Good article from Christianity Today. After decades of communist rule, then struggles for freedom and a move back towards oppressive rule, the people of Ukraine have a chance for freedom - including freedom of Religion.
Our prayers should be that Russia's influence wains and that the free governments of the world, particularly our American President and Congress, have the moral courage to support the people of Ukraine.

Trivia Q: What Other Serial Killer of 100's Never Made the News?
Kirsten Power's excellent article in USA Today is spot on. Under what circumstances would the trial of a serial killer of hundreds of people NOT be on the front page of every single newspaper in America?
What if the serial killer's victims were all babies? Wouldn't you expect that every single news show would lead their broadcasts with the update of the trial?
Maybe you've forgotten that Kermit Gosnell is that serial killer. Maybe you didn't realize that the news media is ignoring the trial. But why would they do such a thing?
Maybe it is because Gosnell was an abortion doctor. Maybe they know that allowing the American people to see this level of evil might give a black eye to their "pet issue."
Call all local newspapers and media outlets and demand that they cover this.
We need to know what happened here. Gosnell needs to be held accountable not only in a court of law, but by the American people. That can't happen if we don't know about it.
Further, our local, state and federal legislative bodies need to be held accountable too. What have they done to prevent this from ever happening again?
