Speaking & Signings
Every book we publish began as a story someone believed could make a difference. Our authors carry that story best in person—at a signing table, in front of a congregation, at a conference podium, or around a book-club circle.
Browse the authors below, then tell us about your event. We'll check availability, coordinate the details with you, and make sure there are books on hand for readers who want to take the conversation home.
Author of Grace & Peace
A pastor for more than four decades—nearly twenty years as senior pastor of First United Methodist Church of Fort Worth—Tim Bruster brings East Texas humor and a pastor's warmth to conversations about everyday faith.
Author of You Don't Know Sheep
A veteran of professional theater and live production who has presented at NAB, InfoComm, and the American Institute of Architects, David McCauley gives faith leaders unconventional, practical ways to reach the people in the room.
Speaking for It All Belongs
Roy Smoot wrote the Nautilus-, IPPY-, and Illumination-winning It All Belongs with Judy Smoot. On his own or together with June Smoot, he speaks with candor and hope about love, caregiving, grief, and learning to live again.
Author of HaikuYou
A board-certified chiropractor trained in Chinese medicine and the martial arts, Janette Kurban brings the stillness of haiku and the Five Elements to audiences looking for peace in chaotic times.

Send the request form below with your date, place, audience, and what you have in mind. Not sure which author fits? Say so—we'll suggest one.
We check the author's availability and come back to you with format, timing, and any fee or travel arrangements, so everything is agreed in writing before the date.
We coordinate books for signing and sale—through your local bookstore, your own order, or directly from us—plus a photo, bio, and one-sheet for your promotion.
As early as you can. Four to six weeks is usually enough for a signing or book club; conferences and keynotes do best with three to six months.
It depends on the author, the format, and the travel. Tell us your budget—including if it's book sales only—and we'll tell you plainly what's possible.
Many can. Book clubs, podcasts, classes, and small groups often work beautifully by video. Choose "Virtual" on the form.
Your venue or a local bookseller can sell books, you can order copies in advance, or we can arrange sales at the event. We'll sort it out together when we confirm.
Yes, please. Use the form and choose "Book signing"—we'll confirm ordering, returns, and promotion with you directly.
