Something very strange has been happening recently.

I went to an evening service last night. It was an evangelical service, mainly to see my friends, since I’m Pentecostal but have been leaning more toward Orthodoxy over the past few weeks. While I was there, I was still praying the Jesus Prayer, and I even had a rosary in my pocket just in case.


I’ve also stopped wearing my glasses because people have said I look better without them. So when I walked in, I greeted my friend on the hosting team, then went inside. I was kind of blind without my glasses, which made me a bit self-conscious. I thought a group of girls at the front might have been looking at me, but I could’ve just been overthinking it. I noticed some friends to my left, but I ignored them because another friend called me over to sit with him.

The main point is this. I’ve prayed to saints twice now when things have been really bad. The first time was on Pascha, when I had intense intrusive thoughts, almost like I couldn’t control what was going on in my head. It felt claustrophobic, like I wanted to shout things out just to release it.

The second time was more recent. I had the same intrusive thoughts, along with really strong anxiety while I was in church. I kept thinking, every time I come here, I hate it. I hate being around all these people. The music was loud, drums, everything, and I couldn’t think or pray properly. It just made everything worse.


But during those moments, I started asking saints to pray for me. I didn’t even know which saint, just any saint related to anxiety or struggle. I even started the prayer by saying, “Lord, I’m sorry if this is heresy, but I’m really struggling.” I mentioned that I don’t fully believe in certain doctrines like heaven in the traditional sense, more like soul sleep, and I know that’s controversial.

But here’s the strange part. Every time I prayed to a saint, my stress and anxiety just went away. Not gradually, but almost immediately.

Something really weird is happening, and honestly, it’s pushing me more and more toward Orthodoxy.

if God is pushing you to become Orthodox, i'd trust Him :Comfy:

i've probably had 100+ debates with protestants/catholics and im convinced that Orthodoxy is the truth. and not just because of logical arguments, but mainly because of how it feels

ive never felt God presence as much as i do in His church (and ive been to the biggest Cath/protestant churches, even visited the Vatican). and no amount of preaching from all the others denoms made me feel what i do in a small wooden Orthodox church in the middle of nowhere

praying for you bhai

idk what that process even looks like

and it’d be such a radical change in my friend group and in my theology

but I’m agreeing more with Otherdox brothers than I do with Proti theology

I hate the nt people in the church the fuckass live music and cermons especially if some fuckass foid is preaching

just go to any Orthodox church and talk to the pastor

also dont worry too much about your theology being different from what your friends believe. i have a lot of non-denom/protestant friends and we get along perfectly fine. also i've already converted 4 of them to Orthodoxy :feelshmm::feelshmm::feelshmm:

I’ve been to the Chruch many times

I’ve said this to prince b4 those people they way treated me

I could tell they genuinely had the fruits of sprit regardless everyone treated me there in that church like brother or sister

go to a evangelical service fml it’s a social club which I don’t fit in

I love the traditional way alot, so much so I instantly get nervoso and get the rejection reflex when I see a more modern way of preaching to christ like big open massese like concerts

But i still have to say every effort is still an effort to bring people closer to christ so I do not dislike them too much

Yeah bro i can't understand it, I actually get the point of a whole revolution to the corrupted and heretic church system, but if you are changing the whole formula then you aren't making it more fair, you're just building your own heresy corner that you can run with no problems

Orthodoxy is great man you should try an orthodox service it’s a lot less claustrophobic imo because it’s usually just chanters who sing beautifully, try a couple churches

I haven’t prayed to certain saints for anxiety but I’m glad it’s working for you, keep praying 🙏
