Elevation Church Launches New College Amid Shift in Christian Higher Ed

Elevation Church, the multisite megachurch founded by Steven Furtick, announced the launch of Elevation College in November 2025 as a hybrid institution. This move reflects a broader shift in Christian higher education toward integrating faith with modern academic formats to reach new generations. The launch signals a strategic pivot by megachurches to directly address educational needs and theological formation outside traditional university structures.
