...to sermonshorts. I am Jason Gerdes, Christ follower, husband, father and pastor. This site is intended to be a place for me to get out my shorter sermons (thoughts) during the week in between my longer ones on the weekends. I hope they invite discussion, feedback, comments, inspiration, learning, action or whatever else you see fit.
This last weekend we started a new series at Revolution Church. I have been waiting to do this one for a while to really get at the heart of what plagues all of us and that is idolatry. All of us make something other than Jesus ultimate in our life and need him to blast [...]

The other day I made the Big Announcement #1 about adopting our wonderful daughter Natalie Grace. Well now is time for #2. When Lindsey and I came to Bay Area Fellowship 7 years ago it was with the intention of starting a church one day. Bay Area was completely supportive because it is their desire [...]
This week is a little bit different then normal weeks in my life. I have 2, that’s right 2, major life changes that happened this week. I am going to be sharing one in just a sec and the other I will share this weekend. But before I do that, I want [...]
