Morison, Frank – Who Moved the Stone?
Who Moved the Stone? is considered by many to be a classic apologetic on the subject of the Resurrection. Morison includes a vivid and poignant account of Christ’s betrayal, trial, and death as a backdrop to his retelling of the climactic Resurrection itself.
The author originally set out to write a historical paper debunking the story of Jesus, which he planned on calling Jesus – the Last Phase.
However, the agnostic author, Albert Henry Ross (Frank Morison is a pseudonym) discovered that it his original premise wasn’t true. Instead, he wrote the book that has since become a worldwide bestseller. The book was published in 1930 and has been repeatedly reprinted (in 1944, 1955, 1958, 1962, 1977, 1981, 1983, 1987, 1996 and 2006). Many people have become Christian after reading the book, and some have used the work as a reference for more work on the subject.
Who Moved The Stone is not a theological text and does not pretend to answer the question of who Jesus is and what his death and resurrection meant. Instead, Morison digs through the material to paint a very clear picture of what happened on that weekend over two thousand years ago. His research and methodology are impressive.

Solution I just won't Go to Church Meditations on why and with what motive we participate in church. Are you part of the Redeemed? If you are, then how do you identify with that group? Isn't it by being a part of a group of the redeemed? (a church) Does God require you to congregate? Hebrews 10:24-25 What if there are no good churches around me? Corporate worship is essential in your Christian life. Edifying and being edified.
