DOWNLOAD EBOOKEnglish journalist Frank Morison had a tremendous drive to learn of Christ. The strangeness of the Resurrection story had captured his attention, and, influenced by skeptic thinkers at the turn of the century, he set out to prove that the story of Christ’s Resurrection was only a myth. His probings, however, led him to discover the validity of the biblical record in a moving, personal way. 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.—Print Ed. Reviews: “It is not only a study on the Resurrection account as the title seems to suggest, but it retells the whole passion of Jesus Christ. Because the author does not concern himself with textual criticism, he is able to impress on the reader a consistent picture of the events of Passion and Resurrection. For this reason the book will perform a helpful service to everyone who wants a reconstruction of those events.”—Augustana Book News “A well-arranged summary of events relating to the resurrection of Christ and the pros and cons in the debate over their acceptance with emphasis on the latter.”—Watchman Examiner “The story Mr. Morison has told of the betrayal and the trial of Christ is fascinating in its lucid, its almost incontrovertible, appeal to the reason. For me, he made those scenes live with a poignancy and vividness that I have found in no other account, not even in the various attempts that have been made to present the same facts in the guise of a novel.”—J. D. Beresford

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFive centuries ago, the elemental artform of seal-binding was introduced to a world once devastated by senseless conflict. Seal binders—those with the ability to bestow seals—used their powers to bring order to the continents of Armos and Omallia. These lands prospered under the watchful eyes of the seal binders, and with the help of seal wielders—those with the ability to harness the powers of seals—the laws of the Seal-Binding Society were guarded for the years to come. Things changed, however, due to a sudden shift in the monarchy within the last 100 years. By order of a new king, the seal-binding practice was banned, and subsequently, it was decreed that the seal binders were to be executed on sight. With the widespread extermination of the seal binders came a radical increase in poverty everywhere across Armos and Omallia. In this world’s current eye, there is but one seal binder left, living in the capital city of Hitomi and serving—unwillingly—under the new royal family known as Ra. Can the integrity of the Seal-Binding Society be restored? Or will it completely deteriorate back to the ways of chaos and suffering?
