Thank you for all you do! AFR has enhanced and deepened my faith... and has furthered my understanding of Orthodoxy to a much greater level. I can actually defend my faith to my Protestant friends! Also AFR has helped me immensely in my marriage and parenting through the many resources and podcasts that are available. How truly blessed we are to have AFR so readily available. May God continue to bless and guide you! My only wish is for all listeners to generously support AFR!

I am 50 years old, have been in Baptist Churches since the age of two weeks old (according to my mother), have two degrees from Baptist seminaries, and have served on church staffs. As I began exploring the Orthodox Faith, Ancient Faith Radio (and Ancient Faith publications) became invaluable to me. I imagine it will always be invaluable to me. I’ve not made any public announcement yet, but I’m hopeful that my wife and I can begin the process of converting to the Orthodox Church later this year.

Thanks for all your hard work over the years with AFR. A true Godsend for an English-speaking convert in Wales where orthodox services/sermons, etc., are mostly not in English.

Thanks for making so many of your older podcasts available. During Lent I listened to a lot of Fr. Hopko's Lenten podcasts going back to 2008 and was blessed greatly by them. Y'all do a great job!

I want you folks to know how very much my husband and I value and appreciate AFR. You truly are a lifeline to those of us who are not blessed to have a church that offers services more than once or twice a month. We must rely on your podcasts and books to keep us fed between Liturgies.

Good afternoon. Every morning when I wake up, I listen to your radio. It gives me energy and a good mood for the whole day. Now, I cannot imagine my normal day without your radio. My whole family also listens to your radio. With thanks and best wishes, your regular listener. Good luck to you all!

I have been Roman Catholic all my life, and it has been a constant struggle to convince myself that amid all its contradictions, factions, and chaos that it was indeed the "true faith" as I was always told it was. I do not know how Orthodoxy was hidden from me for so long, but now that God has revealed it to me, it seems that everything I read, watch, and listen to regarding the Ancient Faith makes sense, and no contradictions. What my heart yearned for in the Roman Catholic faith that I only sometimes sensed there I consistently experience when I approach Orthodoxy. The shadows that the Roman Catholic faith left in my life have been illuminated, and even that faith now makes perfect sense. I am not yet Orthodox in nature, but am getting there—at least in my heart. It all makes sense now, and I love accessing this website, listening, reading and learning. I have bought several Ancient Faith books, including the Orthodox Study Bible, which is such a joy to read, and again, illuminating. We have even attempted to fast in the Orthodox fashion, and have found that it is not impossible. My heart is overjoyed, as I think my wife's is too, that we are now on the original and intended path to Jesus Christ. Thank you for providing that light for us.

My wife and I listen to you every day. We heard about your program from a link in an article about our local Orthodox Church in Berlin, MD. What a blessing you have provided us. Please keep up the great messages and God bless you all.

I just wanted to let you know how thankful I am for the Ancient Faith Radio app and your listing of podcasts on your website. I’ve been wanting to get back to church, but I wasn’t sure where to start my search. In searching for podcasts, I came across the Faith Encouraged Daily podcast and subscribed. This had me search for more Ancient Faith Radio podcasts and I also found the app. I’ve been listening daily to different podcasts for the past two weeks, and they have encouraged me to learn more about Orthodox Christianity of which I was not familiar. Thank you for the great work you do.

Congratulations on moving into the new premises and may God continue to bless your work and ministry.

Dear fellow true Christians, I want to thank you for the innumerable blessings of AFR. I have been a Christian for many years, moving from “non-denominational” to Reformed. About 10 months ago, something (or Someone) drew me to start researching the Orthodox Christian Faith. Since then, I have read and listened to AFR daily. I trust in the Trinity and wholeheartedly believe that the Orthodox Church is the true Catholic and Apostolic Church. I thank God for you.

Thank you so much for the videos, podcasts, the 24-hour radio and talk segments! I found AFR while learning about the faith. This ministry is something I cherish as someone who travels on the road a lot for work. I was able to download and listen to AFR on my long drives and on my journey to Orthodoxy. Keep up the good work! As a millennial, I really love Orthodox Life Hacks, Pop Culture Coffee Hour, Faith Encouraged, Aereopagus, and Orthodoxy Live—all great discussions! I’m still learning and living the faith, and this radio helps me on my life journey with Christ and the Church.

I am so very grateful for Ancient Faith Radio and I am not even an Orthodox Christian. I listen everyday at some point.

We discovered Orthodoxy last year and found Ancient Faith Radio prior to visiting our first parish. We listened to the music on the app to desensitize us to the sounds and style of what we would hear at church and gobbled up countless lectures and sermon podcasts (and still do). It was a huge help in our journey, and I don't know what our journey would look like without it. Your ministry is vital for we Protestant Americans who have to really investigate. We will soon be Orthodox, and I cannot wait for the day to come so we can be part of this vibrant heavenly community in Christ! Keep up this great evangelizing ministry.
