- On this channel, I try to show the real life of a friar. That said, there are many things I can't show.

i like how you talk about how you can't show some stuffs while casually teleporting around like a wizard XD
Thank you for lighting up my faith again, returning Catholic.
God bless your journey in returning to Him! Hopefully it has gone well
Am I Catholic? No
Am I religious? Not really
Am I obsessed with this channel? Yes. Yes I am.
Who knows? Watch enough of this channel and we might just change the first two answers!
@@BreakingInTheHabit ive had a rough relationship with God honestly. I was Baptist. Now I just believe in being a good person and doing the best you can. You should do a q&a soon
@Breaking In The Habit , I am Jewish, but enjoy and respect your work. James in Raleigh, NC
@@ashleyphillips7270 I and many others pray for your continued conversion, Ashley. God is love. Let him love you
Same.
I’d honestly find a video on preparing a homily very interesting
1:45 - 2:05
Your halo is showing.
🕊😂🕊
And the video was amazing.
I appreciate how even though you're lowkey trying to convince us, you still accept and help all walks of life
1:12 The first recorded miracle of Jesus Christ involved alcohol. -And the good stuff.
Happy Feast of St. Anthony of Padua, Friar-Priest-Doctor of the Church (June 13):
Almighty, eternal God,
you have given your people St. Anthony
as an outstanding preacher and intercessor in times of need.
Grant that with his help
we may follow the example of Christian living
and experience your support in all adversities.
We ask this in the name of Jesus the Lord. Amen.
This was excellent. It's the first time I've ever heard a vlogger or youtuber or anyone speaking to the public, express this. We can easily forget that the most profound things and many of the most ordinary things may not be able to be shown, seen, or experienced on or by a video.
For me now I can say by not showing the things you cannot show, yet with the explanation and great choice of background music was the best way of showing me what cannot be shown. Maybe the fact that I was on the "inside" once and want to get back was making it easier as I lived, learned and understood those things. Keep on making the videos as they are as always great.
This is amazing....its eye opening yet the benchmark to a new insight of your channel; i love it very much br deacon casey, i consider this channel a very genuine snippet of this great life you lead as well it helps me grow in understanding spiritually, or even when im sick and unable to move your channel keeps me company lol as i watch you talking with fr tuttle for example i think what this channel brings is light , discernment and inspiration so thank you for even taking the time to bring me into your fabulous daily life 😀✌
I think everything you mentioned which you cannot show, it all shines through. The way you present well expresses the realitues behind the camera.
Much love brother Casey.
wow. Thank you for making this video brother. I'm 23 and recently dropped out of university. I'm so confused as to what I want to do in life... Become a farmer? Join the navy? become a teacher abroad? As you can tell I love nature, discipline and structure, and teaching. Maybe I should really consider becoming a friar
Fabien Le Henaff Be sure to look into all the different orders around, and their particular charisms. Talk to a priest, get spiritual direction!
Evan C. I’ll keep that in mind ! Thank you :D
Excuse me, master agree, it's not a choice, it's a call.
or a Monk?
Excuse me, master, totally I am agreeing with you 👍👍👍✌✌✌
God bless you, Brother Casey! You’re such an inspiration to me.
I love these posts. I'm in formation to become a secular Franciscan. I can't get enough of all things Franciscan. Your candid conversations make your journey totally relatable. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Pax et bonum.
It is wonderful to hear about someone (not a friar or nun) who is becoming a part of the Franciscan family and remaining a member of the laity (single or married people in the world). God bless you on this journey of faith, living out your baptism in the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi.
I wonder how many fraternities associated with the Order of Friars Minor exist around the USA. (I know of Roman Catholic and Anglican/Episcopal fraternities around the NYC metropolitan area.)
If you are curious about our region you can find a bit of info by going here: www.queenofpeaceregion.org/ Here in Omaha, NE we have 2 fraternities of lay Franciscans and our fraternity has about 25 members including 3 candidates, of which I am one. We also have a Poor Clare convent in town. My fraternity is a wonderful group of people on fire with the spirits of Francis and Clare. Praise be to God! Thanks for asking - I never tire of sharing the joy of fraternity.
