Ukraine: Straddling Fault Lines
Living on a fault line is full of unknowns. Whether the unknowns are environmental, social, religious, or economic, they are unsettling. But even though Ukraine has faced so many unknowns throughout its history, the Church is a powerful witness within Ukraine and beyond its borders. Explore the reality in Ukraine and the opportunities facing the Church there as they straddle a variety of fault lines. There are 46 million people in Ukraine—similar to the population of Texas and Florida combined or the country of Spain.
Personal Reflection
What fault lines are you straddling in your personal or professional life? Maybe there are broken relationships within your family. Your company might be going through a merger or acquisition. Maybe you’ve been through a hurricane, flood, or fire that has caused your life to be turned upside down.
Whatever the fault lines you are facing, they will allow you to feel empathy for the people of Ukraine. Imagine what they are facing as maps are being redrawn and war is changing families forever. Then be encouraged by the faithfulness of Ukrainian Christians throughout this upheaval. Pray for their impact to grow even in these uncertain times, and then ask God to help you represent Him well as you straddle your fault lines.
Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are our refuge and strength. May Ukrainian Christians cling to You during uncertain times. And may You be the One I look to for strength and stability in my life, too.
