Unstoppable Purpose Series

Contributed by Steve Greene on Sep 12, 2019

Very few things in life are unstoppable. The only truly unstoppable force in this world comes from God. The Spirit of God makes His Church, His people, and His purpose unstoppable.

We have been talking about what it means to be unstoppable. We began this series by thinking about things that are unstoppable. I actually did a Facebook poll a few weeks ago: Name the first three things you think of when you hear the word UNSTOPPABLE. #sermonprep I got lots of interesting ...read more
