coincidence, i have been trying to learn it for about two weeks. using babbel and other resources. youtube has a lot of stuff. people say the grammar is hard, and that you shouldn't focus on it from the start. give it some time and acquire vocabulary. you need to immerse yourself. looks for media in russian, songs, movies, etc. reading the bible in russian os actually a good idea, i'm looking for one. even if i don't understand it from reading, it grows on you and you'll start comprehending based on context. also an orthodox christian. glory be to god, fren. pray for me.
