Louie Giglio’s “How Great is Our God” surpasses 100,000 books sold in less than seven months

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (May 18, 2020) – Today, Thomas Nelson announced that How Great is Our God, by Louie Giglio, has surpassed more than 100,000 copies sold.

How Great Is Our God is a resource for faith and science to come together in a conversation. Written for elementary-age kids, it is packed with amazing scientific facts, scriptures, beautiful photography, and cool illustrations.

Exploring topics like space and time, the Earth and weather, the human body, animals, plants and more, parents will find that this can be a great compliment to home education science lessons or Bible-based curricula.

“Louie weaves science and faith together in a way that is both educational and fun,” said Laura Minchew, senior vice president, Children’s and Gift Group publisher for HarperCollins Christian Publishing. “With parents now taking on the role of home educators, this is the perfect book for families to share the wonders of the universe and appreciation for God’s wild and amazing creation.”

With more than one million social media followers on his personal accounts, Giglio has grown a platform of more than just college students—reaching pastors, parents and adults around the world. How Great is Our God follows the success of his first children’s book, Indescribable:100 Devotions for Kids About God and Science which has sold more than 340,000 copies.

How Great is Our God (Thomas Nelson/Passion Publishing, ISBN# 9781400215522, Nov. 5, 2019) is available for purchase wherever books are sold.
