Searching for Crossway at Kobo, they turn the search into esv(some version of the bible maybe?). It's always fun when Kobo does that. This on made sense, but often their replacement of the search criteria doesn't. Anyway, the search lists 18 books (changing it back to Crossway shows only 10). Only one book is published after march 2014, Solo ESV New Testament. It's listed as ADE epub. Is this sold as only kepub for you?

There's a couple of books published in February as well, also ADE epubs. A couple of the earlier seems to be kepub though.
Kobo's search function is horrendous. The copyright for the ESV translation is owned by Crossway but the book you linked to is published by Tyndale House. And for both of my Kobo accounts (local and US), there's an epub file available, so now I'm even more confused but, with Kobo, that's par for the course

This search link for Crossway books should work; the search results will only make sense if you use it with a Kobo account with the old checkout. The last book (on the second page) to show an epub format was published in Feb 2014. After this book, none of the others (from March 2014) show a no file format. I contacted the publisher about it and I was told they have no control over how Kobo chooses to distribute their books (and they invited me to use their storefront, where I was sure to get an epub file )
