Kingdom-purposed publishing, with no strings attached.

We offer our authors the support of a traditional publisher and the freedom of self publishing, in one simple, honest package.

We publish books that spread the Gospel and build the Kingdom of God.

We are a company of Jesus-followers, who are passionate about publishing books that build the Kingdom, and doing so in a way that honors God and blesses our authors.

We pursue authenticity, excellence, and truth in the books we publish and in the way we publish them.

We help you make an incredible book.
You keep the rights and royalties.

Writing and publishing are intimidating, and no author should have to do either alone. We guide you around the common publishing pitfalls, and take your book from a fledgling idea to a beautiful, finished product in 4 simple steps.

Our standards for product development, editing, and packaging are as high as traditional publishers, but our unique approach to publishing allows you to keep all of your rights and the lion’s share of the royalties.

When you work with Humble Books, we offer our professional services to produce a trade-quality, print- and e-book-ready product. As the author, you maintain all rights to your intellectual property and 100% of the royalties. If you elect to have us sell your book through our sales channels, we keep a nominal 20% of the profits.

So, that’s the long and short of it—an easy-to-understand publishing arrangement with no strings attached.

Our Publishing Philosophy

Humble Books is built on five fundamental principles…

1. Serving the Kingdom

We are committed to living out the Kingdom of Heaven in our lives every day, seeking to serve like Jesus. This commitment sets the course for how we run our company, the books we choose to publish, how we publish them, and how we interact with our authors.
2. Stewarding Relationships

People are more important than anything else. We strive to conduct our business in a way that honors individuals, respects their content, and earns their trust.
3. Honoring Author Rights

In traditional publishing, publishers hold the rights to every book they release, sometimes in perpetuity. But we believe in doing things differently. The words and ideas in your book belong to you. So why should we hold any claim to your content? Publish with us, and keep full control over your rights.
4. Protecting Author Royalties

Because you put in the hard work to write your book, and because your followers will be the primary market for it, we believe that you deserve a greater share of the royalties. With our unique publishing model, you keep up to 100% of the profit from every sale.
5. Offering Excellence

We believe in pursuing excellence. That’s why we strive to make every book we publish worthy of its author, worthy of its readers, and worthy of the Kingdom it represents.
