Discerning a Monastic Vocation w/ Nathaniel

We are bringing back Nathaniel onto the channel. In his last appearance we discussed the time he spent on Mt. Athos. Touching on a similar theme, today we will be discussing the process of discerning for oneself whether they have a monastic vocation. Both Nathaniel and I have gone through this process and we both have an enduring love for the monastic habit. Nathaniel has had close contact with the monks on Mt. Athos, and he has the unique ability of being able to put those experiences into words.If you are not yet sure what your calling in life is, we invite you consider the monastic path. Visit monasteries. Talk to monks. Monasticism really is the heart of the Christian church, and it would be a benefit to all to become familiar with it's ways. Even if you decide that monasticism is not the path for you, hopefully you develop an appreciation for what it means to live a life consecrated to God.Get in touch with Nathaniel: https://linktr.ee/bodilessvoiceNathaniel's YouTube channel: @puritasfidesveritas ______________________________________________________Young Penitent Links:Beard Oil: https://www.byzantinebeard.com/Telegram Announcements Channel: https://t.me/+jITpv7gWcE9hM2IxTelegram Chatroom: https://t.me/+jITpv7gWcE9hM2IxTwitter/X: https://x.com/youngpenitentDonate to Young Penitent via Paypal here: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/youngpenitentSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1MqPG5CgYnmMrQ5h8DUcSAApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/young-penitent/id1709812607🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
