I would simply like to say, "Thank you!" I am not Orthodox, but have had an ongoing interest in it for several years. There are a few reasons why I have felt that I could not become Orthodox. Although I have attended services at our local OCA church regularly in the past, and have had some lengthy conversations with the priest, I just haven't been able to get over the hump. I don't know, maybe one day I'll get there! My problem now is that I have acquired some Orthodox beliefs and practices that make it difficult for me to participate comfortably in other Protestant churches. I have thoroughly enjoyed your presentations, some of the best I have seen on RUclips. You are a gifted educator. Thank you for making this series available.

I am thankful to God (and the algorithm) that I found this channel. I watched all of your videos now. I am a catechumen of three weeks in the Ukrainian Orthodox Church near me in Florida, and I have been looking for information presented in an easy to digest, yet complete manner, and I think you did a great job at doing that. I feel like I have a better understanding of Orthodoxy and Christianity in general because of your lecture series, and I have to say, I was disappointed when I had watched them all. I wanted more. =)
Thanks for your content, I appreciate it immensely.
