Pastor Joe Hufstetler: Ambassador for Israel, part 2

The most powerful testimonies come from the places of deepest pain. Pastor Joe Hufstetler shares insight on that from two vantage points: as a pastor who has seen God work in the lives of the people he pastors, and in the lives of Israelis who are still wrestling with the trauma of the October 7, 2023, Hamas invasion. In his recent sojourn in Israel as part of the Friends of Zion 2025 Pastor Summit, he not only learned what the Jewish people and the Jewish State of Israel are dealing with on multiple levels, he also very quickly encountered the same kind of virulent antisemitism that continues to plague them. Yet instead of driving him away, this challenge has inspired Joe to a greater resolve to support God’s Covenant People in every way he can. 

Pastor Joe is demonstrating his faith through his actions, just as the righteous have done since the days of Abraham. That’s what Barry Phillips and David Jones talk about in their midrash, “Inside-Out Faith”. It’s the kind of faith Mason Clover and Laura Metzing sing about in the music they share with us.