Thanks for your service. You are a class act, a true professional, a humble servant, and a man of God.
Your channel(s), your contents give me much needed peace. I am burned out and completely exhausted from the daily pressure of work and basically my whole life that’s basically been just obstacles after obstacles to overcome. Now I’m trying to get on my feet again, I‘m seeing a therapist and I regularly meditate but nothing has furnished me with so much peace and quiet like you and your content. I believe in God but I don’t practice my faith. I just wanted to say thank you and I‘m looking forward to your upcoming posts.
Wow! Thank you for sharing that with us. The very truth of your life, of your passion. Makes sense to me. For me, Although I enjoy what you do show on camera, I'm content in knowing that there is a part, sacred part of your life that cannot be shown or maybe even explained. Thank you for sharing what you can 💜
Blessings!
Great video of your reality when relating with others in religious life. I love this channel because you are authentic and “real.” Always looking for the next episode. Thanks.
What an awesome and honest video about the simple everyday joys of being a friar.
Peace and All Good Br. Casey !
Of all your videos that I have watched so far, this one is my favorite.
Well said Bro Casey...I was blessed enough to live in the Franciscan community for a year. I also have a few aunts that are nuns and experienced their lives for 6 years. It takes a very special person to devote their entire self and life to God. I highly admire you. Many blessings.
This is a wonderful video, Brother. Thank you very much. God bless you, always. :D
"Below the surface, when the camera is off, that's when our life truly shines" - Thank you, Brother Casey.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent description. All could say is that it’s a stirring in the ❤️!
Father Casey. I really enjoy your blogs you show normalcy to the life of a fryer. I especially enjoyed when you interviewed your mom and sisters. I don't know how you do it it looks exhausting but you love it and I know you're just answering a call. God bless and keep up the good work father casing.
Amen Brother Casey, agree! God bless you and thank you! Greeting from Indonesia!
Thanks God...
That there's much more to it than this channel.
Your (Casey and fraternity) life is yours and is a life of prayer and with foundation in God, not public, not worldly.
You show a lot of what FF do when they go out to the world, and that is great!
Relax and enjoy !
You are obviously a very busy young man living a rich and beautiful life. You presence is loving and authentic. You are clearly doing what you are meant to do! Bless you. You and your brothers will be in my prayers.
Not only do your videos inspire others but your life does too. It's the Ideas you share with us help us in our own lives, we don't need to spend our lives watching every little second of yours, that wouldn't be very beneficial to us, now would it. The moments you do share with your viewers inspire us to live better with God, thank you brother Casey, for all the moments you do show us.
Teresa Cabral, lovely
You don't have to show everything......we Al know there are private moments. We all know there are moments in your life that can't be explained. But what you do.....as in this video........is telling us about it.
Greetings and lots of love from the Netherlands.
Rick
Good bless you xx

Thank you father for your inspirational message , the beauty of the journey is behind the scene of every camera, because I learn to engage reality through just being me.
This is probably the most important video you’ve made. What you and your brothers do is so amazing
Jacob Rominger, my thoughts exactly!
Jacob - this is first vid I’ve seen by brother. He is very good in speaking well to the camera and editing and content. I’m wondering if he had professional background or schooling. Looking at various CZcams ... some guys are very talented. I hope brother Casey does not loose focus which can easily happen when one has too many talents. From experience in long time federal government, lots of guys have lots of brains but can’t speak or deal with others.
Richard Benitez mlm
You are very real and eloquent! I wish someday I will witness your homily and sermon during a mass.
I love how you said that somes you and the brothers fight.
Just like a family. Makes me feel a whole lot better.
Thank you for sharing this and for being honest. God bless you!
You are an amazing person Fr. Casey, thank you for explaining the catholic teachings and the life's of friar's..Thank you!!!.. A proud catholic..God bless the church...Amen🙏🏻
Thanks for these video, I think is very important to remenber that follow Jesus and do God's Will is the best , but that doesn't mean it's going to be easy. God bless you!
