Enjoy the tour of my icon corner, on the occasion of which I removed the cobwebs.
Beautiful
Those poor spiders. They just wanted to get closer to Jesus.
Bojan, it is beautiful and very conducive to prayer
Do you follow Jonathan Pageau on CZcams? Or see any of his Icon works?? If so what are your thoughts on his talks/works?
Do you know the name of your guardian angel?
Your guardian angel sounds like he has a good sense of humor.
I’m pretty sure mine just bangs his head against the wall by now.
Senor Sirowatko: HaHaHaHaHaHaHaaaaaa!
I'm fairly sure mine does the same. XD
Vampires hate him. Find out how this man defends his home from all things demonic
You're right. NOT FUNNY! Icons illustrate the Christian faith which has been previously revealed before that.
@@Master_Blackthorne Is there a deleted comment?
Oh, I especially love the Angels making the sign of the cross, what a beautiful way to remind one that in order to pray one does not need words.
This is something I'd like to get a copy of also
I knew just looking at the "I can do all things through christ" sign that it was from us, Americans, haha!
Thanks for the tour
lol Yup! I like it a lot!
The icon of the Holy Archangels and Guardian Angel is unique, and all are an incredible treasure. Thank you for sharing!
I especially like the icon of the Japanese ambassador who saved many Lithuanians and "Litvish" Lithuanian Orthodox Jews from the Holocaust.
You make your prayer corner come alive Bojan. Very personal, you made me feel like family. Jingle jingle swing swing away , thank you
Jingle jingle swing swing
Amen
Hahaha that's not the prayer😁😁😁😁
It don't mean a thing unless it's got that swing.
Your angel is savage as all heaven
I really like the icon of the Archangels and Guardian Angel, doing the Sign of the Cross!
Thank you for the privilege of allowing us to visit your home and being given a tour of your Icon Corner. Your Guardian Angel must have a quiet life as you are such a good man who will not need much guidance to keep on the righteous path! Blessings and peace be with you always Sir
Thank you for sharing this beautiful corner of your home, your guardian angel cannot be accused of not having a sense of humour!
You are so funny! "...and that is the only slim thing about you..."
Very interesting! I have only one little icon of the Virgin Mary and little Christ. There is just something really unique about icons, whenever I feel sad or depressed it makes me relax, helps me improve my mood
I don't know if this is an acceptable belief, but I think that Orthodox icons emanate a certain energy of the Holy Spirit by grace.
@@seronymus no wonder they are called windows to Heaven.
Haha at 11:35 I was thinking "Boy that really looks like something from Buckee's here in Texas"
Beautiful icons, thanks for sharing.
The Icon Corner is very special and this is a wonderful example. It is good to have a focal point.
Such wonderful treasures! You have a beautiful icon corner.
OMG this is so beautiful! I made one as well a few years ago. It's the most sacred place in my home. If my home were to catch on fire, I would salvage my prayer corner first, then my relatives haha just kidding.
Thank you for sharing your prayer corner with us brother in Christ ❤
Savina Zúñiga Jesus always said “icons before family”
Very beautiful. I have heard of Bishop Dimitri leaving incorrupt relics.
If you’re talking about Archbishop Dmitri, he has! My dad was at the re-burial or whatever it’s called. His body was uncorrupt. Also I got a blessing from him as a young child 😁
I love this! Being a Protestant convert to orthodox I haven't seen many icon corners. Beautiful. My husband and I have been brought into the church on Holy Saturday this year. We really enjoy your videos and are blessed by them. We love your channel and love the humor. 😄 The light hearted nature of your videos help make orthodoxy more approachable to Protestants. God bless!
Glory to God! Welcome home!
As a catholic, respect for having a rosary. I have a prayer rope too with my rosaries so we’re like inverses hahaha
Beats My altar by a long shot, Bojan.
Very impressive 👍👍👍👍
It's a lovely and charming tour with a very amusing quip for a conclusion. Also, I didn't know Atrus' study had an icon corner. You'll forgive me, the general musical atmosphere and the focus on the desk items just evoked Myst and D'ni for some reason.
Thank you for the impressive and human tour of your icon corner! :-) I mean telling stories about each one when I say human.
This is beautiful. Thank you
Thank you!
Have you thought about painting your own icons with acrylic paint as the medium? It would make a great medium if you intend to make an icon to pass down through the generations because acrylic paint takes an estimated 400 years to fade on direct sunlight or fluorescent light and if kept out of direct sunlight it basically almost never fades.
