emerald gold a pastor who is cool is a pastor who actually preaches the gospel, not this prosperity gospel man. He is not a pastor. Sad that people listen to him and this church
I’m a 47 year old and I had so much bullying done to me when I was young that I had one of two plans. Either kill myself or kill everyone else until I was stopped. But through his grace and mercy I was brought through. God’s will for me and for everyone else is to do exactly what Steve is saying. If you take the time to be you and let god love you for you and follow him and his approval over all others because he made you to be something greater in him before the world took its toll on you. He will make you exactly what you REALLY want to be. Let God’s strength help you to be all you can be in HIS glory and you will find life in a way you never knew it could be. Lean in to him and he will give you strength. Hold him tightly and he will comfort you. If you really seek his approval first then no matter what your friends or others say about you or about others wont lead you as much to hide behind your fears. It’s not always easy, in fact most of the time it’s not but don’t worry god has you back and he’s always watching.
I have always tried to get my children to just be themselves. I know it is tough as we all go through the pressures of acceptance. But just remember that God made you not other people. so just be you.
Wow, “God’s will is more about who God is making you rather than what you are doing” ❤️ and that ties with “Knowing God comes from trusting God” because when we trust God and have faith with HIS plan regardless of what mess our eyes are seeing, we’ll start to understand his perfect plan for our life. I feel like many of us, including myself, characterize others based on their actions and what we see in the present to a point where we start to see God the same. Like a girl might break my heart and i would look at God bad bc of it, with so many questions ab why im in this season of heartbreak not knowing that God put me in this season for a reason. It’s all part of his will in my life. All I gotta do is TRUST❤️ Proverbs 3:5-6🤙🏼 God bless Steven Furtick

Man pastor Steven is just such a dope guy like sitting down and just talking to teenagers and youth like we need more of that. Dope as always man much love from Vegas
Cecilia Preciado I know right!!! I just wish I would have somewhere to pour out ...without worry of being seen in a different way , especially being a pastor's kid
Wow...I wish all of our youth could receive this type of transparent, loving convo with there spiritual leaders. Good stuff going on at Elevation! Now to find a way to get my 10yr old to watch!
Am 41 and this is one of my favourite videos to watch... I wish I knew this in my teens. Am Grateful however for hearing it. And yes, the person I would love to meet is Pastor Steven. Great job guys, y'all are amazing!
I just turned 22 in November but I can completely relate to those teens and agree with what Steven Furtick said. Thanks I'm taking a lot with me today by watching this video. It is so awesome!!!
I think it's that feeling of belonging that the world longs for. We find ourselves in God and actually feel that we belong. But the world often finds itself seeking for the fulfilling community to belong to
Pastor Steven Furtick is so cool, amazing, anointed and everything more. The way he was engaging with the youth was super cool. This was amazing, I loved and related to what was being talked about. Man I love elevation 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 I so wish to visit the church one day. Bless up to Pastor Steven and the whole elevation team🙌🏿🙌🏿😊
For me.. When I got thrown down the gauntlet. Aka: lost circle after circle of friends, became the avoided/gossiped about reject, got hit multiple times daily with rejection and passive aggressive rejection (for years). The thing that got me through was running to Jesus with the pain and 'soaking' (filling up on Jesus) daily. What I did (and still do daily), is put on my favorite worship tunes, get comfy, and then just focus on Jesus.. can be a verse, can be the lyrics to the song, can just be me relaxing and allowing the Holy Spirit to flow into different parts of me. And then wait. Until Gods real presence shows up. I really feel Him. Sometimes to take away the pain, but more and more, just to fill me to overflowing, and readjust my attitude. This gave me the inner fortitude (the mighty inner strength) I needed to follow Him in the daily hard, uncomfortable, awkward situations. And slowly, over time, those same awkward situations no longer felt awkward on the inside. I could say a ton more, but this has been the essence to my last decade of life changing growth and breakthrough. You're not gonna get it perfect. Everyday isn't always God showing up in some crazy new way.. But the process works and the results are miraculous. It's an overcomers world 😄 Much love. This generation is gonna be amazing in Jesus 😄
oh that is so true i'm 25 now and the battles haven't changed at all....they just changed form and shape just like Pastor Steve Furtick said. high school i was dealing with friends, friends of friends, enemies of friends and now these friends are co-workers, relatives and ohmygosh celebrities.
YES I loved this!! I’m 24 and I still get satisfaction from replying to someone straight away and being accepted and then if I don’t get a response within minutes I get cut about it... God grant me to peace to deal with this, to not be jealous of my friends and their lives and what seasons they may seem ahead of me in. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
In my youth days I used to avoid conversations as these with pastors/youth leaders now I find myself wanting to be in that room and just share. This was really enlightening, thank you @elevationYTH.
That is more important for me to have thatkind of conversations then preaching even.Preaching shows the gifts inside of person but thatkind of conversations showing real person/face and helping ppl to think and having to allow share theyr thoughts.We lack in church communityes thatkind of conversations.
Paster Steven you are doing what is necessary for these young people. And you are doing what I’m dreaming of doing. Not copying you because I’m my own brand but it would be so amazing to talk to you about this reaching out to the next generation. It’s my assignment to revive the youth ministry in my church. I hope God has in His plan for me a meeting with you. Stay blessed
I really loved this . Pastor Steven even answered some of the questions I had. But I really liked how he just heard them out and had a conversation with them. Not a lot of churches have this and maybe they don’t realize how important it is. Subscribed 🧡
Steven furtick: who you wanna meet?
Me: Steven Furtick
Lit 🥺😭😂
Right😂😂
Besides who would want to meet God or Jesus when you can meet an actual celebrity pastor that doesn't even preach the gospel? Right?
Right. And Taya Smith
@@francesco6107 why are you even here if you 🤦♀️
When a pastor is so cool he actually has conservation with the youths it is amazing. Thank you 🙏

