    Pastor Furtick has the uncanny ability to teach us, make us laugh, relate to us, and fill our hearts with God's spirit all in just one sermon. Loved his sermons!

    Literally listening to this as i'm putting away laundry, cleaning counters, and washing dishes. As a stay at home mom, it's so important for me to remember how blessed I am to wash these dishes that God provided food to touch to feed my family, and to hang up my husband's work clothes that God blessed us with to be able to let me stay at home. I don't have to put these clothes away. I don't have to wash these dishes. I get to. God is so amazing. I almost turned on worship music as I started to clean. Turned on this sermon instead. I really needed to hear this.

      Misty Wiser amen sister! God has just given my husband a job where I don’t have to work anymore and I didn’t know how to take it I was happy but confused I have to lean on god and trust him every minute every day. I am leaning to take the gifts god has given me and be thankful I get to be a stay at home wife!

    Remember to pray for your pastors y’all! May God cover their mind, body, spirit, & families with the entire armor of God!! They’re putting their life on the line (spiritually) to help many of us who are broken!

      Victoriaa Linh Thank you for this. It’s so important and sometimes it seems like there are more people just waiting for a pastor to fall than there are praying protection from a fall. He’s just a man (or she’s just a woman).
      My husband was a pastor for over 20 years, loved the church and gave more of himself than he had to give. I believe he got to that empty place and lost that spiritual battle, at least for a time. He left the church, he left me, and he’s living opposite of everything he ever taught, believed, lived. My prodigal pastor, whom I still love with everything I have but who now blames me for everything.
      He was a good man and a good pastor. If it could happen to him, it could happen to anyone. Pastors and others in Christian leadership need our prayers, not our nitpicky condemnation. Pastor Steven and Holly need our prayers. Whenever God is working in and through people, they become a target. (And He’s used them so much just in my life through videos.)
      He has taught me so much walking through this fire, but I wish these lessons would have been learned without the extreme pain for everyone involved. I pray for my husband daily, but I wish I’d prayed for him daily all those years we spent in full time ministry. I wish I prayed as fervently for his protection and interceded for him as frequently then as I do now.
      I share all that to hopefully encourage those reading even more to pray earnestly for your pastors, for Pastor Steven and Holly, for anyone in Christian leadership who has encouraged you and touched your life. This is a great reminder.

      Lori Watson Wow. That was deep. Thank you for being honest and courageous sharing your testimony. God is not finished with your husband! There is hope!! A pastor in the city I grew up in recently committed suicide due to mental health issues. :( My heart aches because he left three boys and his wife behind. But what the devil meant for evil God meant for good!! We must continue to pray for each other as a community of believers in Christ. Even so for non believers. Sending love and prayers your way. ❤️

      God does not contradict himself Amen. God just exposed him, he said he likes watching other movies than Christian movies that's not spiritual the spirit does not lie my brother nor does is mislead, and we cannot be a stumbling block when it comes to God it has to be real and serious not saying we cannot laugh or have enjoyment but there is a way to do it. That is why so many are mislead and still remain confused opening doors to many things that are not of God and feel it is from God. Those feelings and passions and desires are suppose to be gone that only shows where they are at in God but again we use wisdom pray for them Amen oh and alot of Christian movies are not that good on leading into truth, they still show killing bad guys and the ones who kill the bad guys are suppose to be the good holy guys sad but hey pray for them too. No fear in God but we pray for wisdom and understanding what God COMMANDS AND REQUIRES not what man says are Gods standards are But what God says His standards are Amen

    It's HIS-story. Sometimes I need to get out of the way. When I haven't I need end up fighting the wrong battles. And many times it's because I surrender to become slave again to battles I thought I had already won. Help me, Lord, to surrender to YOU, the author and finisher of my faith. In you, and there only will I find my way. In Jesus name, Amen.

    The ‘dishes metal march’ is 100% most accurate & relatable... & 2000% most funny 👍🏻 & when you say ‘Martha Martha’, I want to answer with ‘why you buggin’... I listen to one of your messages daily. Real is what gets people thinking...not a script. I hope you have staff who weed out the negatives on here b/c it would be a disservice to let that ever affect your ways. Jesus kept it real & so do you...

    The Lord’s Prayer
    Our Father who art in heaven,

    Thy kingdom come.
    Thy will be done
    on earth as it is in heaven.
    Give us this day our daily bread,
    and forgive us our trespasses,
    as we forgive those who trespass against us,
    and lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us from evil.
    For thine is the kingdom and the power, and the glory,
    forever and ever.
    amen.

    I am not only named Martha, but am a Martha. I have been striving to find a balance between my Mary servant heart (devotion to spending time with God) and my Martha workhorse servant heart (always busy at something). This truly showed me that I can be both at the same time, there is no difference, if my heart is right. My joy is found in him. I want his plan & path for me, not my played out version.... thank you Pastor Steven

    When this series came out I was on it and made sure I didn’t miss any sermon, it came at a point in my life where I really needed it. Now I’m going through some trials but revisiting this series reminds me of how far I’ve come and how faithful God has been. God is using pastor Steven and his church in an amazing way. May God continue to bless him and his family 🙏🏼

    I needed this message so badly. All I do is control and try to change my life and I’m just stressing myself out about situations that aren’t going how I want and it’s making my life miserable. But why should I bother controlling my life when there’s somebody who’s so much better at it who’s doing it for me?

