Ukraine is located in Eastern Europe and is the second largest nation on the continent. Since 2014, Ukraine has faced conflict – and the world is watching as the nation faces a devastating invasion.
As believers, we must stand in the gap for our Ukrainian brothers and sisters during this moment of crisis. Right now we have a unique opportunity to place the Gospel message into the hands of children and youth in desperate need of hope. By working with local churches we have established relationships with, we are able to provide a holistic crisis response, addressing needs as they arise.

This Book of Hope shares Scripture along with content from our popular mobile app to share God’s Word using eight key Bible stories. Used as a stand-alone piece to reinforce what kids are learning in the app, this Book of Hope has already proven to be an effective ministry tool in many countries.
The Teen Edition of the Book of Hope is a resource for teens aged 13 – 18 years old who struggle with not feeling loved and have an overall feeling of hopelessness and lack of purpose. Through this book, our desire is for teens to develop an understanding of God’s love and acceptance, what it means to have a relationship with Him, and to know that He has a plan for their life that is good. We want teens to understand who God is in the sense of His mercy, forgiveness, power, unconditional love, and acceptance through Jesus Christ.
We partnered with leadership expert John C. Maxwell and his organization, EQUIP, to create Lead Today. This program shares leadership skills through biblical lessons, all pointing the young people to model their lives after Jesus Christ.
What if It’s True? begins with an intriguing social media ad. When a participant chooses to engage with the content, it leads to a seven-day introductory journey through Scripture. Throughout the engagement process, users have an opportunity to go deeper and ultimately connect with a local discipleship cohort or social media community manager who is equipped to answer questions and guide users on their personal journeys toward faith.
