It is probably the most recognizable image for people familiar with GoodSeed, even more than our logo. The cover for The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus has essentially been the same for over ten years, with the orange and red colours, and the three men talking.

We have updated the cover to make it a bit more modern, and to make it look more like our other book, By This Name (pictured below), which has proven to have a big visual impact.

The old saying is true, people do judge a book by it’s cover, and, when placed side by side, people gravitate towards By this Name over The Stranger. We are hoping that with the new cover, people will be more drawn to it and willing to read it, whether they are just walking by a display or in a bookstore, or if they are given a book. Here is the new cover:

Eventually, we will also be putting out a new cover for All that the Prophets have Spoken as well. But for now, you can expect to see this new cover as we sell out of our old stock.

Below is a short video I recently edited together from footage we took last year in Scotland. We were talking to a family about how they had used our childrens book, The Lamb and it was really interesting to get the two young girls perspective on the book.
