[Theme: Twenty Fourteen] How to change featured content from posts to pages

I need help with the featured content on the front page. By default twenty fourteen theme features only posts on the front page.

Since the website I am creating (on a local server – hence unable to provide link) is more of a static site with pages as the primary source of information, I would like to be able to have the pages featured on the front page.

I would appreciate if anyone who has already done this can help me with the codes.

Thanks!
