An eclectic group of ordinary men and women stood on a mountainside and watched their once-dead-now-risen Savior ascend to His throne. Though they seemed timid and ill-equipped, their movement didn’t fade. In the early church in the Book of Acts, the good news multiplied into an unstoppable force that transformed an empire from within.
How did God turn weakness into boldness? The answer came like fire and wind at Pentecost, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Throughout this 21-week sermon series through Acts, we’ll be asking the big question: “How does the unstoppable Spirit of God advance the mission of Jesus through ordinary people like us?” As well as other common questions like: Is the Holy Spirit still active today? What does it look like to live on mission for God today? What are spiritual gifts? And what does a “Spirit-filled church” look like now?
As we walk through the book of Acts, we will provide individual and group study resources on this site and through the YouVersion Bible App.
Resources to help guide your LifeGroup discussions. The Read Plan PDFs are a great tool to use along with the Acts Daily Devotional Podcast, too!
All of our YouVersion Read Plans for the Acts: The Unstoppable Spirit series include the Acts Daily Devotional Podcast audio, making it a great 2-in-1 resource for your daily chair time throughout the series.

This summer, we’re asking this one big question: How does the unstoppable Spirit of God advance the mission of Jesus through ordinary people like us? Join us on the adventure as we explore the movement of God in the book of Acts and discover the key people and events in the birth of the Church.
Join us as we continue to explore the movement of God in the book of Acts. We’ve already witnessed the birth of the Church, and throughout Acts 8-12, we’ll discover that the Gospel of Jesus Christ breaks barriers to reach every man, woman, and child.
So far in Acts, the Church has been born, and the Gospel is breaking down barriers. Join us in the second half of the book of Acts as the mission expands beyond Jerusalem and Judea and into the whole world.
What if the story of the early church isn’t just history, but a blueprint for following Jesus today?
