Have you heard the story of Noah and his animals? What about David and Goliath, or Jonah and the Whale? Did you know sometimes those lessons are based on traditions and not history?

Join Copper the basset hound in a new series of children’s books as he travels the world with his friend, Amanda. While she is busy digging on archaeological sites, Copper follows his nose and discovers long-lost artifacts that show us the world in which the Bible was written, and separates the myths from Scriptural truth.

Stones Still Speak

When we first encounter the Bible, we are taught its stories—Adam and Eve, Moses and the Red Sea, David and Goliath, Jonah and the whale, and more. When a story lacks the details we crave, we fill in the blanks–with what we’ve seen in movies, read in books, and been told by our Sunday school teachers. But there’s a better way to encounter the whole story of Scripture: uncovering and understanding the ancient world and the people who experienced biblical events.

In Stones Still Speak, Harvard-trained archaeologist and theologian Amanda Hope Haley scrapes back 2,000 years of misguided cultural interpretations to reveal God’s Word in its historical, archaeological, and literary contexts. Far from a dry academic exercise, this process explains how our misunderstandings developed and revitalizes the Scripture you thought you knew, with the greater purpose of encouraging a more intentional, rigorous study of the Bible in your daily life.
