S3E2 | Church Planting in Wartime: Ukraine, Hungary with George and Sharon Markey

Church Planting Conversations with Asbury Theological Seminary

Carson Daniel hosts George and Sharon Markey of Calvary Chapel for powerful stories of the church living on mission in wartime. From simple gatherings, to evacuations, and telling stories of the tragedy of war, the Markeys speak to the role of church leaders in a crisis and how valuable authentic Christian community is no matter the season.

George and Sharon Markey and their six sons were planting a church in Kyiv, Ukraine when the war started. George had been living in Ukraine for nearly 30 years and has many contacts all across the country. Since the beginning of the war, he has been strategically connecting donors outside Ukraine with trustworthy people on the ground in Ukraine who are doing lifesaving work. Bridge UA exists to promote more of these kinds of partnerships. The Markeys evacuated to Budapest, Hungary, where they are doing all they can to serve Ukrainians in this hour of great need, with a focus on mobilizing and training the Church in Europe to provide material, emotional, and spiritual support to the millions of refugees around them.
