"My good friend, Joe Hallman (retired Professor of Theology from St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN) had sent me an e-mail on Good Friday of '08 about being "in the Tomb with Jesus" and I casually replied, "Don't sweat it - That Rock's Gonna Roll." It got me thinking that we know that because we read the Book, but the Apostles had no such written account as they went through it in "real time." That's the reason I chose Peter to tell the story - willing, but weak without the power of the Lord. I'm weak and pray only for that same power of the Lord to sustain and strengthen me.

For the devout and curious alike, this is a compelling story of transformation—a fascinating journey from the realm of creativity and imagination into the domain of science and technology" --from the article.

Pray for the world Jesus wants it to be!

The best Resurrection song since Wesley's "Christ the Lord is Risen Today" ... let's pray Mr. Grayson gets his due and hears "This Rock" on the big stage this Easter.

Thanks! The song may never make me a dime, but if it helps one person see the truth in some small way, it will have its reward for me. Happy Easter.
