In recent years, the Russian Orthodox Church has increasingly aligned itself with Russian nationalism. Is the Church’s focus on nationalism overshadowing its primary mission of spiritual salvation?

Each year, Russia loses people equivalent to the number of inhabitants of a large city. It is becoming clear that the nation must be saved. But will Russia’s leadership be able to change the current demographic course? And will the ban on “child free promotion” save the day?

“Happy New Year!” You probably said and heard that many times about two weeks ago. But did you know that not everybody celebrated the start of 2025 right on January 1?

Russian Christians have been praying for peace since the first moment of Putin’s ‘special military operation’. Is Donald Trump’s re-election as president of the United States an answer? Well, for sure, the hopes are rising.

To be or not to be, that was the question. But for me the question has been who is appropriate to date. Does it need to be a person from your own church denomination? Or one who shares the Christian faith?
