"We weren't built to produce our light, we were built to reflect His." Amen
@Arelby Yes! What a powerful statement indeed! ^SF Team
“ Creativity really is another term for God showing up.”🎤 drop!
Facts 🎉
I stopped painting as a teen…I yearned to paint again but was fearful….it came to me like breathing back then especially in my very tough times…fear of not being able now had stopped me picking up my brushes . I’m 60 and God told me to build a pottery studio, I had never used a wheel or kiln. I took some hand building lessons for a year. Then my husband built my studio (after praying for him for 40yrs he gave his life to Jesus ) I’m now creating I’m throwing on the wheel and using my kiln. I want what I do to speak of Fathers heart for us, His love His call..I love the idea that creativity is God sharing His heart, Love and Will. I’ve no idea where or how I’m journeying but He has given me this passion …I trust He Will fan it into flame . I just love Gods passion to bless us reach us and just sit gently with us. Works in progress 🎉I’m painting slowly and loving pottery.
I honestly had no clue who Jerry Lorenzo was until watching this interview. What an amazing introducing, this is so inspirational. Just pure beauty and love.
Saaaame
I absolutely love him! I’m very into fashion! With me starting my bracelet brand, all designers are a big inspiration to me!
Rachelle blanc I knew who he was but this just introduced me to another side of him🤲
I think jerry and pastor furtick conversations are life-changing and it's important for people to realize fashion, music, sports, etc can co-exist with faith.
Raven Fairley 👏🏾
wow.. "am l dressing to reflect the One who made me?"
Oh no! Quickly, run and by this fools overpriced clothing! You will look so gangster... SMH.
what comes across as most remarkable is the his commeplete humblesness , he seems so at peace
I have to be creative parenting my son. Creativity is in everything we do.
"Creativity is a term for God showing up."
"He's given me glimpses that I can't unsee". So good. I'm so grateful for conversations like this.
AMEN!
"A U2 world tour."
"The gangster-ness of how tough this walk is." 😂😂😂 I love how the conversation is deep but lighthearted while still being faithful
"...Everything that we do requires creativity... You gotta be creative in paying your bills to taking care of your kids..."
This was literally a word for me. I always thought creativity only lasts in my studio and bills requires another form of profession.
In that uncomfortable space is where you find what you're made of.💓👍💪
Spiritually, creatively, Careerly, emotionally, painfully so stuck. I really want to want His glory. Please pray He makes me unselfish. Please pray He surrounds me with people I can help serve. Please pray I know what to do. I can’t see the plan. I know His voice and silence looms around me. People are here but I can’t feel love. I need to again surrender to His will. I do surrender but I can’t seem to know ANY WHERE TO GO! I need His help and guidance. I’m a light fading in a bed through the weeks instead of helping in the capacity I know He calls me to, I need mentors. Shepherds that can call me to tasks every day. Please help. Please pray with me. The idle time hurts. I want to want Him again not a plan. I don’t know.
Praying for you! ^SF Team
Official Steven Furtick thank you so much ❤️
Kim! Wow! You are in the perfect place. Humility is like an empty vase excited to be filled with beautiful flowers! How precious you are. Read Proverbs and make it your bestie! I'll be continue to be praying for you lovely!
GOD! I cried a few times while listening to this interview! I’ve heard of Jerry Lorenzo, in a social club misfits song but I never looked him up. But seeing the title of this video I’m glad I tuned in! ❤️ thank P. Steven & Holly & all of elevation for selflessly sharing this video and allowing us to be blessed by the work at your church!
This is the first time I have had the privilege of discovering Jerry Lorenzo. What amazed me most about him is the fact of hearing him so humbly speak about how Our God is using him to change the intent on how we respresent Our God through clothing and how we view how Our God sees his creativity being used through us in so many different ways. This allowed me to see that what we believe our weaknesses to be, such as Jerrys inability to speak comfortably before people, Our God will strengthen those weaknesses to further his message. It might not always be verbally, it could just be in the gift of the creativity that Our God has placed within you, that will speak volumes about Our God. While Our God is equipping you behind the scenes and in the places you are most comfortable with, he will not only allow that to be a vision of his will in your life, but Our God will then also equipped you with the verbal ability, that you see as a weakness, to speak and to share how he is using you to further his will. Thank you for the blessing that allowed me to see all these things through this one conversation.
13:25 This made me tear up! Jerry's sharing of his Mom's creativity in their home amidst financial limitations made me want to hug his Mama! I empathize with her, and it makes my heart swell how he talks about her.
I can't afford fashion right now but when I can I want to buy from people who fear God like Jerry Lorenzo
Me too! I want to reach a point where 90% of the brands i wear are faith based, made by people who fear God and are black owned. My instagram is going to be tailored to specifically highlight such brands and re-present God through highlighting his childrens work.
Christine Gweredza What's your instagram?
Charvany Studios coming soon
Our Father who does ART in heaven 🤩
This video really inspired me to be God centered in what im doing...its so easy to think about how you will use the things you planned for in the future to glorify God but we can really glorify God now. Thanks for this
Even at 26 I had my fair share of failures...I believe God knows what he is doing...putting your faith in man will let you down every time
I love this video for so many reasons. As Christians we are the standard in every arena.
this is the most amazing thing on the internet right now.
Inspires me as I continue to make short films and stories.
@Whole Lotta Choppa1 thank you :). Just produced my first feature film this year now and have acted in two others. Also wrote a new feature film that I’m putting together to make next year!
This has been one of my favorite conversations about faith in the market place and excellence while serving God.
This conversation was right on time!! I’m in the process of illustrating my first children’s book and everyone thinks I wrote it and I’m like noooo God have me this book.. and he dropped it in my spirit when I was being obedient in honoring the sabbath!!! God bless you all
Yes... You both started something that was scary..
Here you are..
Pastor you are a blessing.
Keep doing the good work.
felt like i was there; i was clapping and bowed my head in prayer jus laying in my bed lol. powerful
Blessed beyond measure by watching it from thousand miles away(from india) "everything god has given the main purpose is to glorify him " thank you pastor Steven Furtick .
you have no idea how powerful this was for me in this exact moment. God absolutely put this message in front of me at the exact moment He intended - I am very thankful for both of you. I took a ton of notes and I'm confident God will make sure I hear and see what He needs me to through my quiet time with Him. thank you
Yes! God using the AI to answer questions I just tugged the sleeves of His robe about 😊❤️
This was a WHOLE sermon!!!! 😍🔥🔥🔥 So inspiring for me
Amazing conversation between two great people.Love frm Zimbabwe.
What a great perspective! God is so good! We play the "bulb" to God's light shine! We reflect His shine or we are forced to absorb the darkness! Thanks for sharing and God bless!!! Thank you God for the gifts you shower us with daily! In Jesus name, I pray, Amen!!!
In the middle of fasting and praying for God to prepare me to be a wife. The word “Ambition” 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Wow, Jerry's wisdom and humility is so amazing. I pray Christ continues being his strength to expand the kingdom!

