Reformation Heritage Books
Acquires Soli Deo Gloria Publications

Soli Deo Gloria Publications, which has put numerous Puritan books back into print, has been acquired by Reformation Heritage Books of Grand Rapids, Michigan. For the past few years, Soli Deo Gloria books have been produced by Ligonier Ministries in Orlando, Florida. In 2007, Ligonier asked Reformation Heritage Books for guidance on managing Soli Deo Gloria Publications and later invited Reformation Heritage Books to publish and distribute Soli Deo Gloria titles.

Reformation Heritage Books has received nearly 50,000 Soli Deo Gloria books that are currently in print, and is ready to distribute them to individuals and bookstores. Plans are underway to publish numerous additional Puritan titles. Reformation Heritage Books has agreed to to continue publishing a select number of titles under the Soli Deo Gloria imprint, which Ligonier will continue to advertise in its catalogs; meanwhile, most Soli Deo Gloria titles will now be reprinted with the Reformation Heritage Books imprint. Reformation Heritage Books and Ligonier Ministries look forward to collaborating in order to promote Puritan literature around the world.

To be placed on the mailing list for catalogs that include all the Soli Deo Gloria titles (as well as the 3,000 titles from other publisher) currently available at discounted prices, contact Reformation Heritage Books, 2965 Leonard St., N.E., Grand Rapids, Michigan 49525; 616-977-0599; orders@heritagebooks.org; www.heritagebooks.org.
