ECPA Christian Book Award

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The ECPA Christian Book Award (known as the Gold Medallion Book Award from 1978 through 2005) is an annual award given by the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association to honor works relating to Christianity in a variety of categories, including Bibles, Fiction, Children and Youth, Inspiration and Gift, Bible Reference and Study, and Christian Life. Winners are announced at a celebration held in conjunction with the International Christian Retail Show each summer. From among these recipients is also chosen a Christian Book of the Year, based on a combination of judging scores and sales.
