople, books published by Chosen help believers to better know and love the Lord Jesus Christ; to pray about the concerns that are on God's heart; to be empowered by his Spirit for ministry; to fulfil the Great Commission; and to transform their communities and their world.

Lion Hudson is proud to represent The Baker Publishing Group in the UK.

Lion Hudson plc resulted from the merger in December 2003 of Lion Publishing plc and Angus Hudson Ltd. The merger created the largest independent publisher of books inspired by the Christian faith and its values in the UK. The company is owned by more than 800 individual and institutional investors.

Lion Publishing was founded in 1971 in order to publish books about Christianity for general and international marketplaces. Angus Hudson founded his imprint in 1977 to publish international co-editions for Christian communities around the world. In the 1990s his company acquired the Candle imprint of children’s books in the UK and then the Monarch range of books for adults.

Lion Hudson thus publishes books under four different imprints. Lion and Lion Children’s Books take Christian values into the general marketplace; Candle and Monarch support Christian families, individuals and communities in their devotional and spiritual lives. The company’s books sell all round the world, international co-editions being a particular strength. More than 60% of turnover is earned in export markets and titles have been translated into more than 170 different languages.

In recent years Lion and Angus Hudson books have won numerous prizes including the Smarties prize for children’s fiction (for Pauline Fisk’s Midnight Blue), the Angouleme International Graphic Book Festival award (for The Lion Graphic Bible), and 20 separate prizes at the annual UK Christian Booksellers Convention.
