Can God make a stone too heavy for him to lift? The question challenges the idea that an all-powerful God is not logically possible. Several philosophers have addressed the issue of God lifting rocks. Let's take a look, diving deeper into the philosophical issues than you've probably ever gone before.

For anyone who cares about Christian apologetics, you'll want to know about this, because I think it could change how we talk about manuscripts of the New Testament. The research helps to show that we have enough useful data across the earliest manuscripts to be confident that the New Testament has been reliably handed down to us. Check it out!
