Point of Hope Podcast

In Part Two of this Easter series, Steve and Pastor Stephen Gossage focus on the resurrection of Jesus Christ and why it stands at the center of the gospel. The resurrection was not just a powerful moment — it was the confirmation of everything Jesus said and did. Without it, the message falls apart. With it, everything changes. From the empty tomb forward, the apostles preached with boldness because they were not sharing a philoso...

In Part One of this Easter series, Steve and Pastor Stephen Gossage take a biblical look at how the meaning of Easter has been crowded by culture and tradition.

In Part Two of this series through the Book of Judges, Steve and Pastor Stephen Gossage examine where the cycle of compromise ultimately leads. As the book progresses, drift turns into confusion, and confusion becomes normal. Judges closes with a sobering description: everyone did what was right in their own eyes. The issue was not a lack of activity or even belief in God — it was the quiet removal of His authority from daily decis...

In Part One of this two-part series through the Book of Judges, Steve and Pastor Stephen Gossage examine how spiritual decline rarely begins with open rebellion.

The cycle began not with drama...

In the conclusion of the two-part series, Steve and Pastor Gossage address the questions that often follow conversations about Israel: If God is still faithful to Israel, where does that leave the Church? And how does all of this connect to the end times — without creating fear or confusion?

Israel is constantly in the headlines — but many Christians aren’t sure how to think about Israel biblically, without drifting into politics, speculation, or confusion.

In this first episode of a two-part series, Steve and Pastor Gossage lay a scriptural foundation for why Israel still matters in God’s plan. Rather than reacting to current events, the conversation goes back to the beginning — to God’s covenant promises made in Gene...
