Bible Software Veteran Don Gillis Joins WORDsearch

Austin, TX—January 23, 2008 WORDsearch announced today that Don Gillis, a longtime key account executive at BibleSoft has joined the firm as V.P. of Business Development. Mr. Gillis will be responsible for custom products and relationships with ministries and institutions.

“Don is a most welcome addition to our WORDsearch team. He has demonstrated creative leadership through building alliances and crafting custom products for leading Bible software producers and ministries,” said Randy Beck, President of WORDsearch. “We have been blessed to bring together so much experience and skill at WORDsearch to serve those who preach and teach to change lives.”

“I’m impressed that WORDsearch offers superior solutions to equip people in ministry and disciple those in the pew,” said Gillis. “Their future plans and direction clearly mark WORDsearch as the ‘company to watch’ for technological innovation. I can use WORDsearch to meet a wide variety of study needs, from the new Christian, all the way to the Senior Pastor.”

Gillis’ career in Christian publishing and education spans over 20 years and a number of roles. He holds degrees in Biblical Studies and Christian Education from Evangel University and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He has served in sales, marketing, and management positions with David C. Cook, ICI University, Epiphany Software, and Biblesoft, plus Resources for Ministry, an educational publishing firm he founded and managed.

WORDsearch has been producing software and electronic books for the Christian market since 1987. Beginning in 1989, it operated as NavPress Software where it began its focus on serving the practical needs of everyday pastors and small group Bible teachers. It was the first electronic publisher to introduce the process of unlocking electronic books from CD-ROM in 1995. In July 2002, the company was renamed for its flagship program product, WORDsearch. In June 2003, WORDsearch merged with Epiphany, makers of Bible Explorer, and in April 2004, signed a long-term agreement to be the exclusive supplier of Bible software to LifeWay, the publishing ministry of the Southern Baptist Convention.

Products of the company include WORDsearch 7, a powerful professional tool for pastors; Bible Explorer 4, the easiest Bible Software available; LESSONmaker 8, a tool for small group Bible study leaders; InstaVerse, a tool that pops up Bible text when you point to a verse reference; and WORDsearchmedia.com, an online library of video clips for sermons and teaching.