Yep you have to birth out What God gives you... And the glimpses... that's the conviction. You have to give life to those things..God has gifted you with... It's a must and you have people attached to your must..I feel you sir
Ps Steven when are you coming to Malaysia.
I needed to hear this today this whole conversation was something that I needed to hear . Thank you thank you thank you
His mother raised him to be an amazing person.... He has learned through the struggle of life to relive and never allowed his struggle define who he is ..... Walk with purpose ..and head held high... Baby ..
This was amazing! A lot of golden nuggets. I'm inspired & renewed faith. Praise God!
11:03 creativity is just another term for God showing up
Thank you for This i love his interview with the youth elevation...I know This Will Be great
"If the intention is pure, put your faith in the intention & the why. The why of what you are doing will always bring you peace beyond the result of what you are doing. Be in touch with the intention of why you are doing it." - Jerry Lorenzo
In everything I do.. be concerned about the motive and intention of my heart. And I was created to be a reflection of Gods light. Biggest lessons. Love you Pastor 🧡
God uses everyone in his time and his ways . God is so amazing .
God blessed me creativity /gifts where I am also using to glorify his name with my story and brand which all came from him. Jesus is so cool!🏁✝️
I love how God uses people that others think are unqualified. Thank you for sharing your story and praying for creativity be released in others.
I totally feel him when he talks about those "glimpses". Great interview though! Can't wait to share my story the same way that he did. See you soon pastor Furtik!😊

We mistaken ourselves 🙌🏻🙏🏻

Rich and very informational, many points inspire me to bring the values you talked about into my life, excellent conversation and participation of each other’s experiences in being led by our precious Holy Spirit❣️🙏🏻🙌 Pray for longevity for both of you❣️
A great interview.
I can really relate to Jerry Lorenzo.this interview reminded me that God is preparing me for success.
I was waiting this video like a real crazy guy since the day jerry Lorenzo posted it on insta.thnxs for the video love you guys.
It makes sense for it to never make sense because it never made sense. I am at peace with this part of my testimony.
I wasn’t familiar with Jerry before this message (although my 11yr old son was) but what a beautiful spirit. Many powerful nuggets dropped. Great interview! Thank you Pastor!
I see now, thank you,
What is given is returned,
Thank you
It's the glimpses, so true for meee toooo!
Well i was waiting for this for so lonnnnnng 😫. Two gem of a ppl 🔥
I start each day with pastor furtick, maybe the first 2 hours of my days.
It helps us see the heart of God. It helps us to see God more rather than people. How it is important for us to examine ourselves, our motive and intention? This is really an awesome interview and inspiring to those that are willing to be open and available to God. Everything that we do is to glorify God. Thank you! Thank you! Blessings!
This whole video was an answered prayer. Thank you both! 💜🙏🏾

One of the nest interviews I've heard in a while! Thank you so much for this.

Moved some mountains... loved this! Thank you... ❤️🙏🏽
Wow , God bless you so much Pastor Steven and Sir Jerry Lorenzo , I have been edified and transformed by this word. this was timely for me ( 2021/05/05) my life will never be the same. 🕊🕊🕊🔥🔥🔥🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽
# changed by the word 🧬🧬🧬
This is so inspiring to me as a Jewelry Maker/creative heart! ❤🔥🙏🏾🙌🏾
Steven Furtick is a great interviewer 👏
Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s about time!!!!
This was so powerful. Loved every second
Yep appreciate the small things
Needed this. Blessed.
Lol there’s a lot of sarcasm from “furtick”. Jerry a lot of things he said was good and humble. I think many who are already “famous” by many fans LOL, want to take Glory away from God and wants us to be the special beings. Jerry wasn’t confused, HES the VESSEL- that’s a good place to be. When we start getting titles that’s when pride kicks in. You can know your worth and still be humble and KNOW who you are. I love when God gets the Glory!! We get EVERYTHING from God. Just period!! Amen bro.
