Group Publishing is now part of the David C Cook family.

Over the past 50 years Group has been led by Thom and Joani Schultz. Now they’re positioning Group for new growth and expansion through this fusion with David C Cook. Thom said, “Group will continue to serve our friends in ministry with great Jesus-centered resources. Group’s REAL ministry approach, innovative spirit, great staff, and excellent customer service will continue and grow.”

David C Cook is a leading provider of Christian content, curriculum for all ages, books, Bibles and other resources. Also, Christian music label Integrity Music is part of the David C Cook family.

Cook CEO Bill Reeves said, “Group Publishing’s VBS programs include memorable and relevant children’s music we envision partnering well with our global music division, Integrity Music. Combining the talents and capabilities of the Group Publishing and David C Cook teams will exponentially increase our ability to equip the church and engage young people in transformational discipleship.”

Thom and Joani Schultz will now focus on their global philanthropic work. “We enter this next season knowing Group’s relational, experiential, applicable and learner-based resources will live on with David C Cook, reaching even more people and helping them grow in their relationship with Jesus and each other,” Thom said.