I love the "I love beer" part! God bless you in all your travels! Come to Saskatoon once 😁
Father Casey I've been enjoying your videos, from Upon Friar Review, Breaking in the Habit, and my new discovery, Catholism in Focus. This video in particular I enjoyed as it shows a hint of having to live with others. Usually a wonderful thing, but yet, not always without angst and frustration. Give our greetings to your brothers, and know you're helping people come home to Christ. Witness and saved crazy lady right here, so keep up the good work!
This video has a certain poetic quality.
Perfectly understandable. You are blessed and a blessing. I like watching your videos and I thank you for answering your calling. you're a cool dude!!! :-)
Thank you for your videos and sharing your knowledge and experiences.
I'VE just started watching your shows but got a good sence of all you can't show. I guess I was just reading between the lines. My prayers for you and yours.
Your the evangelist the rcc never had. Ur videos are amazing . Was on the verge of leaving rcc , then I found ur channel. Uve given me fresh hope. There r so many catholics who have a very poor catechism and these videos r so valuable.
you are doing a marvelous work... keep it up... this time needs it... the young need it...
beautiful! Just found this channel & subscribed. God bless you!!
I think I echo many of the other comments, however, would love to give you a challenge. As part of my Franciscan formation, I meet with my Novice Guardian, and spend time reflecting on my latest essay or on stuff that has happened. How would you feel, thinking about sharing some of your feelings and reflections on some of those powerful issues that people present you with. Not from their perspective or about them, but your thoughts on how that may be changing you and how the Lord is working in you. It is a joy to see you grow in your ministry through this channel.. Keep up the great work. P et B.
I’m glad you specified that there are things we don’t see. Privacy of your time with Jesus and intentionality with people around you is so important. Those moments need to be private so that you can be fully present. Great job explaining why you don’t vlog every detail. God bless
I love watching your videos Fr God Bless you.
It’s Okay! We understand if you can’t show some things if they’re to private. I enjoy your videos either way😊
Morgan Hawkins My sentiments exactly! ❤❤❤❤
Gracias por compartir un poco de tu vida.. From Costa Rica in Central América.
How about content teaching about devotions? The brown Scapular, Rosary, 3 Hail Mary's daily, Novena's. How about featuring lil 5 min videos on a Saint of the day? Just some thoughts to get others to maybe form devotion who are away from the church or aren't even Catholic. Last idea show us how a bible passage related to an experience you had and how it went or how you changed the outcome of the moment when you reflected on the passage. God bless you for your service to God.
I think it's a "genre thing." There are videos on other CZcams Channels focusing strictly on the various Devotions -- there's Pray More Novenas, Catholic Devotions, Family Theater Productions, Jack Sorianos, and many many more. Catholic Connect or Catholic Online features a Saint of the Day series that they've been posting for years.
So because there is religious content on youtube he cant do it?
I love those who commit their lives to faith. I may be a lapsed believer but I admire those who have it
I've wanted to be a priest for a long time Br. Casey and I've wanted to be a Franciscan for a long time as well. Your videos and your book help keep that hope alive. Some days I wish I could be right there with you and the other brothers "breaking in the habit" and doing the will of Our Lord.
W Cornett, May God bless you....take your take time 👍👍👍
Amen!!!
it is great how you know what to share and what not that takes discipline it also takes a certain amount of courage to admit it and still want to keep going
It's nice to know the faith is doing great in different parts of the world. Keep doing what you do, God bless you and do pray for us CZcams folk.
I was back reading your blog before you made CZcams videos. The one thing that you carry with you in all of your platforms is words. Even sans pictures or limited pictures (Ex: The Instagram bicycle story, Instant Classic) you paint pictures. I could see you and your brethren in all the activities you could not film. As long as you spend time stringing words together whether talking to someone or writing, you are going to be fine.
Thanks!
Thank you for this great, introspective video. Can you please make a video about prayer? How can we make our prayers the best possible and how can we escape occasional monotony while praying the rosary...?
thank you for remembering in all good things
Brother Casey, not exactly related to the topic of the video exactly but how did you stage that mirror shot? It looked cool.
