What’s Really Holding You Back From Responding to God

What keeps us from experiencing the full blessing found in faith? In the final part of our Surround series, Pastor Steven teaches us how to discover what’s really holding us back from responding to God’s call for our lives.

The Best Way to Not Miss Out On God

We all want to believe that we’re here on purpose. But how can we be sure we don’t miss out on what God wants us to be a part of? And how do we figure that out before it’s too late? In this clip from our sermon series Times and Seasons Pastor Steven shows us how to recognize and respond to God in every moment He’s given us.

The Uncomfortable Truth About Trusting God

What does our generosity say about how we trust God? Learn how our faith is stretched though giving and discover why scarcity is where God does His best work.

The Part We Must Play In Our Faith

Why does God even ask us to do anything? Why doesn’t He just do it Himself? In this clip from our sermon series Greater, Pastor Steven teaches us how to activate our faith, even in the most difficult circumstances.

Remembering The Evidence of God’s Faithfulness

What does it look like to combine God’s power and our obedience? In this video, we celebrate God’s faithfulness as we combine 2008 audio from Pastor Steven preaching a vision to impact our communities through outreach, with the visual evidence of God’s hand at work today.

The Two Ways You Can Feed Hungry People

Generosity, charity, outreach – it’s easy to look around and see the value in these things. But, what does that mean for us? What sort of impact can we even make when there are charity organizations around the world with far more resources? In this clip from our sermon series Kingdom Come, Pastor Steven explains that there are two ways to feed the hungry – and why as members of the global church, we’re called to participate in both.

Why Gratitude Is Crucial to Your Faith

What’s the point of gratitude? It’s not just a kind gesture or a way of being polite. For Christians, it’s far more than that. Gratitude is integral to our faith. In this clip from our Banner Years series, Pastor Steven reminds us how we can use our gratefulness as a powerful weapon in our fight against the enemy.

Wake Up The Wonder

Today is the release of the brand new Elevation Worship album, Wake Up The Wonder. You can find it in stores, on iTunes, and anywhere music is sold. Recorded live at Time Warner Cable Arena this past August, these songs are our prayer for the Church – a prayer for revival.

We invite you to join us on the Elevation Network, from 8:00AM – 1:00PM EST, to see live performances and hear the stories behind the songs.

We’re excited about what the Lord will do through this album. Please join us in prayer as we ask God to use these songs to open people’s hearts to the presence of Jesus.
