Default loose flagstone

I have an AZ flagstone porch with two loose stones. Is it advisable to use
expoxy or some other adhesive to affix them or do I need to use mortar? (I'm
afraid that the mortar will raise the stone above the surface-level).

thank you,

doug

You can find an adhesive made for just that. I has worked a couple of
years so far for me.

There was a recent "Ask This Old House" episode where this type of problem was
addressed. Good old Roger Cook the landscaper, used adhesive.
