The Orthodox Church of Ukraine versus the Ukrainian Orthodox Church

Orthodox identity and ancient transnational ties come under heavy strain in war-torn Ukraine, and why won't those pesky bishops vote as they're told?

Hello! This week we’re moving beyond this fractious island to somewhere experiencing real conflict, not just fake churchy disagreement. But is the war in Ukraine about to prompt its government to make a lasting mistake by trying to tear down its largest Christian denomination? Also, is it actually true that converting fathers almost always leads to their families also joining the church, or is that a statistic that for headship-preaching churches is just too good to check? Plus, the usual podcasts and lots of links at the end. Enjoy!
