About Bastion Books

In 2011, Norman “Norm” Geisler recognized the growing importance of digital book publishing and decided to create Bastion Books, the publishing wing of his ministry, Geisler Enterprises LLC. Bastion Books works primarily to ensure Norm’s books remain available and affordable in English and in other languages.

He chose the name Bastion Books to highlight the goal of our publishing company to defend the Christian faith. A bastion is a “structure or place from which one can resist attack” or “an institution, place, or person strongly defending or upholding particular principles, attitudes, or activities.”

This reflects Norm’s personal motto: “I am put here for the defense of the gospel” (Phil. 1:16). He intended Bastion Books to be a stronghold of conservative evangelical Christian thought, focusing on the seven key areas that BASTION stands for:

• Biblical Studies
• Apologetics
• Systematic Theology
• Truth
• Inerrancy
• Orthodoxy
• Normative Ethics
