One of Christian publishing's most celebrated writers is being introduced to new readers, thanks to a variety of new resources from different publishers.

New titles and revised studies from Warren W. Wiersbe--an internationally known Bible teacher, broadcaster, former pastor of the Moody Church in Chicago and author of more than 150 books--are being published by David C. Cook, Baker Books and CLC Publications.

In September, Cook released The Transformation Study Bible, comprising commentary from the 50-plus books in the popular "BE" Bible commentaries spanning 30 years. In January, the publisher also began releasing revised editions of the "BE" books as well as four new companion titles in "The Wiersbe Bible Study Series."

Two new books, Too Soon to Quit! (CLC Publications)--about finishing well--and On Earth as It Is in Heaven (Baker Books/Baker Publishing Group)--a look at the Lord's prayer--released in February.

Last summer at the International Christian Retail Show, Wiersbe was honored with a CBA Life Impact Award in recognition of his "devotion to Christ and faithfulness to God's Word," as a result of which "multiplied millions of believers around the globe have discovered the glory of God and have seen Christ come to life in relevant ways."

Now 81, Wiersbe is at work on another new book, focusing on the "I am" statements of God from the Bible. Release date, title and publisher have not yet been announced.
