What does it really mean to live an Unshakable life? In this powerful message, Pastor Kevin walks us through the story of Joshua 10, where God’s people learned one of the most practical and personal principles of faith: PRAY ~ FIGHT ~ WIN.

When Joshua prayed, fought with courage, and trusted God, the impossible happ...
