If one were to name the writers who have honored the Eerdmans imprint, and who have been honored by the Eerdmans imprint, it would pretty much constitute the canon of serious religious thought over the past half century and more. -- Richard John Neuhaus I have heartfelt appreciation for Bill Eerdmans's long, devoted, and distinguished service to the publishing of theology. His personal interest in the writers he encourages, his keen eye for issues needing to be addressed, and his shrewd judgment of quality have been a huge gift, for which the entire Christian world should be grateful. -- Rowan Williams Eerdmans began as a publishing house located solidly in the parochial community of recent Dutch emigres in North America. Now I keep hearing from friends in many different quarters that they regard it as the most ecumenical of all publishers of religious books in the Christian tradition. My friends are right; Catholics, Orthodox, Lutherans, Reformed, Evangelicals -- all find their home at Eerdmans. -- Nicholas Wolterstorff In a culture plagued with cheap spirituality of every kind, Eerdmans has continued to publish at the very highest level. Once, after delivering a speech pleading for a more discerning selection of Christian books, I was asked by a perplexed church-bookstore owner what she should put on her shelves. I said, 'Anything from Eerdmans.' -- Fleming Rutledge
