Other Credits: This cover sacrifices legibility in all the right ways. It's a cover you want to look at, pulling you in which is always a win.

Practicing the Present
Designer: Erik M. Peterson
Other Credits: A deconstructed clock seemed an ideal way to present author John Koessler's thoughtful book on living with God in the present. The highly structured cover arrangement also expresses a tone of intentionality and thoughtfulness.

The 4 Habits of Joy-Filled Marriages
Designer: Spencer Fuller, Faceout Studio
Other Credits: This cover features a small die-cut (the ring on the finger) and a short-cut front in order to tease the reader to flip the cover open to the first page, which shows--in brief--the four titular habits. These were some new production features we as a house hadn't made use of before and they were the vision of an out-of-house design vendor. It was wonderful to see the whole team (including the finance department) green light them.
