Category: War in Ukraine

The War in Ukraine category examines the ongoing conflict through the lens of Orthodox Christianity, with particular attention to its spiritual, humanitarian, ecclesiastical, and geopolitical dimensions. These articles explore the impact of the war on Orthodox Christians, the persecution of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church, religious liberty, nationalism, international relations, peace, and the moral challenges of war in light of Holy Scripture and the teachings of the Church Fathers. Readers will find analysis of the relationship between faith and foreign policy, the role of governments and international institutions, the consequences of armed conflict for Christian communities, and the Orthodox call to truth, justice, repentance, and reconciliation. Whether addressing historical context, current events, or the enduring principles of Orthodox Christian ethics, this collection seeks to help readers understand the war in Ukraine from an Orthodox Christian perspective while considering its implications for the Church and the wider world.
