Conversation with Jeremy Cleveland

Northern Colorado is booming, but growth doesn’t automatically mean spiritual connection. We talk with Jeremy Cleveland, lead pastor of Zeal City Church, about what it looks like to plant a life-giving, gospel-centered church in the NoCo corridor near Fort Collins and Windsor, where hundreds of thousands have little or no relationship with Christ. Along the way, we laugh about the quirks of a fast-growing region, then quickly get honest about the real reason we plant churches: people need Jesus.

Jeremy shares the deeply personal story behind his leadership, including his family’s early ministry roots, his dad’s turnaround through the grace of the gospel, and how a devastating car accident shaped his path toward vocational ministry. We trace the practical steps too: training, early pastoral years in Houston, and the worship-night moment when Jeremy and Brittany sensed a clear call to church planting.
