A revolution in thought.
This podcast changed the way I both thought of and viewed the U.S. military AND the Orthodox Church. Father David Alexander has created a revolution in thought. I cannot reccomend this podcast enough. I wish there were a new episode every week!

Simple and powerful all at once
I highly recommend this incredibly powerful yet beautifully simple podcast to all who wish to hear of Christ in the life of deeply spiritual person. God bless and keep you Fr David and all our young men and women in the USMC and all armed services. Can't wait for more podcasts.

Fr. David's short messages powerfully demonstrate what it means to love sacrifically. May God surround Fr. David & his Marines with the power of His precious and Life Giving Cross.
