LIFE UNSTOPPABLE: Unstoppable Creativity

Paul used great creativity in spreading the good news to people who were worshiping an unknown god. He stepped into their concept that worshiped cosmic mythology by teaching them of the creator of the universe and the Savior of the world. Our world today is searching for a higher power, a source of spirituality, and we have the opportunity to reveal to them the life and love of Jesus.
