The 15 New Testament volumes of the People's Bible, the popular commentary series from Northwestern Publishing House, are now available for both Kindle and Nook. These are the first titles from NPH available in ebook format.

“We recognize this is the direction book publishing is heading and we feel it’s important to follow that direction,” says Mr. Mark Buske, marketing director for NPH. Buske says as a secondary goal, NPH is looking for another channel to get WELS publications to people from other church bodies.

Buske says NPH first started formulating the plan to make the People’s Bible available electronically about a year and a half ago. NPH will wait to see how quickly the New Testament volumes sell before deciding whether to make any of the 26 Old Testament volumes available in the same format.
