The article outlines the growing role of mass religious communications in Ukraine and their impact on modern socio-economic conditions in the country. A brief overview of the features and content of religious discourse in the media are made. Emphasis is placed on expanding the sphere of mass religious communications in Ukraine, not only on radio and television channels, but also on social networks, the Internet and even mobile applications. We have demonstrated empirically that the church discusses and shapes public opinion on important state and social issues.
