 FAQs

  • Our books are not watered-down paraphrases or summaries. Clarity, not simplification, is our goal. We follow the structure and meaning of the original text line by line, ensuring the author’s true voice is as accessible and accurate as possible.

    When a passage needs context to make sense, we add a brief sidenote explaining an outdated reference or cultural detail.

  • Our first priority is faithfulness to the original. For each classic, we begin by identifying the most trusted public-domain English translations, studying them side-by-side, and noting where they agree or differ.

    From there, we craft a modern English translation, line by line, replacing outdated phrasing with clear, contemporary language while preserving the author’s intent.

    When translations disagree, we rely on the strongest scholarly consensus and reputable commentaries to guide our wording.

  • Both. Our translations are clear and accessible for everyday Christians, yet faithful and precise enough for students, pastors, and teachers.

    Many of our books include helpful sidenotes that introduce key concepts, historical context, and important terms, making them a great entry point into Christian history and theology.

  • We want the Modern Saints Series to reflect the breadth and beauty of Christianity across time and tradition. We look for books that have shaped believers for centuries—works that are historically influential, spiritually rich, and globally significant.
