A Pilgrim's Podvig


Someone suggested I write about why I became Orthodox in 750 words or less. Well, this is just about 18,000 words over that limit:

A Pilgrim's Podvig

I had made a few attempts at this in the past, but I always felt like those attempts only told part of the story, so this time I went big, and began David Copperfield style with "I am born", and went from there.

This article is peppered with hyperlinks, because unless someone followed a very similar path to mine, there would be too many references that would not be understood.
