I recently watched a Priest, who was visiting Saint Innocent Orthodox Church, not to beat one self up, if you skip your prayer rule. It is better to skip the prayer rule, than to take it as a burden that one must do. Instead, say the Jesus prayer several times. Glory to Jesus Christ!

It is alot to take in, and alot to learn, but the fastest way is to simply attend an orthodox church. You can't become orthodox at home.

[@briankristensen349]

@@joshualandergren You are right, I can not be a Orthodox through the internet. It takes long time (whole life) to be cultivated. 350 km to the nearest OC, i have been there one time. For many of us Christian here it will take many years to be a part of OC. For me it is a slowly change.

[@joshualandergren]

@@briankristensen349 actually I struggle with the similar challenges, in my case I dont have a car and my bike is broken, and on top of that some people downtown wanna beat me, stab me, rob me, etc... so how about we both pray for each other, that the journey to the church (body of christ) may become easier.

[@cinemint]

I find comfort in repetition and prayer rolls, but I'm hesitant on translating "βατταλογέω" as "babbling". The root word is βαττας, which is related to two things - Battus, the king of Cyrene, who had a stutter, as well as Battus, who was famous in the ancient world for tedious and wordy poems. In both situations, the word itself represents an overabundance of speech, not disordered speech. I appreciate the Orthodox response to this, of course, in that the purpose is not to be heard due to the many words, but rather the effect they might have on the human heart. However, a faulty translation is fertile ground for rebuke.

[@accademiaoscura7870]

Prayer rules exist in the Roman Catholic and Anglican churches too. In fact they are the basis of daily life for monastics in the west just as much as among the orthodox

Hello! I am just new here. I got inspired to convert to Orthodoxy and thanks to your videos I have an idea of where to start. I was just trying to start praying (well I come from a Catholic background) but now I’m aware of the differences between the prayer ropes. I tried to look for videos of that but it’s still not clear for me how you pray the holy rope. Could you please guide me on that? Thanks a lot for sharing this 🤍

2 things I need help with 1. how do you confess to your parents that you're an Orthodox Christian. I'm almost 15, and I don't know how to tell my parents about my faith, for context my dad was a Catholic, but he stopped practicing because the clergy was corrupt, and my mom is a Buddhist. 2. I go to bed REALLY early and it's summertime now, so when I go to bed It's still sunny how do I do evening prayer If anyone can help please do, defiantly on the 1st one thank you for reading.

[@BibleIllustrated]

Hello, 1. This requires discussing with a priest. Bear in mind that your father has already changed faiths (from Catholic to secular); I don't know where your mother is from, but I have a hunch she wasn't born Buddhist, and you already live in a sort of multi-faith home, so I doubt they will make too much of a fuss; 2. Read them before going to sleep :)

[@cillianennis9921]

I may not be Christian but I think these kinds of things are important for any persons spiritual journey having the ablity to give devotion to Gods & saints. Thats why I always listen to the Orthodox church they have the best advice. The Protestants usually are too busy with preaching & other things that annoy me & the Catholics do more with a problematic clergy with a Preist they claim is almighty as if a man was equal to the gods. The pope should have no authority like the Patriachs who are equals not the direct office of God.

[@Tobby1923]

I've been an orthodox Christian for nearly 6 months now and I've never heard of this until now. I'm completely fine with repeating prayers for I say the Jesus Prayer using my prayer rope as many times a day as possible. My question was, where can I find a prayer role. Which prayer book would you recommend for me, or which prayer books have Morning and Evening prayer roles in them?

[@HomoEucharistica]

As stated in the video, ask your priest to give you some prayer rule... Practically all prayer books I have seen includes at least some morning and evening prayers, but the set is different depending on the book.

[@andrewsherwood7084]

[@henryc6271]

[@fev_rc]

we have morning and evening prayer rule.. and we also have david's 7 times prayers. so when i wake up at 6 am, which prayer should i read? daily david prayer or morning prayer rule??

