How does theological education continue its mission amid war? Evan Hunter, Executive VP at ScholarLeaders International, joins us to share his experiences walking alongside seminaries and churches in Ukraine throughout the ongoing conflict. Drawing from more than eight visits to Ukraine since the full-scale invasion, Evan reflects on what theological education looks like in a crisis, how seminaries have stepped up to serve as humanitarian hubs, and how the church in Ukraine is enduring deep losses while still growing in unexpected ways. From pastoral shortages to profound spiritual renewal, this episode explores what it means to teach, lead, and lament faithfully during wartime.
