This is unbelievable I was literally just thinking about how my cell phone is taking up most of my day. I open RUclips and this is the first video on the feed. This is totally a prophetic message from our Lord. Glory to the father and the son and to the Holy Spirit now or never ends of Ages amen
I've also been more addicted to the phone and the world, my prayers are rushed and not genuine. This is a sign from the Lord. Thank you, O most holy God. 🙏🏻
Thank you Fr. Peter for this video, watching this video during my lunch time, I really appreciate all you do for us, I just became an Orthodox Christian recently and you Fr. Peter and everyone at OE team were/are such a big help, support, etc in my path to the True Faith, the True Church, the Body of Christ.. ❤🙏🙏
You need discipline and strength. Thats why us younger generations are strangely gifted. We’ve been born into this world of chaos and digital distractions and through it we are blessed with the temperance to battle these distractions
Yesterday it came to my attention that cellphones are being introduced into Orthodox monasteries, and being used by monks. One thing I despise so much about modern culture is the countless people I see daily glued to these devices. Monasticism is in my future, and one of the last things I want to see is a monk walking with his head bowed down, glued to a cell phone. Cellphones in Orthodox monasteries are an extension of the devil's tentacles into holy places. Cellphones have no place in a monastery. I can see one or two computers in an office, for the purpose of conducting business, like selling books and products, but no cellphones. I will not be in a monastery where cellphones are allowed. I despise these things with all my heart. They are ruining relationships and wreaking havoc on society. Monks need to be totally detached and separate. Please do not ever let your monks use cell phones. Thank you.
@@Job-o1x Wow! May God bless you and make your tribulations easier. I've never heard a chinese being orthodox or even christian. This is inspirational and fantastic! The Lord will always find a way for you! Do not loose hope! Truly he blesses and sanctifies you!
Was there an ascetic way to use the Tower of Babel? Maybe, but we should still try to avoid it as much as possible and prepare for its inevitable demise.
It has been rightly said by many that flip phones/dumb phones were the best. At most, the only entertainment in those phones was the Snake game, an arcade style space shooter(I forgot the name of it) and, depending on the model, music/songs.
I find myself using my free time to consume orthodox and faith/spirituality content on my phone. Which in one way teaches me about the christian life, but at the same time I don't apply what I learn and just keep consuming content.. Very ironic ☹️
switched to a flip phone about a year ago for a few months. i switched back to smart phone and realized i just cant do it. Switching back to flip phone soon and focusing more on God
The irony of watching this on a phone...
Lord have mercy!
I mean if you're going to use your phone at least consume Orthodox Christian content
😂😂

Did you type that from your phone?
True. I personally I'm trying to minimize my time on my cellphone......
Same dude. I feel forced to use the phone almost.
I am very sure that if all of us can switch to flip phones on Weds Friday and lent that we can make something good happen in the world
Discipline and obedience equals freedom.

I'm being called to monastic life, God willing if I do become a monk I will throw mine in the trash.
❤❤❤
how do you know youre being called?
Come to Holy Cross Monastery in Ontario Canada
Toss it now then in preparation
Praying for you brother
Abbot: Why do you have that device in your cell!!!??"
Monk: Well it's called a CELL phone."
Abbot: SMH
I have a similar episode dropping this Friday. The phones are a great temptation in our day. Thanks for speaking on this Father! ☦️
That's why they are called CELLphone! Great practical points. Thank you, Father 🙏
❤💪👨💻🙏✝ GOD BE WITH US AGAINST EVIL AND TEMPTATIONS ✝🙏⛪️📱🕊
The father is 💯💯💯💯 on point on this. I have noticed this myself and needs to get away from phones and tech and focus more on study and prayer.

Discernment first.
I would never join a monastery where cellphones are allowed.

I have to use smartphone, because orthodox prayer apps in smartphone and KJV bible app in it, too
But there’s physical prayer books
@jollygoodgordon5580 I live in communist China, I can't buy a paper bible and a prayer book

Cellphones should never be allowed in monasteries or churches. Monks don't need them at all.
That chant at the end of every video is so beautiful! Can someone help me find it? TIA
I agree. I would love to know the name of it too!

Lock Box. Put the timer on and your cell phone becomes inaccessible for up to a week.
Amen !
Where do you find these
mobile devices should not be in consecrated worship spaces during liturgical services. as a baseline for the proper use of these diversions.
true!
Brother Nathaniel says hi
