A Faith Under Siege dives into the harrowing reality facing Ukraine’s Christian communities under
Russian occupation. As Russia seeks to absorb Ukraine’s population to restore its former empire status, Evangelical and Protestant believers—viewed as apostates by the Kremlin-aligned Russian Orthodox Church—are singled out for persecution. Churches are destroyed or seized, pastors tortured or killed, and families torn apart through abductions, all in an effort to erase dissenting faiths. Yet even amid these horrors—extrajudicial killings, secret worship services, and tens of thousands of children taken to militarized Russian “summer camps”—a steadfast unity emerges. Christians across denominations stand shoulder to shoulder, aided by international allies who refuse to let their plight go unseen.
