Share Your Story (Square One World Media)

Square One World Media’s partner studio in Ukraine, The Bible Today, has been releasing a series of videos on the book of Psalms. The first two videos of this series have gained over 350,000 views to date on YouTube. There are also hundreds of comments from Ukrainian speakers saying how comforting and peaceful these readings of Psalms have been for them in the midst of very chaotic and uncertain times.  ​

One 23-year-old commented: “I came across your Instagram posting by accident. I had never encountered the Bible personally before and had never felt any need for faith.  

The war changed everything because when you suddenly lose your home and friends and are in such an uncertain place, you need some new support. I received support through these simple short messages… I can tell these are God’s words that you are speaking because I can feel it in my heart. Thank you for sharing these special words.”

And a mother said: “My son, who is serving in the military, told me that he came across the Psalms videos online and that he has started listening to them in the evenings. Not only that, the other soldiers began listening, too. For an entire hour, no one said a word as the video played. The next day, several of them came to my son and said, ‘Somehow, our hearts feel lighter. We experienced an unusual peace after hearing that.’”
​
Through online video, social media, and in-person outreach, the team at The Bible Today is spreading the hope of the Gospel to Ukrainians who are affected every day by the destruction and devastation of the Russian-Ukrainian war. We ask you to pray for their protection and strength in the midst of constant danger, as the instability of the power grid in Ukraine and ongoing attacks make their ministry harder than ever. In spite of great darkness and uncertainty, His light shines brightly and will not be overcome.
