God's Very Good Idea

After many years of working as a team—and having already published three books through Logos, a local Christian publisher—we began to dream about continuing this journey more intentionally.

During our research for the previous project, we discovered two beautiful books that we believed would be a great fit for Greek-speaking communities: God’s Very Good Idea and The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross.

God’s Very Good Idea is a joyful book that explores how every person in the church is different—yet we are all equally sinners and equally loved by God, our amazing Father. As Greece becomes increasingly diverse and multicultural (a significant shift from just one generation ago), we felt it was essential to introduce a book that celebrates God’s love and unity within the church.

The translations were completed, and we began exploring ways to move forward with publishing. We considered using some of the earnings from our previous books to fund these new ones. But when COVID-19 struck in 2020, everything came to a halt. During that time, we had several meetings with Logos. Seeing our passion for children’s Christian literature, they encouraged us to create our own ministry—one that would give us the freedom to flourish and publish new, exciting books independently. After much prayer and many (many!) online meetings during quarantine, we decided to establish Priscilla Greece, an official nonprofit ministry. Under its umbrella, we created Sporos Books, our very own publishing imprint.

Transitioning from a volunteer translation team to a fully registered publishing house brought new challenges—and plenty of Greek bureaucracy! But God was present every step of the way, and we received tremendous support from The Good Book Company, with whom we planned our next co-publications.

And so, in 2021, Sporos Books was officially launched—and we were able to publish three more books, this time under our very own imprint.