[@HomoEucharistica]

For some reason I didn't succeed to find any information on "David's 7 times prayers", but I guess they correspond with the Prayers of the Hours (at 6 am, 9 am, 12 am, and 3 pm), at least on some level... With the First Hour Prayer (6 am), you could technically start with the Hour prayers and then proceed to morning prayers. But that should be discussed with a spiritual father first.

[@carsonbaird3904]

I have been watching a few of your videos for awhile now and I just cant understand salvation I cant wrap my head around it. do I have to be baptized, do I have to take the eucharist, do I have to be christmated? do I have to go to church every Sunday? do I have to consistently pray? what do I do? i honestly dont know

Hello Bojan, I am a Catholic (I tend more Byzantine than Roman but do what’s available to me and what’s natural to my prayer life) who is a big fan of your channel and have been for about 4 or so years now. I was wondering: what would you recommend to a Catholic who wants to pray the Jordanville prayer book as a standard prayer rule but wants to include prayers for the Pope in the way the Eastern Catholics do in their Office, and also would prefer to pray for his homeland (America) over the prayers for Russia? Would this be a poor practice to shoehorn into a private prayer rule of this sort and should I humbly follow the book? Would this be a reasonable thing in your eyes? I will of course ask my spiritual father as well but I figured I’d put a feeler out here Thank you in advance for keeping your reply ecumenical lol (please)

[@ElizavetaPolianitskaia]

hey Mattkosta, I'm not Bojan but I'll suggest - technically, in our prayer books the original sentence is "[we're praying] for our Godblessed land...", so it's kinda evident that it means Russia, but it's actually not specified concretely; so why wouldn't you really pray for the US as your homeland? :) (on the other hand, there is so lot of mess going on in Russia, that, if you'd ever feel that way, it'd be very nice if you pray for us.)

[@SOCKSofIRONFIST]

Forgive me for my absolute ignorance, I am a Non-denominational Christian who no longer considers himself to be Protestant and is searching for a church, but, when you say "Praying to the saints... praying to Mary", what do you mean by that? I thought Eastern Orthodox Christians venerated the saints and Mary, not prayed to them.

[@BibleIllustrated]

@@SOCKSofIRONFIST Prayer includes veneration. What makes it different from God directly is that Saints don't have a power by themselves (like God does), and our prayer to saints is essentially asking them to pray for us.

I didn't call anyone today. And yesterday. Hmmm...Should I not pray? ))) Morning or evening prayes from prayer books are almost always "skip". I don't like this texts, they don't fit me and my life at all. I cannot with a clear conscience and seriously say about myself that I have sinned by being an active sodomite or defiled by nocturnal emission (it is physiologically impossible). Or I broke the vows of a monk, did not listen to the confessor, or ate something outside the monastic dining room. It's stupid. I regularly pray during the day, reading Scripture and thinking about it, writing my prayer texts. Also, my choice is the rosary or the Jesus prayer, the reading of the Psalter and prayer canons. In the evening - meditation or menthal pray and thank God.

[@SeaSelka]

​@@778FraxK I don't understand where you got the idea that I don't consider myself a sinner? When did the reading of morning and evening prayers according to the prayer book become the measure of spiritual life? And even less do I understand how you are so sure that you can make judgments about other people? I can throw quotes too: "Who art thou that judge another man's servant?" Romans 14:4

[@SeaSelka]

@@778FraxK It is necessary to make efforts in that which is strictly obligatory or of undeniable benefit. Reading morning and evening prayers does not belong to this list (for me), and any of us IS FREE TO CHOOSE the means of self-improvement. This is NOT WRONG. Regularity in prayer is necessary, but this can be achieved with the help of any other prayers from any other source, after all, the lists in the prayer book appeared less than 200 years ago and somehow people managed before. You should be less categorical in your statements, especially when you yourself are not sure that you are right (as you say)
