I’m a 40-year-old Baptist and I’ve been absorbing lots of Orthodox content for a couple years now. This past Sunday I attended my first Greek Orthodox service and was deeply moved. Almost at a loss for words, I found the whole experience arrestingly beautiful.

I enjoy the genre of "let the orthodox priest talk uninterrupted for 45 minutes in front of the Iconostasis" that we are getting rolling, glad to see it's done by a real Orthodox organization, Antiochian Men. God bless you all

That thing about being physically exhausted but mentally at peace at the end of the day being a good thing is true.

Very true. This happened to me a few years ago. I tried to compensate with running (a lot) after work to get rid of all the excess energy, while being mentally exhausted. I went to therapy, which never helped at all. More men need to hear that we were created by God to be like this. Secularism truly is a cancer to society. <br><br>Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, that led me to Holy Orthodoxy!

Fathers who speak this seem to undergo unending spiritual warfare. I am so thankful for his courage. Christ is King. God bless and pray for us all. Thank you God for all things. Thank you God for Fr. Stephen De Young.
