My name is Reverend James Overcast, and I am grateful for the opportunity to walk alongside you on this journey of faith. For the past 12 years, I have served at Dunaway’s Chapel United Methodist Church. I hold firmly to the truth that our redeeming God loves all people—shown most clearly in the gift of His Son, our Savior Jesus Christ.
I am a lifelong Methodist, and when I think about sharing the Gospel, I often compare it to fishing. Every person is unique, just as every fish responds to different bait, different places in the river, and different seasons. People, too, hunger for the bread of life that Christ offers, each in their own way and in their own time.
Outside of ministry, I enjoy fishing, hiking, working in my yard, and spending time with my family. I am excited to continue serving with the Dunaway’s Chapel United Methodist Church family, and we look forward to discovering all that God has in store for us in this next chapter of faith.
