The Top 50 Black Christian Bestsellers List (Non-fiction)
(Based upon Amazon.com rankings, BarnesandNoble.com rankings, and BlackCBC.com rankings.)
For the Week of October 5, 2008 through October 12, 2008.

How we calculate the Black Christian News/BCBC Bestsellers List: Very simply, we combine the rankings of Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and BlackCBC.com for each book. Once we get the combined number, we rank the books according to the lowest number.  We have found, down through the years, if a book is truly a bestselling book, it will be a bestselling book across the board, via online stores and in brick-and-mortar stores. 

As you know, making a major bestsellers list actually increases book sales. So, Congratulations!

SPECIAL NOTE: All of the books that we rank, which is a list of over 300 Christian books written by African-Americans, with the exception of one, are on Amazon.com. About 30 of the Christian books written by  African-Americans are not on, or are not ranked on BarnesandNoble.com, indicating that it is not selling through BarnesandNoble.com. In order to have a fair bestsellers list, we want to encourage all authors and publishers to make sure their books are sold through BarnesandNoble.com, as well as Amazon.com and BlackCBC.com.
 
If you feel that your book is not being ranked with the over 300 books that are ranked each week, please e-mail the title of your book, the author's name, and the ISBN number to blackcbc@blackchristianbookcompany.com.

The Blessed Trinity Trilogy
Vanessa Davis Griggs is an author and motivational speaker who adores the power of words both written and spoken. At the end of 1996, this former BellSouth employee left 18 years of service stepping out on faith and decided to pursue her purpose and passion--writing. Proving out Proverbs 18:16, A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men, she began her own company (Free To Soar) emphasizing the taking off of limits as she travels around the country inspiring others--young and old--to take flight and do the same.

The Weekly Word
"Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
--John 10:7-10
