A New York Times bestseller, Keep It Shut delivers timeless wisdom on the power of words and intentional communication. Blending biblical insights and strategies, Ehman's book explores core topics such as motives, emotions, and listening, while also addressing the complexities of digital communication.
"Karen Ehman's ability to connect with other women on a deep, personal level is profound,"said Webster Younce, vice president and publisher of Zondervan Books.

This book also has a six-session study guide and video study for small groups.
In 2017, Zondervan published a companion devotional-Zip It: The Keep It Shut 40-Day Challenge. Over the years, Zondervan has published nine of Ehman's nearly twenty books, including Let. It. Go.(2012), Keep Showing Up(2019), and When Making Others Happy Is Making You Miserable (2021).
