Attacking oil refineries should be at the outer limit of legitimate targets for Ukraine's drones and missiles, IMO. When warehouses and logistics hubs are targeted, not only are civilians harmed, but Ukraine's reputation is damaged.

Remarkable applied biblical storytelling from @DrDotun yesterday @citychurchbris. Concluding our short series in the Book of Ruth with application to migration, the church, identify and the redemptive purpose of God in history. Christ-centred narrative theology at its best.
