Presented annually to the finest in Christian publishing since 1978, the Christian Book Awards honor titles in seven categories: Bibles, Bible Reference, Non-Fiction, Fiction, Children, Inspiration and New Author.
Five finalists are selected in each category following a stringent judging process by judging panels specially selected for each category.

The Christian Book of the Year is chosen among the finalists to represent Christian publishing’s highest quality and greatest impact for 2013.
