2008 CHRISTIANITY TODAY BOOK AWARDS

For two decades, the annual Christianity Today Book Awards have recognized outstanding volumes that shed light on people, events, and ideas that shape evangelical life, thought, and mission. This year, 49 publishers nominated 359 titles published in 2007. Rather than naming one overall winner, CT editors selected the top books in each category, and then panels of judges—one panel per category—voted. They chose 10 winners and also recognized 11 awards of merit.

An online link to the awards—including judges’ comments and other resources is available at http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct.
