I thought this may be of interest to some people who frequent this website or who are wanting to hear about what a journey into Orthodoxy might look like. I was interviewed at St. Tikhon’s Seminary and the interview was posted on Ancient Faith Radio. I talk about my journey into Orthodoxy, being enamored by the beauty of our ancient faith, my decision to pursue the priesthood, my time at St. Tikhon’s, and the unglamorous spiritual life. I say unglamorous because, quite often, spiritual growth is messy. It is facing the monsters inside our hearts that we’ve been ignoring or unaware of for years.
I hope this is edifying to everyone who listens.

This was edifying. Thank you. You’re encounter with the Mother of God was very similar to my conversion experience as well. Glory to God for all things.
Glory to God, indeed!
Dear Jeremiah,
Thank you for sharing with us your spiritual journey. May God shine His light through your service as a priest now and forever.
Thank you, Maria.
