Resource Publications Resource Publications publishes both academic and non-academic works in various genres including poetry, novels, sermon collections, and biographies.

Based in the land of great microbrews and towering Douglas firs, Wipf and Stock Publishers is a creative team, an adventurous bunch who arrive to work with mud still on our shoes from the weekend ride or hike. Without agenda, we are shamelessly unapologetic about what we like: relationships, good beer, fine books, and enough coffee to keep us moving. Committed to writing that honors the imaginatio

n, intellect, and heart, we have a simple yet provocative model: with a list as diverse as our Northwest landscape, we publish based on the merits of content rather than marketability. Our staff handles every step of publication in-house, from customer service to editing and typesetting, from printing and binding to shipping. From biblical studies to classic theology, poetry to history, our authors are experts, scholars, and artists. By combining innovative technology with academic excellence we are able to produce affordable books of enduring value. Our books never go out of print, and building lasting partnerships is always our focus.

Exciting life update from me…

Delighted to be able to share the news that I have just signed my contract with the publisher and that my first book—an original poetry collection covering themes of beauty, faith, ministry and loss—will be released some point next year (final edits being worked on right now)!

A huge thank you to the fantastic team at Wipf and Stock Publishers and Resource Publications for your support thus far and a big shoutout to my amazing wife Sarah White for lending your beautiful illustrations to the book.

Really looking forward to sharing the poems with you in due course and am hoping/praying that this book will help inject a little hope, wonder, comfort and honesty into our light and momentary troubles. Watch this space! 👀📖
