Recently, Illative House Press announced that Bellator Christi Founder Dr. Brian Chilton assumed a new role with the new publishing house as their new Editor-in-Chief of Acquisitions. Dr. Chilton will work with new authors to help them craft their book ideas into new books for the publishing house. Dr. Chilton said, “I believe in the work and ministry of Illative House Press. I believe IHP will set a new standard for publications moving forward. They are Christ-centered and seek to help Christian authors get their works into the hands of those who would benefit from their research.”
With Dr. T. J. Gentry and Dr. Brian Chilton joining forces with this new venture, this creates a new partnership between Bellator Christi and IHP. We are all excited to see how God blesses this new joint partnership in the years ahead. We all believe that God has big plans for both Bellator Christi and Illative House Press.
Bellator Christi will feature advertisements for IHP on the podcast for Season 8 and will help promote the books that come through Illative House Press. Additionally, Bellator Christi will feature a new link on the site so that you can readily access IHP and their book proposal page.
God is up to some great things! Onward and upward, my friends!
