Today is a very special day. My husband’s new book GREATER comes out today and we are celebrating what we’re calling “GREATER Day”. All day on the Elevation Network you can celebrate with us with guests like Pastor Craig Groeschel, Israel Houghton, and Pastor Mark Driscoll. I hope that you will join us.
Also, from 9am-5pm our volunteers will be packing book bags to give away. We are partnering with churches and outreach organizations across America so that for every book you buy, one student in need will receive a new backpack filled with school supplies.
I am so excited that you can finally get your hands on a copy of this book! I know God will use it in your life as He has already used it in mine. And of course, I want to give a copy away to one of you. Only I want to give a special copy, signed by my husband!
Here’s how you can win it… buy a book this week and then leave a comment telling me where you bought your copy. Honor system please. You can purchase a copy at your local bookstore, and of course, online too at places like Amazon, Barnes and Noble Online and more. I will leave the comments open until Friday and then pick one random winner. Good luck!
And don’t forget to join us all day today at the Elevation Network.

Just ordered mine on amazon. I so appreciated Sun Stand Still but for some reason thought I would wait a little bit to order GREATER because I have a book or 2 I needed to read before I purchased another. But then I kept seeing posts today from P31 on FB of quotes from GREATER and felt like this may be part of an answer to my prayer for purpose in my everyday life. Thank you Holly and Pastor Steven for being God’s messengers!

Posted By: Holly Mitchell | September 4th, 2012 at 10:52 pm

Although I was one of the lucky ones to get an advance copy, I bought two more from Amazon. One for my sister back in Ohio, whose birthday is Sunday. (Every time she visits me here in Charlotte, the only requirement she has is to go to Elevation.) The other as a spare for whenever the need will arise to share it with someone else.
P.S. I watched GREATER Day on Elevation network all day yesterday. Loved every minute of it!

I bought The book from amazon hard cover and ebook your husband means a lot to Me Mrs Futick it’s going to cost me $1500 just acompdation but it will be so much worth it to meet him in person I see him as a mentor to me, i follow him on twitter and my favourite thing i have heard him preach is ‘ Be not entrusted by man but to every word Of The Word Of God. and i also learnt that perception Principal and applied it to my life to be ready at all times to hear Gods Word.I already have a copy on kindle and have purchase a hardback copy also cause I have sun stand still as well I loved it do much I bought a copy for my Pastor. I would be willing to supply the book that I got from amazon and the return envelope just for him to sign it for me. But if I did receive it I would give it to my church. But first I would give it to my pastor to read to get it approved i also baught a copy of sun stand still kindle and 2 books one for me one for my church to be put in our church library for others to read his Great passion and lessons he taught me to be content with what I have I am so thankful just for that alone.
at the moment and not get another credit card. As I’m only 22 and I love him for all he has taught me! I have a photo of his signature from a letter I recieved for giving to you guys that meant a lot to me. And for him to answer my Question on Woke Toke it just helped me grow so spiritually deeper I now use The annointing oil he makes before college and work everyday! He truly means the world to me but not as much as God ;) Thankyou for reading this long message I pray for you guys and Ryan Hollingsworth also Pastor Larry brey as I’m considering to get a three month student visa to be under that teaching, I want to be able to preach with that Passion of Christ like the old saying Set ur Heart on fire for people to watch you burn bright he helps me do that now im in full-time volunteer chirch ministry For Jesus Christ his article helped me alot on beating the ministry funk. I have a book of all Pastor steven has put on his blog he has actually given to me the idea to make my own website for people to hear Gods Word and amazing content from Pastor Steven and other Pastors. I was the boy that rang about someone creating that fake facebook page of him asking for money one of my spiritual gifts is desernment and i knew he would not do that on facebook thats why i rang someone was trying to rub his name in the dirt and I wouldnt allow that! Hes to valuable to us learning to become a Pastor and I know a lot of people try to ruin our names for its one of the devils tools. I also When starting ministry that was a humongous step as I have unsaved family I am the only Christian Every day you all mean the world to me and if God opens a door for me and allows me to come to that church. And Go to Liberty University I want to get a visa for 3months to come sit under his Preaching and hear you speak as well I know the bible says women shouldnt preach over men but I believe they can, teach us a lot. May God bless you Pastor and your children abundantly from Harley Rossi

Blessed day Mrs. Holly Furtick! :) I bought my greater book at amazon.com and I included the book Sun Stand Still on it.. :) It was my first time buying books in my life especially online. Hehe. At first I was afraid if it would come here in my place because Im on the other side of the earth, totally far from Elevation. :( I just discover your church to one of my friend and I start watching Pastor Steven Furtick. I was blessed that day first hearing his powerful message and I felt God used him to learn things for me to handle all the trials and pains that I am experiencing.. And up until now, I always watch him.. I started to love his humbleness while preaching, his devotion to let people know that we are loved by God.. I also listen to the Elevation Worship and follow you all in twitter so that I am updated on your status.. I decided to buy those books because God told me that it’s worth it. :) I am definitely excited to receive those books. I love the church and those people in the church.. Please help me tell Ps. Steven how great I am to know him at the very least. I found him and the church as family though Im far far away.. I am praying for the extension church here in Manila, Philippines because I would love to be part of it as a worker, minister and citizen of Elevation. I know in God’s perfect timing it will happen for God is God of impossible and nothing is impossible.. Thank you for your lives. I want to use this comment to share and to testify how blessed I am watching and supporting your church online.. I love you.. :) May the Lord continue to used you for His glory and magnificent..
-Lucy

Just bought mine off of Amazon for our kindle app. Already started reading..WOW! I also have been receiving the 4 days of prayer & devotional, which has blessed the socks off of my husband & myself.
This has been a ROUGH season for our family & so grateful that this book has come out at the perfect time in our lives to know that Greater is ahead!
Blessings upon your family & Elevation family!

I called my local Family Christian book store in central florida and to my surprise they had it the release date! We rushed to get a copy…Now I have to share with my hubby. He loves Pastor Steven and Elevation!! If I win a copy he will probably have a mini heart attack..lol
Posted By: Rose Ayala | September 7th, 2012 at 9:33 am
I just bought “Greater” on Amazon and am looking forward to reading it when I’m off work for ankle surgery!!! I now am really looking forward to recovery :) I really enjoyed “Sun Stand Still” and when Pastor Steven came to speak at Harvest, it was a life changing message and I am so thankful God has driven the Furtick’s and Elevation church to be such wonderful teachers of the gospel!!
Posted By: Christine Bukowski | September 7th, 2012 at 9:47 am
I read the first chapter online and bought my own copy last night on Amazon for my eReader. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the book.
I just got back from a mission trip to Kenya where we worked with ~50 children that had been ‘lost’ due to their phyiscal circumstances. During my 2 week visit part of my prayers each day included for God to open my eyes to see what he see’s, open my ears to hear what he hears and to open my heart to feel what he feels.
Re-reading chapter 1 again this morning made me realize that I need to continue this prayer. Not only as a I read this book, but on an ongoing basis.
Posted By: Christie | September 7th, 2012 at 10:19 am
I am so thankful that Greater was available for me to buy on my Nook and therfore allowing me to get is ASAP. Getting the copy of the signed would be a blessing not for me but for a friend of mine who I know for certain is capable of Greatness.

I actually preordered a copy for my husband on Amazon. He is a big fan of your husbands work. I wasn’t planning on reading the book myself. I wanted to read the sun stands still first. Which my husband is in the process of reading. But I couldn’t resist the urge and now have started this book. I am super excited!
