Bookmasters, one of the largest providers of integrated book publishing services in the U.S., has signed an agreement with Outreach Inc. to provide sales, distribution and fulfillment in the secular U.S. and Canadian markets for their forthcoming title, The Official A.D. Study & Guidebook.

The Official A.D. Study & Guidebook is the official companion to A.D. The Bible Continues, the television series event that picks up where The Bible TV miniseries concluded in 2014 with the story of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. A.D. The Bible Continues is scheduled to air on NBC for 12 weeks beginning Easter Sunday, April 5.

Founded in 1996, Outreach Inc. has quickly grown to become the largest provider of church outreach products and services in the world. With a mission to share God’s love and empower the church to share the message of Jesus Christ, Outreach provides cost-effective, proven methods and resources in a variety of forms, including books, media and film, postcard invitations, banners, bulletin covers, curriculum, church campaign materials, and more. Located in Colorado Springs, the company has established five divisions under the umbrella of Outreach Inc.

Bookmasters will begin distributing The Official A.D. Study & Guidebook upon its publication date of Feb. 9, 2015.

“These A.D. resources create a tremendous opportunity for churches to help their members and community discover more about the powerful stories of the first followers of Christ, the rise of the early church, and what it means today,” said Scott Evans, founder and CEO of Outreach Inc. “It’s also a chance for them to reach out to the millions of people who will be watching the TV series and want to learn more about the stories they’re seeing from the book of Acts.”

“Outreach and their titles hold a unique and respected place in both the Christian and secular markets, so Bookmasters is excited to be able to partner with them on The Official A.D. Study & Guidebook,” said Ken Fultz, general manager at Bookmasters.
