This is so true. I had a great conversation yesterday with two friends, one Catholic, one Anglican, (I'm Protestant but am convinced God is calling me to come home to the Catholic Church). Our Catholic friend invited us for dinner around 7pm at a sports bar.
We had a drink and ate and laughed and discussed philosophy, theology, family, life goals, aspirations, and by the time we knew it, it was almost 11pm!! Two of us had work the next day haha. It was worth it. True Christian friendship and ecumenism is nourishment for the soul.
Funny thing is we were joking with our Anglican friend that he is bound to "cross the Tiber" at some point in the future and warned him that he better not get his hands on St. John Henry Newman if he wants to stay Anglican. Turns out it was his feast day yesterday and we had no idea until today...
My husband and I have had a rule for the last 6 years that we aren’t allowed to use google to settle trivial arguments.
Book recommendation: Brother Lawrence: The practice of the presence of God. Highly recommended as well by Fr Mark Goring
I can confirm that book changed my life
And now I'm going to watch again the song St Bernadette wow I wish I could be humble like her and you guys should be too
Love tat film,The song of bernadette, best ever,
Step 1 for me, although small. I switched to a dumb watch. No more wrist notifications.
It's not just a problem with smart phones, the world is heading towards ever more homogeneity of supply. A few big players have seen off commercial rivals, leaving arbitrary power in the hands of people whose motives could be literally anything. Old capitalism was toxic but at least people understood making money was the only aim. Now vast wealth is conflated with fuzzy edged ethics and philosophy.
Truth. Standardization & monopolistic power. We must do everything possible to disengage and connect and trade with like-minded people. Otherwise, we will be complete slaves to the world system.
Star Trek Next Generation and the Pin Communicator. (Sorry nerd here) Initially I thought they were a cool upgrade. I began to realize that they (the characters) were responding to that thing at all hours and it made me realize that they really had no privacy. It was then that it started to dawn on me that not all technology is good.
I'm 20 years old and in college....
and I have a kid phone. Talk/text only. No problem with that.
I’m 16, and I don’t even have one yet. Could get one anytime but I decide not to.
Good. Don’t get a smartphone!
Amen! Good enough I pulled the car over to tell you how good. It was. This is New Mexico where you have to drive 80 miles between destinations. Nobody can really say listening to you and Father Pine or Father Hicks is a waste of time. It's 100 out today, no air conditioner in the car. Hard to pray when it's hot as he'll. Thank you for your ministry. Is my brain fried as I type this? Probably, but then maybe this is my base line.
Yes! Put down the little glass screen and have a real conversation.
6:51 You can make do not disturb exceptions
A phone “helps fill the time” with interesting idleness in the least and at its best and at its worst fills the confessional. This channel is helping me move towards dumbing down our phones. It’s a slow process....
I agree lets all toss our cells and go back to LAN. Im literally annoyed with them annoyed carrying one. I feel foggy ever since they came about. I literally break them not intentionally every six months and take my time days weeks months one time before getting it fixed. Also where I use to ask God questions or where to get information I now ask god and find my self googling it also. As soon as they are not work requirement my smart phone is gone.
As I watch this podcast on my phone🤷♂️
My Gen X self hates the fact that people cannot actually converse any more. People don’t save anything up. Everything is imparted in texts and social media posts. I’m an early adopter - had a computer when it was rare and internet when not much was on the internet. I have never taken a selfie, text just a couple of times a week and rarely post on social media. Everything has its place in our lives. Y’all need to go outside and get some air. Put the phone down - even the dumb one. Sure, call or text someone to ask them to come over for dinner or go for a walk, etc. Stop acting like a bunch of zombies, peel your eyeballs off the screen and act like a social creature. We were made to interact with each other, not a screen. And stop with the FOMO. You ain’t missing anything. If it’s important, God will put it in your way.
That outro has me in stitches!
I know! So good!
As I watched this on my smartphone........
I think I read somewhere that J.R.R Tolkien equated the palentier in the Lord of the rings with the television set.
If this is correct then were he alive today, he'd probably say that the smartphone would be more closer to it
Yet he wants us to watch his RUclips on our phones 🤣. Love ya
I would love to see an interview with Noelle Mering on her new book.
