The Outreach Project
Josh Sparks and Zach Heck
Show overview
The Outreach Project has been publishing since 2023, and across the 2 years since has built a catalogue of 42 episodes. That works out to roughly 40 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 47 min and 1h 9m — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language Religion & Spirituality show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1 year ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2023, with 33 episodes published. Published by Josh Sparks and Zach Heck.
From the publisher
The Outreach Project is a mission put on by young adults Josh Sparks and Zach Heck to grow community and fellowship. New guests will be on every episode to grow the Christian community with the hope people will know others better and be a closer family.
