Before the Stone Was Rolled Away

About this book

What if the story of Easter began long before the empty tomb?In Before the Stone Was Rolled Away, a young boy asks a simple question that leads him on a journey through the stained glass windows of his church-and into the hidden story God had been telling all along.From the garden of Eden to the mountain of Abraham, from the Passover lamb to the prophets and the temple, each window reveals a clue. Each story carries a promise. And together, they point to the One the world had been waiting for.With rich imagery, faithful Catholic theology, and a warm, reflective tone, this beautifully illustrated book helps children see how the Old Testament prepares the way for Christ and how the story of Easter was written long before the stone was rolled away.Perfect for families, classrooms, and parish life, this book invites readers of all ages to rediscover the wonder of salvation history-and to see Easter with new eyes.
