Do you really want more?

If there is one scripture passage that haunts me day and night, it’s this one. We always pray that God would bless us more and “enlarge our territory”. But what does that really look like? Gather around and listen.

Creating An Over the Top Experience

Creating an over the top experience for our guests isn’t just a talking point, it’s a driving force behind Sunday mornings. Listen to the Assimilation Department discuss principles and practices that have helped Elevation Church excel on Sunday mornings.

The Biggest Shift I’ve Had To Make

Steven Furtick — Mon, 12 May 2008 14:02:08 +0000

It’s interesting to watch people respond to transition. It’s never comfortable, but the people who do it best seem to be the ones who make it over the long haul.

The audio blog this week is about the greatest shifts we’ve had to make and how the transitions played out.

If you’re in the middle of one yourself, I think you’ll find this helpful.
If you’re not, you probably will be soon.

Sit back for the next 30 minutes and enjoy the ride.

Wake-up call with Pastor Perry Noble

Steven Furtick — Fri, 09 May 2008 13:57:04 +0000

Recently I called my good friend Pastor Perry Noble on the phone and just chatted with him for a few minutes about ministry and I thought, hey it would be fun to record this and let everybody listen in on our phone call.

It’s kind of voyeuristic. But that’s what makes it fun. This is a little different than a typical leadership interview because it’s really just two friends chatting about stuff. Hope you enjoy listening. Let’s us know what you think and we may let you bug phones on a more regular basis in the future.

Elevation’s Dumbest Mistakes, Round 2

Steven Furtick — Mon, 05 May 2008 16:17:31 +0000

Ever been working at your desk and your boss walks by? What do you tend to do? Sit up a little taller, focus a little more, try not to say anything stupid, right?

This week’s audio blog is what happens when Pastor Steven isn’t in the room. He typically leads us through the audio blog experience, but this week his instructions were to, “go ahead and record one without me.”

It doesn’t mean we’re any less respectful or that our focus changes, it just means some people feel comfortable saying things they may not normally say when your leader is sitting right next to you.

Enjoy this week’s post by the Creative Dept on the – dumbest – mistakes – we’re – embarrassed – to – admit – happened – but – we’ve – learned – and – we’re – moving – on.

Me and My Worship Leaders

Steven Furtick — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 13:26:21 +0000

Recently I sat with all of our worship leaders at Elevation and asked the question, “What are the keys to creating a worship ministry that is in line with the vision of the church and the senior pastor?”

Senior Pastors, you might want to grab your worship team and gather around. Worship Leaders, I think you’ll find this very insightful and challenging.

By the way, one of our worship leaders, Chris Brown, recently released a fantastic solo project called Starbore. You can get it on itunes, here.

Also, the guys are releasing an Elevation project this summer that is going to blow your mind. It’s really, really good.
