| Missions & the Global Church Winner
"Everywhere you turn, Western evangelicals are talking about post-Christianity. Some lament; others foment. In such a time as this, we stand to benefit from a global and historical perspective. Though not written to directly address these contemporary concerns, The Missionary Movement from the West by Andrew Walls offers just that, helping us see beyond our short-sighted fears."

•Author Highlight |
| Frederick Christian Bauerschmidt speaking at the Michael Ramsey Prize ceremony at Lambeth Palace Library on December 14, 2023. |
| Frederick Christian Bauerschmidt won the 2023 Michael Ramsey Prize with his book, The Love That Is God: An Invitation to Christian Faith!
"When I was writing The Love That Is God, I thought a lot about not just what I wanted to say, but also how I wanted to say it; I wanted to write something for a wide audience that was neither simplistic nor condescending in tone. Winning the Michael Ramsey Prize is particularly gratifying, since it suggests that I succeeded in writing something that would be accessible and also make a contribution to the life of the church. I am grateful to the judges' panel for selecting my book, to my wife for her editing skills, and to the folks at Eerdmans for their outstanding work in bringing the book to publication."

•Meet Our Staff |
In his role as vice president and editor-in-chief, James Ernest leads the acquisitions department. He's been with Eerdmans since June 2015 and holds degrees from Wheaton College, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, Boston University, and Boston College.

| What's your New Year's resolution? I'm keeping it simple this year with a rudimentary trifecta: Go to bed at 10 p.m. Read the NRSVue all the way through in daily bits. Lose 5 pounds by getting at least 15 minutes of cardio every morning.
Do you have any pets? I have my cute and disobedient Welsh Terrier, Maisie. We're expecting her second (and last) little of adorable puppers in February.
What are you currently reading? I am always reading proposals and manuscripts for work, and lots of other things simultaneously and slowly. One thing I'm focusing on right now is the history of the Israel/Palestine conflict. At the moment I'm halfway through James Gelvin's CUP textbook (4th edition). |