My wife bought me a flip phone (before smart phones) so they could locate me if I ended up in a ditch somewhere with my motorcycle. I never turned it on.
I m always surprised by free advice like this.
I appreciate your help
I master my cell phone, the cell phone does not control me. I have it on mute all the time, when I decide to check it then I check it. When I go to bed I turn it off and by doing that my cell phone last longer in years. I think I'm going on 3 years with the same cell phone. Repent and pray. God Bless you all.
wow! scary stuff !!!!!
The mafia only uses a simple burner cell phone.
Matt, what phones do you recommend for this?
1.) Map
2.) Download a delivery app from app store
3.) Make calls
Everything else on phone is distracting me from Jesus.
@Corey Lambrecht What is a Wisephone? Or was that a wisecrack.😉
@Corey Lambrecht Oh thanks, Corey! I will look for that. I feel that our iPhones are sinister.
@Corey Lambrecht Wow thanks again, Corey. I’ll follow up. Nice of you to share that.
I also wonder whether this effect unfortunately dissolves the only place where you can find this kind of engagement being philosophical discussion with ott intellectuals which makes people dislike this kind of conversation even more as it's associated with gross people.
define irony. using my smartphone as a hotspot to watch this video on ;-)
620 or so. my mom died a few years ago (she had health problems, i am the son that lives closest, i was the one "on call"). since then i have found that turning my phone off for a few hours is a good thing. read a book or something.
I can’t wait to show this video to someone when we disagree on phone addiction.
That ending
I struggle with this my whole life 🤭 I want to have real joy. #genZproblems
I'm way ahead of you. My phone is always silenced.
Wow it's so weak brother Lawrence right on it's amazing brothers and sisters how something hits us and all week long or two weeks yeah the presence of God awesome. To speak anymore it's like wow you guys know what I'm talking about it's happening
Strong brother Lawrence I said week that it the computer misinterpret what I said he's strong check out brother Lawrence Anna check out your heart and look in the eyes of your brothers and sisters and love them where they're at is what I'm learning I'm sorry I'm so far behind you guys all know this so indulge just listen and peace be with you
So many of us seem to forget the presence of God, so focused we are on specifically avoiding physical sins.
Yuh
Don't mean to virtue signal (much), but I don't use cell phones. My life, so far, hasn't suffered one iota.
Whose watching this on their phone?
This is a ridiculous over exaggerated video. It’s a phone, you decide how to use it not the other way around. Here is some common sense . Since smartphones aren’t going anywhere and are going to be much more advanced in the future. Just remind people of some common sense rules of thumb to help use the benefits of them better. Jeez this is like hearing two old ladies gripe about today’s music lol.
So do you think cell phones have brought us closer to God and our families or further away?
@@Veritas1234 I, like most people today, meet my spouce on a phone app. So I'd say closer to family. And as an athiest, my distance to God hasnt changed, but there are lots of apps that could be used to woorship if desired. It's all about proper use.
Yes that book the presence of God wow you have to read it a couple times maybe once a year and all the sudden in that and the devotional as St Louis munford the the original St Louis Mumford read it once and then next year we did it again and wow people who said they read the Bible to splink your eyes he should be studying the Bible and not like someone standing over you with a whip this when you can God he's so groovy oops you know how old I am peace be with you
Why is christianity always suspicious of technology?
Not really to do with that. Smart phone addiction is a real problem. And yes I'm using one right now lmao but personal experience is precisely why the issue is genuine
I'm speaking in the microphone so some of these words are getting wrong I had a couple of pints with Aquinas and a pizza with Bob Marley okay but God is awesome and you're talking about something just hit me like 2 weeks ago and has not stopped so my eyes are closed the pizza is gone and the pine is finished but God's will lives on
Yeah and I'm a tough guy and I wish I was tough enough to be hanging out with mother Teresa okay haha everyone have a laugh bye
Is it just me or does this guy look like he is fasting to death
Wow I have to admit I don't care what you guys think I wish I was tough as mother Teresa of Calcutta enough said
