The recognition follows a surge in retail sales momentum for the title, which serves as a practical guide for pastors and worship teams. By qualifying for the Lighthouse program, the book will now feature in the HarperCollins Christian Publishing Edelweiss seasonal catalog and receive direct placement in the FaithGateway online bookstore. The publisher’s sales team will also present the work to regional bookstore buyers during the upcoming October sales conference.
Benjamin Brown’s People of His Presence Gains Retail Backing
Benjamin Brown’s book on worship leadership, People of His Presence, has earned a spot in the Lighthouse Recognition Program. This designation grants the title exclusive distribution and retail support from HarperCollins Christian Publishing, marking a significant milestone for the author’s work in the competitive Christian book market.

Pete Nikolai, Director of Publishing Services at HCCP, noted that the book distills Brown’s twenty-five years of experience in ministry into a resource aimed at deepening biblical praise. Brown, who holds an MA in Worship Studies from Liberty University, developed the text to assist congregations in fostering spirit-empowered worship. WestBow Press, the self-publishing imprint behind the release, evaluates high-performing titles like this one for potential acquisition by major houses such as Thomas Nelson and Zondervan.
