I still consider myself new to Orthodoxy, first looking into it about a year and a half ago, starting to take it more seriously now. Right now, after a move to a new state, seems to be the best time to do what I can to get my life right with my Creator. I've been listening to a lot of Jay Dyer and reading his articles, his theological insight is absolutely incredible. Huge resource of geo-politics, spycraft, and Hollywood stuff as well. Definitely check out his reading list when you get a chance. His influence has kept me interested and engaged in pursuing the Orthodox faith.

New to Orthodoxy or Christianity? Member of a non-canonical Christian sect? See:
Orthodox Catechesis playlist:

You can watch this playlist to get a general introduction but I highly recommend attending a Divine Liturgy and speaking to an Orthodox Priest in your area as soon as you are able.
The Orthodox Study Bible is all I have been reading from lately and it has proven to be the most accurate resource and reliable source of answers to most questions I have. Highly recommend picking it up if you are looking into Orthodoxy. Read the footnotes! The Orthodox Study Bible, Hardcover: Ancient Christianity Speaks to Today's World - by St. Athanasius Academy of Orthodox Theology
A few books on my 'to read' list:
On the Cosmic Mystery of Jesus Christ - by St. Maximus the Confessor
Disputations with Pyrrhus - by Saint Maximus the Confessor
Orthodox Dogmatic Theology: The Experience of God, Vol. 1: Revelation and Knowledge of the Triune God - by Dumitru Staniloae
On The Human Condition: St Basil the Great - by St Basil the Great
I will update this thread periodically with freely available Orthodox Christian info resources and discussion. If you are going through a similar kind of spiritual growth/interest please feel free to share your progress and thoughts
Try to keep it civil and on topic in here (see thread title), thanks.
