I'm deeply grateful for the opportunity to sit with Bedros and talk with him about issues men are facing. I'll try to keep up with comments here and respond as I'm able.
I got a message for your father that he might want to do a sermon on, I’ve never heard a sermon on the masculinity of Jesus. If he does it i hope he puts it online Thanks again 💯
This may be a little off topic, and really difficult for me to text you this, but I really wanted to thank you Bedros, for reminding me in one of your videos, to send out three messages of gratitude. One of the recipients to those messages what's my father, thanking him for everything he's ever done for me and the stoic love he's always held for me. He appreciated the message and said he loves me too. By the end of the week he had passed away. Now I sit here in his house trying to get everything taken care of and I just wanted to thank you for the reminder because you never know when you're going to have your last conversation with someone so close to your heart. Thank you for affording me that last moment with my old man!
This is amazing. Everything happens for a reason. Your father probably needed that last conversation with you before going. Had one similar with my dad, we forgave each other fully and he passed away a little after. I was so happy we were able to do that. The best compliment I have gotten from my father was “I respect you like a man not just like my son, I see you as a good man and I wish I could be more like you. You’re always composed well and I wish I could be like that.” Him saying he wished he was more like me, I always wished I was more like him growing up and wanted to be like him so that really made me happy. Ironically after his passing, I haven’t been able to be like that but I’m finding myself again and I’m happy for it. You aren’t alone in the good fight brother 🙏🏻
I am currently a 23 year old navy veteran who doesn’t like partying, drinking, or doing drugs. Coworkers, “friends “ will say to go out to a bar and get fucked up. My beautiful girlfriend and I will have great adventures were we get to know each other more without having to be intoxicated. We love going to boxing practice, that’s our way to party. We teach each other different techniques, we motivate each other when the other one is struggling to finish the run, but the most beautiful aspects about it all is that we are always having different conversations. Ironically enough her and I met through boxing practice. It all started because I wasn’t able to get my mouth guard because I had put my wraps and gloves on, she offered to help me with getting the mouth guard for me from my backpack. At first I was going to tell her “ I don’t want your help” but instead I said “ thank you, I would really appreciate it” from that moment we haven’t left each other’s side. She confessed to me that she was actually really scared to offer me help because of how serious I looked, she thought that I would yell at her. Now you’ll catch me helping her do her hair so it doesn’t get in her face when we play basketball, meanwhile the other girls or boys around us will say something positive about our relationship.
Unbelievable! As a Greek borned as an Orthodox and frequently visit a lot of different churches and meet a lot of priests or fathers it's the first time I see somebody that cares for his body. There is a lot of meaning in this dear gentlemen... Bravo Bedros!
Father Michael is the the most outstanding man that I have ever met. He is the most genuine and stoic man you could ever be in company with. #swolefather
Leveling myself up has been the biggest and most brutal thing I have ever done in my life. Learning how to undo the usual thing that I was use to, taking the huge leap from working a warehouse job, living my life as others see fit, wondering life aimlessly with no true north direction to starting my own LLC and setting my own path. Since listening to you and acting on the characteristics that I desired from my own father or men around me I have started to raised the bar of who I need to be. I found myself lost yet again but in a good way: I don’t know much about owning a business or what it takes but I know that every single emotion that I have gone through in the recent months are shaping my foundation and breaking the mold that I was in. I still battle demons like every other man and young man that watch listen and absorb every word you speak. I am here to say thank you for being that man that you knew the world needed so we can be the MEN that we needed in our own lives. I am not saying this to put you on a pedestal but more say that you are the Cus D'Amato to our Mike Tyson. You know that we have greatness in us and teach us how to sharpen the knives we already have in us….to make this a bit more personal…I will elevate to the level I know I am am capable of surpassing and I will thank you in person and shake your hand….you have my fucking word - Khaliq Esaw PS happy Father’s Day PSS I will see you at the Challenge before June 19th, 2025 my 30th birthday
Labeling is a losing game and it’s become a way of life these days. I experienced something very similar and it led me to change my self image. Labeling changes your identity and it’s all downhill from there!
@@BedrosKeuilian Yessir! Enjoyed the episode thoroughly and will be following Father Butler's content as well, I might add! Thank you for sharing with us - Especially those of us that don't have anyone of our own to wish a happy father's day to on this day.
Ya know, I’m 29 and I’ve been looking for a while for what it was that just felt off for me as a man. These guys just blew the roof off of so much that I was kiiiinda on track about, but just askew enough to cause massive issues. Thank you so much for this episode.
I'm from Brazil and I'm 21 years old, Bedros Keuilian is being my mentor through these videos about masculinity, change of habit, core values, change of mentality... Thank you for everything.
I am14,I realized that lots of teachers told me not to do this,not to do that, just be quiet and listen to the lessons which I am not interested. But A MAN SHOULD DO PASSION,I should develop the thing I want
If you are 14, you will need to do both. There are things you need to learn in school; try to find what's good and useful in it; it can serve you well for the rest of your life. At the same time, keep a place in your day for your passion, for sure. I hope it is a passion that will help you flourish in life, that eventually will add value to your life and to other people. Those are the kind that, in time, turn out to be the most satisfying and fulfilling. Blessings on your journey.
