Revolution Church

What Revolution Church does

Revolution Church is a non-profit Christian church founded in 2004 and headquartered in Canton, Georgia, operating across three campuses — a flagship Canton site (~2,600 weekly attendees), a Jasper campus (~526 weekly), and an online campus (~472 weekly) — for a combined weekly attendance of approximately 3,598. It is governed by Lead Pastor Jason Gerdes and Executive Pastor Chad Elliott, supported by an extended staff team and 1,586 volunteers. The organization recorded 279 salvations and 364 baptisms in 2025, signaling active congregational acquisition and discipleship outcomes.

The ministry is funded almost entirely through voluntary tithes and donations, with 2025 giving totaling $9,847,189.76 contributed by 1,961 giving households (including 529 first-time givers). It maintains a multi-channel digital presence through a website, mobile app, Church Center platform, YouTube channel, and podcast, in addition to operating 14 church plants domestically and internationally, including Kenya. A new physical campus is in active development, evidenced by open hiring for Campus Pastor and supporting roles.

The underlying operating model is community- and volunteer-driven rather than technology-driven: no proprietary software, AI/ML systems, or differentiated technical architecture is described. The core "product" is in-person and online worship, discipleship programming, and missionary/church-plant sponsorship, delivered through pastoral staff and a large volunteer pipeline.
