Listener Comments

Greetings from Sweden. I am so happy to have found this radio station! I love listening to it, and I have listened to it for years. The Swedish church doesn't have this lovely musical tradition, and it´s a pity. I would like to experience an Orthodox service some day with this kind of lovely music. It is pure spiritual joy and praise!— Marie · Mar 2010

I want to thank with all my heart your station for broadcasting online the beautiful and holy music of the Orthodox Church. Finding your station by chance is such a blessing for me, because the prayers and the songs bring me peace and serenity in my mind and in my soul. I felt the need to express my gratitude for this blessing, and I want to kindly ask you to thank your team on my behalf for the joy, the relief, and the faith they bring me across the Ocean. I wish everyone who is associated with AFR for the glory of God every success for the future.— Nicholas from London, England · Mar 2010

Ancient Faith Radio provides spiritual sustenance with superb content; it's a treasury of good gifts and a stream of clear water. I live in Moscow, Russia, and it was a very heartening experience for me to hear the strong and clear message of Orthodox Christianity from English-speaking brethren in the U.S., the U.K., and Canada. Amazing homilies from Fr. Pat Reardon and Fr. Theodore Paraskevopoulos! Thank you very much, Fr. Matthew, for your in-depth reflections on the writing of the Church Fathers. May God bless your efforts!— Oleg from Moscow, Russia · Mar 2010

I am an 11-year-old boy who loves to listen to this radio station on my Dad's iPod at night.— Gabriel · Feb 2010

Circumstances meant that I would take up residency in North Carolina but miles from any local parishes. Thanks be to God I discovered that I can bring the beautiful sounds of Orthodoxy right into my home any time at all, and hear the voices of a few old dear friends too.— Jason · Feb 2010

I am a traveling salesman and when I arrive in my motel room I set up my laptop and am home. AFR is much better than what is offered on the TV. I praise god for your ministry.— Dave · Jan 2010

I am a practicing Catholic and I would just like to tell you that I really enjoy your station. This station is excellent for any Christian or even someone who is a non believer (who knows, it might just change their mind about faith). Thank you for putting on such an enriching and incredible online experience.— Chris · Jan 2010

Your ministry was a beautiful tool the Lord used for my conversion.— Todd · Nov 2009

I remain impressed by the diversity of your podcast presentations. AFR is important in my spiritual life and hoped for growth as an Orthodox Christian.— Wesley · Nov 2009

I discovered AFR a year ago, and since then, I constantly listen to your broadcasts and music. You are absolutely geniune in your approach towards Orthodoxy. AFR manages to reflect the light that rings out of the pure Orthodox Faith. I could not pass it without being touched by this light. Thank you!— Anca from Romania · Oct 2009

I am very thankful for Ancient Faith Radio. This station is one of the most helpful tools to learn about the Orthodox tradition at its best. Especially, I'd like to note Fr. Tom Hopko's programs which have always inspired me to inquire deeper into theology. His biblical stand often gives me the right perspective on many theological issues.— Sergey · Oct 2009

Since I found AFR, I have been inhaling it nearly 24/7. It's giving me a fresh perspective on my faith. Thanks so much. — Lynne · Oct 2009

I just had to write and say how much Ancient Faith Radio has meant to me. I don't know yet if my journey ends in Orthodoxy—at least in this life, but much of my heart is with you and I have truly grown because of the work you all do; my family has also grown from me simply parroting all that I hear. Our Bible studies with friends and family have been fueled by notes from such shows as Our Life in Christ and At the Intersection of East and West—we've had to underline previously unknown verses from time to time.— Tim · Oct 2009

You have been a blessing to me in ways that words cannot possibly explain. For this I'm indebted to you for life already, for in your podcasts you have unlocked the beauty of Orthodox Christianity that has been reflected for over two thousand years. As I listen to your commentaries, my soul is moved because I reflect on the true meaning of what it means to be a christian in the light of the apostles and compare my own state of unworthiness to that which I aspire to become.— from Australia · Sep 2009

It has meant the world to me. I have the computer on upstairs and AFR blaring, so as I’m doing household chores there is all this wonderful Orthodox music drifting downstairs and filling all my senses! What a wonderful environment to be in! Glory to God!
