Fireproof Your Marriage Participant's Guide by Jennifer Dion (Outreach); 8. Fireproof by Eric Wilson (Thomas Nelson); 9. Crazy Love by Francis Chan (David C. Cook); and 10. Jesus Calling by Sarah Young (Thomas Nelson).

The top 10 Bibles for May are: 1. Text Bible-NKJV (Thomas Nelson); 2. Outreach New Testament-ESV (Crossway Books & Bibles); 3. Operation Worship Bible-NLT (Tyndale House Publishers); 4. The Chronological Study Bible-NKJV (Thomas Nelson); 5. Adventure Bible-NIV (hardcover, Zonderkidz/Zondervan); 6. The VeggieTales Bible-NIV (hardcover, Zonderkidz/Zondervan); 7.