Beats My altar by a long shot, Bojan.
Very impressive 👍👍👍👍
Edit: Oh my goodness we have the same censer XD (the front one) that's amazing
Where did you buy that from? :)
I pray to have an icon corner like yours one day, it's beautiful and harrowing. I think my favorites are the White Angel and the gorgeous velvet one; I mean all are gorgeous but those struck me the most. Saint George's eyes too I couldn't even look at long, I struggle with eye contact in general and his eyes were so real! Thank you for showing us all this. I love the calming music too, what is it?
Also I wonder what video game you referenced for the angels making the cross you mentioned?
Right off, before the 1st minute is up Bojan had me laughing and spitting out my dinner. I too like only halos that are round and i insist on it ....
Wow it is inspiring to see. It is like seeing the roofs of cathedrals where I live. Very good.
I agree about St. George. Those eyes are staring through you. It's a beautiful icon corner. Cheers from a Canadian Roman Catholic. I have many icons which I have written myself.
So Bojan, what is the name of the chaple that you are a reader at?
I see you have a King James with illustrations by Gustave Dore, my sister got me one for christmas , its absolutely beautiful. Which bible do you most commonly read? Do you read mostly the bible and church fathers, or do you find enjoyment in other works of literature also? Thanks for making another great video, its a joy for me everytime you upload something!
Sadly the king James lacks many books and the septuagint
@@hectordanielsanchezcobo7339 you can get the KJV 1611 it has everything
As a Catholic I have to ask my Orthodox brethren, why would you use the protestant bible edited by Shakespeare for a heretic prince? It was vandalised of many books and is a poor translation even if it sounds beautiful. I might quote it as I grew up in a protestant country where that is what we hear but to study the bible with that version? Only if there was not a good Catholic or Orthodox translation because I know where that came from, I do not know King James.
@@RedRiverMan There is a better translation of the New Testament for Orthodox but NKJV with the commentary will do just fine. (Orthodox Study Bible)
There aren’t many good orthodox English translations. The orthodox study Bible is good just because it has all the books. The English converts seem to use any translation that is credible.
I can't even afford a tiny crucifix. I just purchased a pretty rendering of the Jesus prayer and went looking for more things which none of them could I afford.
Same here. I have a few pictures of Jesus that have been given or gotten at a thrift store and a little cross from a crafts section of a store, but it works and in time it will grow.
I just buy printed icons, there still on wood, but there not hand painted like Bojan's
Greetings from Bajmok, Serbia
Very nice. Music was a tad too loud. I was hoping you would show your books. Perhaps in another video?
I need to go ahead and get some icons so I can get started on making an icon corner
You have such a beautiful Icon Corner!
Lol, I just keep binge watching your stuff, I not only learn a lot from you but also need the laugh. I loved the commentary in the last minute, partly due to shared guilt of "prayer minimalism," lol
That's beautiful
Love the blue backgrounds and frames..... I am used to the red brown... Love your sense of humor.... I just discovered you, will make sure to watch all your videos.
Praise Jesus! Thank you Jesus! In Jesus Name I pray! Amen ❤️🙏📖
Love it. Those are all quite beautiful. I love the WWII saint. One of my personal heroes is Witold Pilecki who I am convinced is a saint.
What is the canonization process in the Orthodox Church? Is there overlap in the case of schism?
*St. Anthony of Padua, patron of lost things
St. Jude, patron of lost causes
I think it's just once a bunch of people are pretty sure he's a saint, he is. Then Priests'll mention him, and their bishops, and then their Patriarch. If your dude is probably a saint, ask people about it. Pray on it. Maybe he'll be like Saint Nicholas and pop in, let you see your right. If not, no biggie. Typically a Synod meeting will be called to investigate, and as long as he didn't steal from the cookie jar while he was little and was good, he'll be canonised. Before Canonization, they are in the "Glorified phase", ie some think he's a Saint, including some priests etc, but the Synod hasn't made a decision.
@@FirstNameLastName-is6yb I am certain that he is in heaven and therefore is a saint. I believe he lived a life of heroic virtue - the man intentionally had himself arrested and sent to Auschwitz. There he set up an underground resistance and passed on information about the horrors going on there.
He has not been declared a saint by the Catholic Church and to my knowledge there is no cause for sainthood open.
@@carissstewart3211 Heroic acts don't make a Saint; if that were the case, Desmond Doss and Churchill would be saints (Or, demons, demanding on your politics, no judgements here.) He sounds like a great man, but I'm note sure he seems worthy of Glorification. I'd take it up with your Starets.
