We all realized by now that we live in a polarizing and contrasting but judgmental society; it is easy for us to succumb to arguments that go around like hamster wheels. But one on one conversations can be the actual bridge that binds us together. Agreeing to disagree is equivalent to looking past the past and collaborating on common ground.

Steven Furtick is a pastor of Elevation Church which is based in Charlotte, NC. His Church broadcasts live every weekend on ElevationChurch.online. Steven was born and raised in a small South Carolina town known as Moncks Corner, located in the county of Berkeley. In 2010 its population was less than eight thousand people. Despite very humble beginnings, Furtick has become a Grammy award nominee for his songwriting — he writes for his church's worship team and music group Elevation Worship. He is also a New York Times best-selling author, with books such as Greater: Dream Bigger. Start Smaller. Ignite God's Vision for Your Life and, most recently, Seven-Mile Miracle. He also has known associations with pastors like T.D. Jakes and Joel Olsteen.
