I have, for a bit now, been looking to get more into christianity. I am baptised and my mother is evangelical or some form of protestant, though I was never really involved with christianity growing up apart from going to church on Christmas. I have looked through some other denominations of christianity and Orthodox is what seems to align most with me, though I am open for any suggestions you have.

What I have more trouble with in my start to Christianity, apart from picking a denomination, is what translations to choose. I already own the New Testament but I have heard that the Old Testament or the Brenton Septuagint Translation is a better choice. Which one would you recommend?

Thanks in advance, 'teens.

Glory to God! I wouldn't get bogged down on specifics, a KJV or NKJV Bible should be just fine, though you could also buy an Orthodox Study Bible off eBay. As soon as possible, try to attend a Divine Liturgy if you have an Orthodox Church near you. Orthodoxy is a living faith, there is only so far you can get via reading, the internet, etc.

God bless you, soyteen. I will pray for you.

Do this OP, its the same way i got introduced to the faith.

Once you start attending more services and getting more comfortable, send an email to the priest introducing yourself & what faith background you have. Your priest knows best, he will schedule an appointment so yall can talk about how the journey is gonna look.

Praying for you 'teen! God bless!
