Livin' The Dream with Jostein Krogedal
This podcast is all about life, leadership, and church—real conversations that matter. We dive into the ups and downs of everyday life, what it means to lead with authenticity, and how faith shapes the way we live and love. Think of it as sitting down with friends over coffee, sharing stories, lessons, and a few laughs along the way.

In this episode, I have the great honor of speaking with Pastor Israel Pochtar from Beit Hallel Congregation in Ashdod, Israel.
Beit Hallel is an extraordinary church with multiple locations, deeply committed to feeding the hungry, helping the needy, and being a bold, evangelistic voice in the nation. Their faith is not just spoken—it is lived out through action, compassion, and courage.
In this conversation, we go deeper than usual. We talk honestly about the impact of the war in Gaza and Israel, how it has affected the congregation, the families, and daily life. You will hear what it truly means to live with faith, hope, and resilience in the middle of uncertainty and conflict.
This is a powerful, real, and moving episode about faith under pressure, love in action, and the strength of the local church in challenging times.
I believe it will inspire you.
