God. War. Person

A cycle of short videos, the topics of which arose within the framework of the round tables “God. War. Person”, which took place in the summer of 2022. Then, for three days, in the circle of clergy and laity from different cities and countries, we pondered the questions that began to arise due to the war: what is God like? What will faith be like now?

In this selection, six speakers (clergy members, scientists, and psychologists) share their knowledge and thoughts on the following topics:

How do we not lose faith during the war?
Why did God allow war?
Should Christians participate in war?
Is it normal to wish evil upon one’s enemy?
How is it possible to love the enemy during war?
Where was God when we lost those closest to us?
How do we live on after experiencing the war?
How do we rejoice when there is so much pain around us?
How do we find an internal resource during a military “marathon”?
How can we not feel guilty about experiencing joy in wartime?

We invite all interested to watch the videos.
