A variety of new products from best-selling author Francis Chan and a modernized version of The Picture Bible are being highlighted in Christian Retailing's Virtual Christian Retailing Show.

Running through Labor Day, Sept. 6, the show is hosted by Christian Retailing magazine, aiming to help stores set themselves for the fall and Christmas seasons with product news, order specials and training. It is the magazine's fourth virtual trade event since debuting the innovative program following last year's ICRS.

Marilyn Largent, David C. Cook's senior director of trade sales, guides retailers through some of the company's new releases in a short video at the company's virtual show booth. Products highlighted at the booth include new material from Joni Eareckson Tada in A Place of Healing; new fiction from Nancy Rue, The Reluctant Prophet; Nudge: Awakening Each Other to the God Who's Already There, a book on evangelism by Leonard Sweet; teen novel Solitary by Travis Thrasher; and Spiritual Parenting by Michelle Anthony.

More than 30 suppliers--including Thomas Nelson, Tyndale House Publishers and Baker Publishing Group--have signed up to participate in the Virtual Christian Retailing Show, with their "booths" presenting details of key new and recent releases and offering links for ordering and catalogs.

Additional features include Christian Retailing editors hosting roundtable discussions with suppliers and retailers on trends, including movies and DVDs. Access to the online event is free.