Now on to the topic of the video, I know it's not all what you show us because I've written you. Your response was amazing and humble and one of the most spiritual conversations I've had since my faith started wavering. That's why I keep watching, even as a non-Catholic, because there's something deep and different about how you live your life. I can just feel it. You have a connection to God I envy. Thank you for what you do show us and for doing all those things you can't show us.
He staged the mirror shot by placing a camera on the side and then going on the other side.
When I read coments like this they remind to be thankful to God for the gift of faith and also that I have to take care of it! Thank you, I´ll pray for you and remember you can always ask God for faith, it´s a gift He is always willing to give
@@florenciaescobar191 😉
Thank you for your videos. I find them interesting as it is a perspective I might never have. I was wondering why we never see you praying or doing work.
Thank you for this.
There are perhaps some things we need to feel or experience for ourselves, they cannot be rehearsed or filmed. Like sense of His love and grace being with us, always.
Hello Fr. Casey. Thank you for your wonderful videos. I really enjoy them. Listening to this video it sounds like you want to share more of yourself - to give even more. Perhaps sharing some things as a vlog is not the best medium for them. And so perhaps you can share other experiences through writing or even a book.
Just a suggestion.
God bless your ministry.
I think we should talk. I already find the [Franciscan] friars inspiring in what they do. Your videos show me how Friars are regular humans like the rest of us. It also gives insight into many things I didn't know about the church, including things I've never really thought about.
another thought provoking video. Cheers Br. Cole
I think I've said this before. You're a natural cleric with premier 21st Century telecommunication skills.
I love Brother Casey! I would really love to see the things you can't show. That would be the best part of these videos. I'm not a believer, but it's all so appealing.
I'm not by any means a follower of yours, nor of your religion, but somehow I ended up in your channel watching "The Five Funniest Religious Jokes" video, or something to that extent. Anyways, you seem straightforward and sincere. Keep it up. From Israel, kol hakavod!
Those things you can’t show are the things that really draw me to religious life. It’s beautiful.
Brother Casey, I agree with privacy within community; yet there are many videos on CZcams presenting a communal prayer service. I believe it would be a valuable snippet of your life similar to a vocational promo, which gives a complete representation of your life as a brother. Privacy grant it; I get it and I’m sure you can present that, I also know the value of community vote or opinions. I enjoy your videos and life, and hope you can continue to reveal the the value of Religious Life in our world. 😀
Bro Casey...what about coming to Italy and offer your amazing service here in my parish??? It would be a marvellous idea!!! I thank so much for your bright, enlightening, lovely witness as a young man of God!!!!
You’re an incredible soul.
Well said and well done.
Love the “Arrested Development” reference!
Very insightful
it's true. some of the best experience just can be experienced by living as the clergy. I miss living like that again, to be close to God in a particular way not meant that a clergical life is more or less than non clergy, but it's a way worth travelling and worth living. I joined seminary 5 years ago, later God decide that perhaps better for me to have outside experience as well through university. Still I miss becoming a religious. To live for a cause that can only be understand by living it to the fullest, till the end, for God.
Welcome to Athens, GA! You'll like it here
New subscriber here from the Philippines and I'm a Catholic. 😇😇😇
God bless you dear
So glad you talked about this
Amazing!
It is good to hear a bit -- just a bit -- of an apology for disseminating illusion.
I condone this message 🥰🙏
Good day! Brother / Rev. Casey, sorry for my bad grammaring, I am Benedict from the Philippines...
Thank you for your sharing even not all... just as the Bible says like in our Lord ministry in the Gospel of John 21 : 25... tho It is truely inspring I am looking forward to someday meet you personally... or talk to you someday... I just wandering if your community have a formation house here in the Philippines? Thank you and Keep up the holy and good work of yours!
Please bring Fr Tuttle back. He's your inspiration and teacher. Help us learn from his joyful eyes. Help us learn YOUR inspiration. Coming from a young guy may help us understand what are the upcoming changes in the faith and the church especially in the current dark time. Please.
Very good, I shall subscribe (just have) and watch with growing interest.