@@FirstNameLastName-is6yb just to be clear, I'm Catholic. I'm simply curious to know the difference between the canonization processes between our two Churches.
I agree that heroism doesn't make a saint. I also admire a group of female aviators known as the Night Witches, but as they were Soviets, well, I'll be pleasantly surprised to meet them in heaven.
Heroic acts don't make saints. Christ does. Coupled with saving faith, heroic acts may point to the action of sanctifying grace in one's soul.
Sounds good to me.
That top Angels icon is WOW!
Nice icon corner and nice Kerbal Space Program music
lol Curious, is it too loud?
Yeah it drowns out your voice a bit
Archbishop +Dmitri was my bishop and an amazing man.
Beautiful, thank you for sharing
God bless your love and veneration for God and His hosts. It is right to uphold the Orthodox tradition and its order.
I AM OFFICIALLY JELLY
Thank you for sharing such a personal icon corner with us we have one in our house as well havala
Wonderful collection
I am a Catholic and so fascinated with icons. Hope I could acquire one
I am too. I print them, beacuse I don't have money to buy them lol
I like the blue backround of the icons!!!!!!
The first icon in Russia is called the Almighty (Вседержитель , in Greek - παντοκράτωρ). You said that your patron saint is St. George, and I am from a city named after him and he is the patron saint of Groda. My city is called Yuriev-Polsky (Юрьев-Польский).
Thanks so much for sharing your inspiring prayer corner. I am learning so much from your videos. I am Roman Catholic. I recently watched your video about TOLL HOUSES - what Roman Catholics call indulgences. I am not inspired and I am a follower of the Rule of Saint Benedict, which takes its inspiration from Saint Gregory. Are there any Orthodox in the Boston area you can recommend me too??? THANKS SO MUCH. 👍🏻🙏🏻💓✝✡☪☦
Don’t keep believing Islam is Abrahamic religion
Islam is not an Abrahamic religion, allah is not YHWH
Beautiful Icon Corner. The icon of the archangels and your guardian angel was very nice, I wish I had an icon like that.
14:05 LOOOL
Your icon corner is so neat compared to mine. Mine is so janky, like a not well thought out patchwork quilt.
Thank you for sharing!
Maybe make a video about the baha'i faith?
I just noticed since you said something 3 of my icons have no inscription. One of Apostle Paul, John Chrysostom, and one of Christ pulling Peter from the water. I will just assume that these icons need no introduction lol
How beautiful!
I have three icons...
One is the Mother of God,Holy face and the resurrection(just like you have) I bought it in the minor basilica of the Immaculate Conception(also called Manila Cathedral) here in the Philippines
Thank you so much!
Very cool thanks..👍🏽❤️🩹
That cough tho .... hahahaha ;)
tzo ra anyone watching this cough in 2020 and thinking oh noooooooo.....
It’s hard to explain to non-Orthodox our connection to Saints. Or ‘how’ that happens. Harder to explain we rarely choose a Saint. That instead they tend to choose us and the way they do this is infinite.
Absolutely beautiful, glory to God! I also liked the music but it was a bit hard to hear you sometimes over it not sure if it was just me or what but thought I'd let you know.
That is why I stopped using it in other videos. :-)
nice
What does it mean to have oil blessed with a relic? I read something about Dominicans doing that but I had no idea what was going on
Amazing
Thanks!
@@BanterWithBojan the icon corner is heaven on earth in our houses...our houses have to become a church....I lovethat blue in the icons...it's heaven.....God bless you
@2:07 Oh no brother, every detail in the icons has its meaning, you shouldn't ask the iconographer to change anything (except the size).
Are “twin” guardian angels a possibility?
If so…thank you both!! ;)
What your angel says 😂😂😂
Is there a required amount or a limit to how many icons you can have. ?
You dont need icons at all, they are peripherals. And there isn't a limit. I personally use icons to better focus myself while praying
Гуслар Испод Брда Thanks for the reply. I've only know Orthodoxy for about 2 months. It's a lot to take in.
Is there any way I can buy some of these icons
Very lovely icon corner, I like the stuff on the lower tier more. Icons are still a little strange to me, a bit intimidating. Your spiritual father is in Texas?
I love the blue
Snarky angel you got there. Lol.
