On Stone & Hearts

Understanding the Bible’s Legal Language

Coming Fall 2026

Happy is he who keeps the law.

Proverbs 29:18

On Stone & Hearts reveals how our relationship with the Lord is grounded in heavenly justice. Far from being legalistic, this book sheds light on a topic that has long been misunderstood. God’s law, now hidden in our hearts, is not to be disregarded.

Jesus said, “If you love me, keep my commands.” This statement reflects the words written on stone in the second commandment: “For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.” The legal system of heaven is just as important to us now as it was before Jesus was born.

Coming from the author of Jealous, Exposing the Queen of Heaven, Kelly provides insight into the legal language found throughout the Bible and shows how it pertains to our task of obeying the commandments of the Lord. In the same fashion as Jealous, she includes her own anecdotes, taken from her time as a military paralegal, that bring what could be dry material to life.

This bookis an excellent resource to add to your reference collection. Included are two legal reference sections designed to help you easily look up legal words and verses. May the reading this book enhance your relationship with the Living God.
