More people in Ukraine go to church weekly than in all of much-larger Russia. Kyiv’s Saint Sofia is one of the oldest churches in Christendom. It is, in fact, older than Moscow.

Russia, knowing Americans respect religion, tries to push the opposite narrative, even as it bombs and persecutes Ukraine’s Christians. | Joe Lindsley
