The Overland Story: How God Built a Church in the West

In this heartfelt final episode of Wisdom for the Wilderness with Pastors Zack and Josh, they sit down to tell the full story of Overland Church — from the very beginning to where it stands today.Pastor Zack shares how the Lord moved his heart toward church planting while serving at Buck Run Baptist Church in Kentucky, the difficult decision to leave the Bible Belt for Fort Collins, Colorado, and the bold step of faith their family took in 2017. Hear the stories of the small core team that moved west, the miraculous way God provided their building, the challenges of early preview services, growth through COVID, major leadership transitions, and the joy of sending out new church plants to Durango and North Fort Collins.This episode is packed with encouragement, laughter, and powerful reminders of God’s faithfulness — including how the name “Overland” was chosen and the church’s core values: Proclaim, Disciple, Serve, and Multiply.Whether you’ve been part of Overland’s story or you’re simply encouraged by real church-planting testimonies, this is a powerful reminder that Jesus builds His church.Thank you, Pastor Zack, for your obedience and leadership. The best is yet to come.*Wisdom for the Wilderness will take a break over the summer of 2026. Lord willing, the new version of WFW will return in the fall.