@@PlungingRealtor FACTS BOSS
Samuel Jaboin he just came out and said God is an abstract thought. He said God is who we say he is. What heresy.
Luis Richardson he just came out and said God is an abstract thought. He said God is who we say he is. What heresy.
This one is above me! I need God for this battle.
Like honestly. Who is cooler than Pastor Steven Furtick. The love and appreciation I have for this man of God. 🙏 💓 😂.
Resego Mats. Man of God? 😂😂
I dunno... an actual man of God?
Pastor mike Todd.
But we shouldn’t compare 🤷🏿♀️
Resego Mats. Um Jesus.

WOW!! THE POWER GLORY AND GRACE OF GOD IS AMAZING AND PERFECT!! PRAISE YOUR NAME JESUS CHRIST!! THANK YOU LORD GOD!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️
If all pastors will sit and listen to us and talk to us like this, I believe lives of youths are radically going to change..
I have always tried to get my children to just be themselves. I know it is tough as we all go through the pressures of acceptance. But just remember that God made you not other people. so just be you.
This is so relevant - We think of God’s will as what, where, when but it’s more about who he is making you into.
AMEN!! PRAISE YOUR NAME JESUS CHRIST!! THANK YOU LORD GOD!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️

That was powerful! My Pastor is unbelievable. Truly an ambassador for Christ
Pastor Steven is simply the 🐐.
I love how accurate this is to people whatever age you are
If only I ever got the chance to sit down and have a conversation with Pastor Steven Furtick. These kids don’t know how lucky they are!
They were pretty pumped about it
Don’t worship the man. Worship god
Cecilia Preciado U can find someone with the same gift as Pst Steve wherever u are. My youth Pastor really moulded me with such radom talks
Actually, I believe they do know how blessed they are... 😘💞
Cecilia Preciado
I know right!!!
I just wish I would have somewhere to pour out ...without worry of being seen in a different way , especially being a pastor's kid
This was awesome Pastor Steven is awesome very special to see him take time out to be with the youth and just talk
yessssss. so true.
Living by design is knowing your patterns of distraction and your priorities
I'd listen to Him the whole day
I'm 25 and I needed this
Happy birthday
"It's not WHAT, but WHO" - very true.
Wow...I wish all of our youth could receive this type of transparent, loving convo with there spiritual leaders. Good stuff going on at Elevation! Now to find a way to get my 10yr old to watch!
How very personable is Pastor Steven. Teens are so blessed to have him!
🙇 "Stay true to your values " wow thank you pastor Steven Furtick .Thank you for enlightening me 💕
Me as a youth and youth leader it’s always a blessing when a pastor takes time out of his day to spend time with his youth and invests in our lives
The coolest pastor😍😍😍
Am 41 and this is one of my favourite videos to watch... I wish I knew this in my teens. Am Grateful however for hearing it. And yes, the person I would love to meet is Pastor Steven. Great job guys, y'all are amazing!
Stay true to you... It minimizes frustrations
I just turned 22 in November but I can completely relate to those teens and agree with what Steven Furtick said. Thanks I'm taking a lot with me today by watching this video. It is so awesome!!!
Outwardly rejected but silently admired 🔥🔥🔥
I think it's that feeling of belonging that the world longs for. We find ourselves in God and actually feel that we belong. But the world often finds itself seeking for the fulfilling community to belong to
Well said
God bless you more pastor Steven
Living by design is knowing your patterns of distraction and your priorities ohh Amen! God bless you Pastor You are just awesome
Omg I wish to have wholesome conversations with pastor like y'all ♥️🥺 Such healing wisdom , the whole vibe is so positive ♥️🥺

How I would like my 16-year-old daughter to be in that room involved in such beautiful conversations. thank you for the work you do with the young
not a youth but this conversation was heartwarming to listen to 🥰
I'm really glad that this video came across on my TH-cam.
