The driving force of today’s state-building transformations is characterized by the great attention of many Ukrainian scientists to the communicative activity of Ukrainian Orthodoxy because, thanks to this, a number of tasks related to the construction of relations between the Ukrainian state, the Church and civil society are solved. All this actualizes the need for a theoretical and methodological study of the impact of the value ideas of the Hero of Ukraine, the outstanding church hierarch of our time, the Most Holy Patriarch of Kyiv and All Rus-Ukraine Filaret (Denysenko). Many scientists hold this opinion, leaders of public opinion, politicians and journalists, in particular, Anatoliy Bogdanenko, candidate of sciences in public administration and Denys Martyshyn, doctor of sciences in public administration, doctor of theology, associate professor, who, recently, to the 95th anniversary of the Holy Patriarch Filaret published the book “Ukrainian Orthodoxy in the Philosophy of State Administration”.
On January 26, 2024, His Holiness Patriarch Filaret of Kyiv and All Rus-Ukraine met with scientists at his residence. They congratulated Patriarch Filaret on his 95th birthday, thanked him for his prayers and support, and presented books and flowers to His Holiness. During the meeting, Denys Martyshyn noted that Patriarch Filaret’s spiritual, moral, national ideas and patriotic aspirations are the driving force of state-building transformations, and the valuable system of social teachings of the Orthodox Church determines the future of Christendom.
At the end of the spiritual communication and greetings, Patriarch Filaret awarded Anatoliy Bogdanenko the Blessed Certificate for developing Ukrainian science and church book publishing.
