LifeWay Global and its B&H Publishing Español division, in its growing Hispanic impact, garnered a dozen awards — more than any other publisher — at the Spanish Evangelical Publishers Association’s (SEPA) awards banquet Aug. 7.
The annual event recognizes the highest quality and excellence in the publication, sale and marketing of Spanish Christian literature.
“This is about more than just publishing, it’s equipping the saints for every good work,” said Craig Featherstone, director of LifeWay Global, citing Ephesians 4:12.
Giancarlo Montemayor, manager of Spanish editorial at LifeWay Christian Resources, described the awards recognition as a sign of greater ministry impact.
“We’re thrilled to take part in putting Bible-saturated content into the hands of Christians and non-Christians all around the world.” Montemayor said. “Part of the story these awards tell is that we’re indeed achieving this goal.”
The top SEPA award for “Best Original Book in Spanish” went to LifeWay Global and B&H Español for “Siervos Para Su Gloria” (Servants for His Glory) by Miguel Núñez.
