IVP Formatio stands in IVP's evangelical publishing tradition by integrating God’s Word with spiritual practice and by prompting readers to move from inward change to outward witness. These books are not merely about being informed, but about being transformed by Christ and conformed to his image. IVP Formatio is symbolized by the chambered nautilus, which reflects spiritual formation because of its continual spiral journey outward as it moves from its center. We believe that each of us is made with a deep desire to be in God’s presence. IVP Formatio books help us to fulfill our deepest desires and to become our true selves in light of God's grace.
