Publish Your Christian Book - Helping Christian Writers Become Authors
CBM Christian Book Publishing, helping Christian authors publish their Christian books to the Glory of God. At CBM Christian Book Publishing we can assist you in all the phases of the publishing of your book and save you lots of money in the process.
The Christian book publishing industry is complex. Many times authors simply visit a Christian book publishing site, view the various book publishing packages, see all the check marks with the add ons and sign on spending $3,000.00 to $5,000.00 not even understanding what they are getting. Once their Christian book is published they soon find out that their publisher offers very little in the area of author promotions and book marketing.
At CBM Christian Book Publishing, we can create a custom tailored publishing package to fit each author's individual needs. We also offer extensive Christian Book Marketing Packages to help you get the word out about your new book release.
Christian Author Robert H. Kono
Westward Lies the Sun (A Novel) by Robert H. Kono is an epic novel blending historical fiction of the Japanese internment camps during WWII with the grandeur of love, romance, legacy, Samurai and Japanese heritage with the question of God and the reality of the spiritual realm.
The novel unfolds revealing Greg, his life and past, as the author captures each time period of his life well. Greg’s conversations with his friends and his own self-doubt being a Japanese American experiencing his own subculture being Japanese, which has caused Greg to question his own self-worth stemming from teenage years.
Feeling culturally divided coupled with the trauma he had to endure throughout his growing up years, he feels displaced culturally. “He felt as though he were a pioneer or explorer, out to hack his way through the wilderness of the identity question.” (p. 11) This is just an example of the writer’s way of conveying this mental tug-of-war within the main character, Greg.
From a Christian perspective, the novel speaks on Greg’s personal reflections upon God, His existence and why bad things happen upon the Earth without cramming the Christian religion down one’s throat. This is much appreciated as the author gives enough information and Scripture to just make readers “think for themselves.”
Greg, as a staunch humanist, spends time with his four friends at their poker games that reveal much conversation about God. The book reveals a dark past for Greg and his family, being of Japanese descent during WWII and the horror of the camps. Their only crime, being Japanese, Greg reveals the loss of a family heirloom, in which he goes searching for. The epic continues as Greg and his family survive a shipwreck on an island, which ends up giving them life amid their tragedy. This book is a movie in the making with a dreamy, mysterious, and memorable title!
With a beautiful ending, surprises and twists along the way, the book keeps the attention of readers. I was hooked from chapter one. The beautiful descriptions of the lake and the cultural tensions that the Japanese experienced during the time of WWII provide an interesting backdrop. The author gives readers a true appreciation for family, love, patriotism, combined with dark overtones of racism prevalent during the WWII era, while also sharing Christianity in such a way that makes sense, giving equity a voice.
An absolutely fascinating novel with an epic title made for the big screen!

Author Christopher D. Stanley
Christopher D. Stanley, a New
Testament scholar who specializes in the social and religious history of early
Christianity, brings the world of Paul and the early church to life in his new
historical fiction trilogy, “A Slave’s Story.” Read on to see how
you can win a free Kindle copy of the first book in the series!
The first two books, A Rooster for Asklepios and A
Bull for Pluto, follow the lives of two men at opposite ends of the social
structure, a slave and an aristocrat, as they journey across first-century Asia
Minor (modern Turkey) in a desperate quest for healing. The third
book (not yet written) will take the main characters to Israel in the years
leading up to the Jewish revolt against the Romans in 66-73
AD.
Religion—Greek, Roman, Jewish, and Christian—plays a vital role
in the series as Stanley paints a realistic and historically accurate picture
of the competition that the apostle Paul faced as he sought to spread the
message about Jesus in a pagan culture. Along the way, he helps
readers to see how odd Christianity appeared in a world where the worship of
many gods was woven into every facet of life and the idea of a Jewish Messiah
bringing salvation from sin and judgment was a foreign
concept. Through this carefully crafted and engaging story, readers
will gain a solid understanding of why some people accepted and the majority
rejected what to them was an odd new religious cult.
Countless other aspects of life in the Roman world are vividly
illustrated in this fascinating and well-researched series that is receiving
five-star reviews on Amazon from both scholars and ordinary
readers. The reviews, which include more information about the
contents of the books and their relevance for early Christianity, can be viewed
A Rooster for Asklepios: A Slave's Story,
Book 1 and at A
Bull For Pluto: A Slave's Story, Book 2.

Finding Hope When Skies Aren’t Blue
When Skies Aren’t Blue
A Physician’s Personal Journey
Dr. Andy Laurie
Dr. Andy Laurie had a great life. He was living the American dream, happily married, four kids and two great careers. One as a board certified emergency room radiologist, and the other, as one of the pastors at The Bridge Christian Church.
In When Skies Aren’t Blue, Dr. Andy Laurie shares his personal journey as a sudden and unexplainable illness brought dark clouds into his blue skies of life at the early age of thirty-nine. Following, he offers Ten Powerful Steps as prescriptions that present real hope amid those dark skies that tend to drift in without warning. With clear and an easy-to-understand Biblical teaching, coupled with prayers at the end of each step, he encourages readers to remain steadfast in hope, persevere, and hold onto their faith in a God - Who is near and real in times of trouble.
Further shedding light on evil and sickness in our world, the author speaks candidly to all that are battling with failing health. His book offers fundamentals that teach and reveal not only the characteristics of God and our Heavenly Father as a good Father, yet he also highlights Satan and the role he plays upon this fallen world. His book presents simple truths of the Bible by helping readers understand that God is not causing sickness and thus, helps readers gain a healthy perspective. Satan is the one who comes to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). Yet, there is hope to be found! Jesus Christ is our anchor of hope in this life and eternally.
Dr. Laurie presents 10 powerful steps to victory. Each step is designed to point the reader to a God that is real and present, offering comfort, inspiration and scriptural insight bringing the absolute love and magnificence of God Almighty into the forefront. Dr. Andy Laurie states with unequivocal belief from the facts that God is real, He’s listening to you, and He cares for you. These 10 steps are powerful for life because they speak truth and give real help and hope for those in desperate need.
This book comes highly recommended for those who are currently suffering with failing health (or other life storms), and are in need of hope and encouragement that is real and tangible. This is an amazing book borne out of the author’s own suffering that will surely bless others immensely! A CBM Christian Book Review ~ 10.0 out of 10.0 stars
