@sinbach watching for this to pop up on my YouTube!
Hi @sinbach, can you post the link to the recorded LIVE interview? I don't see it on the Youtube channel. Thank you.
@Susan sorry, YT would NOT let me post. Now you can find the interview link in todays article on back to jerusalem.
@sinbach Thank you very much!
@sinbach Thanks for this interview, which I got via BTJ podcast but it's playing on youtube. Prayers for the people there.
One thing to keep in mind is that there's a substantial difference between East and West Ukraine, with the West more connected to Poland etc. and speaking Ukrainian, but the East, like Crimea, feeling more connected to Russia, and the people being more connected to Russia. They have been on some level trying to separate since the coup that removed the pro-Russian elected president. My hope and prayer is that the Russians will pacify Ukraine (which will inevitably involve armed conflict with the Ukrainian government and its Western supporters) and allow the East to vote on which way they want to go (which in great probability be independance and close alliance with Russia) and let the West go its way after settling terms.
@sinbach Aside from praying for the people of Ukraine, will be there a fund set up to help with refugees fleeing the area? If so, what is the best way contribute? Givesendgo was hacked recently, and I don't feel comfortable using that site. Can we contribute funds to BTJ to be directed for those affected?