      Exactly, exactly!! There’s this song that I listen to anytime I feel like giving up, called I’ll Give Thanks by Housefires. My favorite line goes “Gods not worried.. so why do I worry?” and it repeats over and over again. I recommend giving it a listen, it’s an amazing fight song/declaration. You are sooo pretty btw 🥺🤩

    🔥🙏🏾 this is so on point. I have been a victim of creating a movie in my mind of how things should unfold. Then I will seek God and pray for an answer and become disappointed in the results if it doesn’t unfold in a certain manner. But this is a great reminder that I am not the director of my life. And God will exceed my expectations in the end.
    Amen amen amen 🙏🏾

    I’m just so lost right now in life. I’m scared of love, life, everything. sometimes I don’t want to be here anymore. it’s a constant battle with myself and my mind everyday and I don’t know what to do and how to get my mind right . I don’t feel like anyone can help because I don’t know what the issue is myself. I just want it to stop. I pray to god everyday for his forgiveness, for his strength for his guidance but I can’t feel him or hear him i believe in him I just don’t know what I’m supposed to do. I’m trapped by my thoughts and I know they’re not my own. Sometimes I get really sad out of nowhere and can’t pin out where it’s coming from and why I feel the way that I do. Or sometimes I’ll feel like I’m not good enough for anything and that I’m not worthy enough for god and that he won’t accept me because of the thoughts and feelings I have I’m just lost and I need help. Fellow believers I ask that you Please pray for me

      Eventually you'll be able to trust in God and cast all your anxieties on him. Take your time, God is patient and merciful. What you're doing is very admirable and beautiful but focus first on healing yourself (you could listen to Joel Osteen or Billy graham too) and then you can focus on others if you still will so :D let God show you what God can do for you, then follow him and see what you can do through him :)

    I watched this yesterday with my grandmother at my mom's house. My mom and I argue often because she spends so much cleaning and house work before anything. I live next door and I serve a lot a church and she tells me all the time so stop spending so much time with God and more on my house. I hope she was listening.

    It was amazing to attend this in person. I watch/ listen to Pastor Steven ALL the time. This Sermon was powerful. My husband (who does not attend church with me back at home (Michigan) was selfless & went with me to Elevation to see/hear Pastor Furtick. He thought Pastor was pretty cool and did not fall asleep. Won’t God do it! Bikers like Pastor Furtick.

    "Its not to do with work and worship. Jesus wants you to get to a place where you can't tell the difference between the two."
    Working with a servants heart can be worship. I love that Pastor Steven made a point that it was not Martha's action but her attitude that Jesus had a problem with.

    Martha & Mary:
    Distract- pull apart
    Guilt - bad attitude
    Manipulation - holding responsibility , control the situation
    Obligation - things you have to do, pressure
    Interpretation - no margin, trying to control things,
    Do not judge, and you won’t be judge
    We have to get fill first before giving to others

    God's invitation. Life's interruption.
    If you want to be a judge of other people's life you'll end up feeling anxious coz' the same measure of judgement will be used for you .
    Don't do it because it's an obligation do it because it's a privilege.
    Be filled first before serving.
    Martha was not doing anything wrong. She was doing it with wrong attitude.

Your preaching and words keep me alive when I feel hopeless, the ideas and action I take on because of what I hear explained keeps me thriving in and out of disappointment, and when I turn on these sermons I feel my joy recovered to me.

The Holy Spirit works most tireless to bring me into Your understanding of Your Will in my Life. Guiding me and lifting me up when I stumble and fall. I thank you Lord, for bringing your servants to cross my path, be it past, present or future, be it through people I meet on the street or recorded videos, nothing will hold back what You intended to do in my life, to reach out to me in any way you desire to. Lord, I pray for your Patience and Love for my sins and failures to grasp what you whisper. Lord, be gentle in me for I am weak and You are my strength. Proverbs 3:5,6 will be my verses until I come home to be with You, dear Lord Jesus Christ. And so much more You desire for me to learn, Be merciful with your rebuke and teachings. You know my heart and mind. With Martha, Lord, change me into Mary. Amen. Hallelujah!

    I never really got this story/parable in the Bible. I thought about Martha the way Pastor Furtick mentioned. I liked her....I've known too many "Mary's" in my life (but not in a spiritual-sittjng at Jesus' feet way and intent of the parable) so it drove me nuts. The breakdown of the meaning to gain the understanding of what the truth of the matter was is incredible! Finally, I have insight of this in the Bible. I needed to understand and get into alignment with what God wants for and from me. "Mind blown"!
