About

We exist to build a like-hearted community of influencers who are high on Jesus, low on politics, and biased toward innovation. 

Our mission is to share the promise of Christ's New Creation. We leverage innovative methods of publishing and platforming to help authors and influencers with their message and to invite all people to discover a deeper faith and relationship with Jesus Christ.

Our current vision is to produce beautiful books through Invite Press that are national in scope, immediate in relevance, and life changing in influence. Additionally, we are developing other imprints and platforms, as well as other ministry initiatives.

Invite Resources works come from a Wesleyan/Arminian theological perspective and emphasize the Lordship of Jesus Christ, minimize partisan politics, and are biased toward innovation over institutionalism. 

We hope our resources help you to understand what it means to live like Jesus.

Invite Resources is non-profit and a ministry of St. Andrew Methodist Church of Plano, Texas. We began operations on the first day of COVID-19 shelter-in-place, March 16, 2020. For more about our values, click here. To meet our team, click here.

About Invite Press

Invite Press is the official imprint of Invite Resources and is a premier publisher for books to help you grow in your Christian faith. Invite Press publishes books that matter to the everyday life of following Jesus as well as those that apply to the work of full-time ministry. We are focused on resources that benefit God’s kingdom.

We like to ask ourselves, how do you do publishing in the kingdom of heaven? This question has led to what we believe are some innovative approaches to Christian publishing:

WE ARE COMMITTED TO DEVELOPING AUTHORS AS CONTENT PRODUCERS

We see authors as more than writers; they are thought leaders. Invite is committed to collaborating with authors to produce a variety of media to convey their message, including beautiful, well-written books; video content, and more, and to position them to excel in other mediums, including teaching and speaking venues. We hope to cultivate authors to speak to their strengths. Our strategic goal is to create an ecosystem of thought leadership in which Invite authors benefit from a virtuous cycle of mutual support and encouragement.

WE ARE COMMITTED TO HELPING AUTHORS TO PLATFORM

Invite publishes people, not products. This means we cultivate people, not just book proposals. We offer a "boutique" publishing experience with an emphasis on partnership and collaboration. We seek to help authors discover and develop their ministry brand through the publishing process, and we are committed to putting real resources into the successful marketing of individual books and the long-term personal brand of the author. Our promise to authors is to create a better publishing experience.
