New York Times bestseller
Pastor Steven Furtick draws on the biblical story of Elisha to give you the confidence to know that nothing is impossible with God, the clarity to see the next step He’s calling you to take, and the courage to do anything He tells you to do.
Most of us aren’t in danger of ruining our lives, but we are in danger of wasting them. We all have honest moments when we’re gripped by a desire to feel that what we’re doing matters more. That who we are matters more. And according to John 14:12, Jesus wants the very same thing for every one of us: “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.”
That single promise—“even greater things than these”—should be enough to shatter our acceptance of spiritual mediocrity. Unfortunately, most believers have only tried and given up on vague notions of greatness…then settled into a life that’s just good enough.
But God has a vision for your life that is Greater. God is ready to accomplish a greatness in your life that is entirely out of human reach—beyond anything you see in yourself on your best day, but exactly what God has seen in you all along.
In Greater, Pastor Steven Furtick draws on the biblical story of Elisha to empower you to:• Take a God-given dream from idea to reality
• Stretch your limited resources and abilities in ways you never thought possible
• Replace the images of yourself that keep you feeling stuck in the past
• Make a significant impact with your life starting today, rather than making endless plans for tomorrow that you never get around to
If you’re tired of being ordinary, it’s time to dream bigger. If you’re feeling overwhelmed about where to begin, it’s time to start smaller. It’s time to ignite God’s Greater vision for your life.

Such a good book
I absolutely loved this book!! Great and easy read! All of Steven Furtick’s books are great and are Biblically spot on!
Very motivational and spiritually inspiring.
Despite the critics of this book I personally found it quite inspiring and Biblically sound. I believe you will be inspired as well. I also learned a great deal about Elisha. That guy was a "rock star!"

This book was amazing. Steven Furtick is not just a wonderful pastor, but an author as well. He writes just like he is sitting in front of you, talking directly to you. I loved everything about it, and it helped me feel closer to God. Thanks Pastor Furtick!
I love this book
I love Greater. I've been a part of Elevation for over 6 years and I've heard hundreds of messages from pastor Steven over the years, and I love how he continually seeks God for fresh teaching. The idea of dreaming big and starting small seems like it should be obvious, but it just isn't. This book is so inspiring for me, and I think the teachings in it are great.
Five Stars
Amazing writer and motivator
I enjoyed it.
I really like this book. I read Steven Furtick's first book, Sun Stand Still and was so inspired that I had to get this one too. It follows right along in the same train of thought. Very encouraging book to inspire you to expect bigger things from God and what he can do in your life. Good stuff.
Inspiring
Brought me closer to God. Motivated me to be greater with God. Needed this right now in my life journey.
