NSBT Press Release: A New Publishing Partner for the New Studies in Biblical Theology

This well-established series, edited by D.A. Carson and Benjamin L. Gladd, contains over 60 volumes released between 1995 and 2024. Beginning in 2025, B&H Academic will serve as the publisher of the NSBT in the United States and Canada, while Apollos will remain the series’ publisher throughout the rest of the world. The similar visions of both B&H Academic and Apollos to strengthen the church through biblically sound resources form the backbone of this partnership.

“The New Studies in Biblical Theology is one of the most recognizable series in biblical studies, widely respected for its excellence and its fruitful contribution to biblical understanding,” said Madison Trammel, publisher of B&H Academic. “So many pastors, students, and scholars have benefited from its exploration of biblical books and themes. The B&H Academic team is honored to be entrusted with the NSBT series in North America, and we look forward to partnering with Apollos in relaunching it for its next 30 years of faithful study in service to the church.”

The New Studies in Biblical Theology series addresses key issues in the discipline of biblical theology for instruction and edification, but ultimately as a creative attempt to help Christians understand better:

• 1) the nature and status of biblical theology, including its relationship to other disciplines
• 2) the articulation and exposition of the structure of thought from a particular biblical writer or text
• 3) the delineation of a biblical theme across the biblical corpus

Thomas Creedy, Publishing Director at Inter-Varsity Press, and internal editor on the NSBT series for Apollos, said:

“I’m delighted to be partnering with B&H Academic for the next phase of the NSBT. We are so grateful to our friends at IVP Academic for sharing in the ministry of NSBT to date, but we are excited to see how B&H Academic will expand the series reach, broaden the author base, and help the church continue to dig deep into the glorious riches of Scripture”

Series editors Carson and Gladd said:

“Working on the NSBT series has been a profound gift from God, and we pray for the increase in its readership and influence with this new partnership with B&H Academic. We are glad to see the continued interest and passion for the series from American pastors in particular.”

We at Apollos are looking forward with B&H Academic to the Evangelical Theological Society annual meeting in November, where they will announce which titles will be released in 2025. For inquiries regarding those event, please email Dakota Rice (dakota.rice@lifeway.com).