Love the talk. I just got out of the military, after 8 years of intel and and aircrewmen, I find myself bored and feeling unfulfilled. I know what needs to be done now
@@avg2alpha321 but father I do have a conundrum. I got out because of my 7 year old son, and im 38 years old. I could do some contracting work but it takes me away from my son for 6 months to a year, on the other side I can use that money and build my business. If I’m unable to find that 6 month contract I’m stuck on 1 year contracts. What’s your opinion?
Excellent podcast. Im a teacher in a predominantly female occupation. Absolutely we need to be mentors to other men and boys. Masculinity is a gift. Embrace it and all of society benefits. Great wisdom in this podcast and my respect to both these men.
Man, ya’ll are speaking to me. I’m the poster boy for this episode. I appreciate you so much! It’s funny you mention cause I always think of you as Uncle Bedros 😂 God bless you both
I'm a woman listening to this. Somewhat numb by knowing and hoping there are more men would listen and reflect on what shared in this conversation. Lord have mercy on men who are lost and being deceived by the false world. In Jesus name. Amen ❤✝️🙏🙌💪
What an incredible episode that was! Everything you guys talked about hit so close to home I felt like God gave me the answers I needed without even knowing it myself. May the Lord bless you two and Fr. Michael you've got yourself a new follower.
Im glad he's orthadox and not run of the mill catholic. If you know, you know. Great guest and episode. Wish I had both you guys around when I was a young man.
Well, I'm glad to be Orthodox, too. And I produce this content so that maybe a few younger men won't have to flounder for as long as I did. I hope to be helpful.
Powerful words of wisdom. Masculinity is a gift from God, and it's our responsibility as Men to master his craft of art. Father Michael and Big Brother Bedros thank you my generation of Men and Woman motivated and inspired
Thank you Father for your generosity to share this wisdom! Thank god, I am a 26 year old man and really needed to hear some of this stuff. Thank you as well Bedros for your time and sharing your knowledge and experience with us! You are a true leader and are inspiring me to put down my vices and be a better man for the people around me in society. I’m blessed to have found your channel bro. God bless!
Thank you father. Even though I'm not a Christian, your message really resonates with me, especially that part on the reason a lot of young men are lost is because the cost of being a great men is too high from their perspective and that makes them want to settle to the lesser thing. Again, thank you and look forward to hearing you from other podcasts.
I wish I didn't wait to long to watch it. I posted on one of your vids a while back. You replied back with what Father Michael mentioned to you about a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Those words ring in my head everyday. I keep thinking about that and well, Thank you both. I needed to hear that.
Good day, @BedrosKeuilian. Thank you for a life changing content. I've been following you both on RU-vid and Spotify. I listen to all your podcasts religiously. They have changed my life especially growing up without a father; I'm 29 years, a qualified teacher in SA and a part-time photographer and a personal trainer; I'm leading a family of six as a young man, and sometimes it's overwhelming to lead but it's such content that makes me want to man up and carry my cross everyday. Thank you to your guest as well for reminding me that there's nothing wrong with seeking to become exceptional men. Indeed average is the enemy and success it's my responsibility...
Now this podcast and especially this episode has the abundance of knowledge needed to restore men’s masculinity, Bedros and father Michael well done for doing Gods work. God Bless
What a fabulous and highly inspiring conversation! Your combined strength as men, and reassurance of our innate masculine role has inspired me to find ways to become better for myself, my wife, family and community. I seldom sit through a discussion this long, but this one captured my full attention. Thank you both for your open honesty.
Great conversation B and excellent job on building the conversation on comments and statements he made reference to and creating a question for in depth explanations.
Awesome collaboration with Father Michael. Following him now as well. Idk about anyone else but Personally I love the idea of a regular collaboration between both of these great men.
I'm not a religious man. This pod eleviated a lot of stereotypical myths I thought I knew about church leaders of his age. He sounds like he's not in a bubble, open minded, modern minded, healthy and warm. Thanks brother man. This is simple and powerful.
What an awesome conversation! I usually prefer podcast under 40 minutes, but that wouldn't have done this message justice. Thanks to both of you for doing this.
This is such a beautiful interview. I am so thankful to you Bredros for bringing such a man with wisdom to your platform to share with us some qualities of leadership and manhood. This is golden.
Fantastic conversation. A great listen on this Father's Day. I applaud the deep dive and sense of urgency around brotherhood, mentorship, and masculinity. Bravo!👊
Currently at this point in my life I'm striving to achieve everything I want. It's hard because you hit walls where your duty you served is overlooked due to focus on other areas where people place more emphasis on versus where it really needs to be. But I won't give up or give in....I must do better...i will do better...I will be better!!
People know the knowledge but do not do because they don’t want it bad enough. When there why becomes strong enough then they’ll do. I love this! Thank you for sharing the video.
Im only 20 mins in at time of leaving this comment but wow what a great guest Father Butler is. Also, listening to Bedros podcast has totally changed my mind on him overall for the best. These two men are genuine souls that are shining a light for men everywhere. These podcasts make me trust Bedros BIG TIME
Man this show had so much important information in it that I will have to rewatch it I’m starting my podcast soon and this guy have imports so much wisdom in my to do one
