Biography
Pastor Steven Furtick is the Lead Pastor of Elevation Church in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Pastor Steven grew up in Moncks Corner, South Carolina where at age 16 he realized God's plan for him to start a life-changing church in a metropolitan city.
This vision became a tangible reality when Elevation was founded on the faith of 8 families who risked everything - sold houses, quit jobs and moved to Charlotte believing that God would turn this city upside down for his glory through the local church. That risk has resulted in a remarkable return.
At the three-year mark, we've grown to more than 5,000 in weekly attendance among our three locations. Since our launch we've seen more than 6,200 people receive Christ. For the past three years, our church was named one of the “10 fastest growing churches in America” by Outreach Magazine.
The heart of Pastor Steven's message is revolutionary faith and how to approach every experience from a visionary perspective. As a leader under 30 years old, his unique passion for seeing God's purposes fulfilled is igniting a fire here in our city and beyond.
Pastor Steven attended North Greenville University, received a B.A. in communications and went on to complete a Master of Divinity from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.
He resides in the Charlotte area with his wife, Holly, and two sons Elijah and Graham
