The gospel is not for sale.

Dorean Press is a publishing ministry recovering an old conviction — “freely you have received; freely give.” We print thoughtful books on the church and the commercialization of Christianity, and we sell them at honest cost.

Each title is printed on demand through Lulu and priced just above the cost of printing — never to turn proclamation into profit.

Why we publish at cost

Three commitments shape everything that leaves our press.
  • Freely given
    We never put a paywall between a reader and the message of the gospel. Where we can, the digital edition is free to download.
  • Printed on demand
    Books are printed and shipped only when ordered, through Lulu’s global print network. No warehouses, no waste, no overstock.
  • Honest pricing
    You pay the cost of printing and shipping, plus a small margin that keeps the press running — and nothing more.

Read freely. Give freely.