As a Catholic your icon corner is better than my altar
I have a few icons, only ones of Jesus and theotokos for now, i am planning on getting the cross on the wall, and a Saint Michael icon. my patron saint
where may I have an icon written. thank you, appreciate it.
jingle jingle swing swing
Could i just print icons because i couldn't find icon seller nearby?
What is the purpose of holy oil? I got one as a gift and I don't know what to do.
You annoint yourself with it on the forehead; I will make a video on it. :-)
@@BanterWithBojan I can agree Orthodox practices sure are AWESOME! (Same as Catholic practices, I don't know why but I'm desiring to put some Orthodox practices in my Catholic life.)
Haha, yeah, they're pretty neat!
Hey Bojan
I don't necessarily have an icon corner because my entire room is full of icons 😅 but I really admire your icon corner and I hope one day to send you a traditional Coptic Icon 😃
I want to make my own Icon corner. But i do not know where to buy Icons. Specially icons of my patron saint; St. Bishu (even as my patron saint, every other person spells it differently). Could you shed some light Bojan?
Your guardian angel is pretty sassy haha
Tbh I just know st. Nektarios from the Agni parthene 😂
Where did you purchase the icon of St. John Chrysostom from? The one in the upper right. It's beautiful.
A friend of mine painted it. She's very inexpensive, so if you'd like to commission an icon from her, let me know :-)
@@BanterWithBojan I would very much! Also I recently became a patron of yours. My username is SWRDFSHTRMBNS. You can message me there.
Bible Illustrated Hands I would love an icon of St John Chrysostom. Where can I get her information?
What Is an proper icon
The cheapest icons that I have are printed by lithography on glossy paper which is simply glued on to a wooden panel.
More expensive than that are “handmade” icons which are printed directly on to the wood by a silkscreen. This process is also known as serigraphy and it is not misleading to call it handmade. Serigraphy can put a thick layer of ink or paint on wood, and the paint can be actual gold.
Still more expensive are fully hand painted icons. These are said to be “written” since they always have some text, and the picture is like an adjunct to the text.
Catholics should know that the preamble to Pastor Aeternus commits the Pope to respecting the veneration of icons. His Holiness has the power to close down the Latin Mass, but evidently not the power to prohibit icon corners in the home. One to bear in mind if things get rough.
Catholics might also consider getting a cheap laminator and having a few laminated prayers to take on holiday. I keep mine in the car boot and can call at a strange church to say a prayer like the Litany of Loreto in the Lady Chapel or the church itself if it is dedicated to Our Lady.
I would suggest getting a laminator and building up a collection of laminated prayers first, and then acquiring a few serigraphs. You may search for the Litany of Loreto online by highlighting the text with your mouse, right-clicking and then left-clicking to search.
Icons remind me of the Lindisfarne Gospels. The icons of the Four Evangelists have their names in Greek but with Latin letters. The text of the Gospels is Latin.
You're funny, I like your videos :))
Do I know you? B-)
@@BanterWithBojan no, I don't think so :D
Where did you get your censor?? It’s beautiful. I would love my own.
Wow, troll angel! Bojan, I am confused. Do you live in Serbia or in USA?
Serbia :-)
@@BanterWithBojan Thank you my friend! I though I heard something about the USA, so I was confused, since your accent is Balkan-like. Greetings from Orthodox Greece!
I NEED HELP IN ARGUMENTS ABOUT A FRIEND OF MINE WHO IS BAPTIST...THEY TALK ABOUT TRANSLATION OF BIBLE...KJV AS THE ONLY ONE...AND MESORETIC TEXT AS SOURCE...
DO YOU HABE ANYTHING OR SUGGEST SOME GOOD LINKS TO SHOW HIM HIS HERETICAL VIEWS KNKWS OR NOT
IF YOU DO HAVE ANY GOOD IDEAS PLEASE SHARE WITH US.
GOD BLESS YOU.
That's so kool
What is the difference between an icon and an idol?

How much did this cost you
Who can you buy icons from? I saw a guy who painted icons at a Christmas market but didn't buy his icons because they weren't blessed and I only buy them from churches or monasteries. But now I hear you talking about an iconographer - would they have been okay to buy?
I write icons and always take them to a priest to be blessed.
Where did you find that Chiune Sugihara icon? I'd love to add one to my corner but I can't find one anywhere online.
I comissioned it from an iconographer and we made a couple of prints form the original. Write to me via my e-mail address under 'About' tab on my main channel (Bible Illustrated) and I'll send you the full sized image so you can mount it :-)
Could you recommend some sermons of St. John Chrysostom? Particularly on social issues and care for the poor.
