Christian publisher or self-publishing a Christian book?
A traditional Christian publisher chooses which manuscripts to take on, is highly selective, and typically takes your rights and a share of your earnings. Self-publishing keeps you in control and earns you 100% of your royalties, with you or a service like ours handling production. For the wider landscape, see our list of Christian book publishers in the USA.
