The indiscriminate targeting of civilians as the Russian military prosecutes its illegal war on Ukraine has caused an unprecedented humanitarian crisis: more than a quarter of Ukraine's forty million citizens are displaced.��

In this episode, using a lens of whole person care, we talk with people reaching out to others in wartime,��making connections, and countering the darkness with (in the words of W.H. Auden) "ironic points of light."