Hello Thank you very much for your enthusiasm and explaining of the Catholic faith . I represent my Anglican Church in ourChurches together group locally. We work together , doing lent courses, worshiping and studying . If there are chasms to heal between us, we are trying here in the North of England. What more would you suggest we do . I think it’s moving Some of us take part fully in both communions which from your talk you wouldn’t agree with. It’s horrible not being able to fully partake. Thanks again
"Joy, which was the small publicity of the pagan, is the gigantic secret of the Christian. And as I close this chaotic volume I open again the strange small book from which all Christianity came; and I am again haunted by a kind of confirmation. The tremendous figure which fills the Gospels towers in this respect, as in every other, above all the thinkers who ever thought themselves tall. His pathos was natural, almost casual. The Stoics, ancient and modern, were proud of concealing their tears. He never concealed His tears; He showed them plainly on His open face at any daily sight, such as the far sight of His native city.
Yet He concealed something.
Solemn supermen and imperial diplomatists are proud of restraining their anger. He never restrained His anger. He flung furniture down the front steps of the Temple, and asked men how they expected to escape the damnation of Hell.
Yet He restrained something.
I say it with reverence; there was in that shattering personality a thread that must be called shyness. There was something that He hid from all men when He went up a mountain to pray. There was something that He covered constantly by abrupt silence or impetuous isolation. There was some one thing that was too great for God to show us when He walked upon our earth; and I have sometimes fancied that it was His mirth."
G. K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy, 1908
Greetings to you Br. Casey and to everybody on this channel. From Italy 🌿🌿🌿🌿💒💒💒💒
Beautiful.... Wow... I am admiring the way u put it...
Good, honest video.
So film a dark night of the soul episode and balance it out once in a while. I prob wouldn't be alone in finding encouragement in some gut punching battles with acedia and despair. Beats the hell out of "lolling about in an emotionally satisfying faith."
Hmmm looks like the datachment of the dark night has an interesting effect in you its nice isnt it? The joy found in suffering is knowing that you are united to your beloved closer then ever the greatest glory of all of the mounts Jesus was on it wasnt the Mount with Elijah and Moses and Jesus transfigured, it wasn't the mount of olives either where an angel consoled him but Golgotha where the greatest of colsolation was given and this actually should be emotionally charging because you know your cross is teeny tiny compared to the one our Master endured out of love for us. In song of songs 3 the soul exclaims 1Bride: On my bed, throughout the night, I sought him whom my soul loves. I sought him, and did not find him.
But then when in this unity of suffering the one you sought in sorrow is found and kept in your heart more heated in suffering because you know the gaze is their more deeply then anything and theres nothing else that matters to you. The flowery bosom is ignited because it suffers with our Lord in abandonment and pain its an honor to share every sting cuz its small. Thanks for sharing your comment lol i love the dark night as well i ponder it often as well the song of songs i might be wrong on the interpretation but its interesting what your willing to go thru for love
The best music's evade capture by man's devices too, it can only be experiencing in the moment, making it together
I am glad you had this conversation with us. Great topic, and it's important.
I have been watching your videos for only 2 weeks, and have gained a lot of knowledge about your life. I am Episcopalian. I grew up in Seattle, my family was not religious for most part. Fairly typical of people from this region. I was drawn to images of the Catholic Church, as a child. At the age of 26, or around that time I decided the Episcopal Church was a good fit. I am out, proud man, who was searching for acceptance from my Church.
I am curious how do you pay for traveling, and housing, and your overall lifestyle? You mention you took a vow of poverty. I am somewhat attracted to the idea of that life. It also scares me at the sametime. I am fine with no being in a romantic relationship. I have not been in a serious relationship for years. I was raised by mother, who divorced when I was baby. Sorry ffg or the long post. I have been attracted to the idea of religious order for long time. Slightly fearful, but mostly thats about meeting basic needs. I have done discernment with a group from my church in past. That was amazing experience, and very helpful. Thanks for sharing your experiences. I am learning a lot, and will continue to watch. I am 50, and thinking I am late to the table.
OMG !!! I would LOVE TO JOIN !! To serve GOD and OTHERS !!! OMG LOVE YOUR VIDEOS !!! God bless you Br. Casey !!
Those moments you can't show us are sacred moments..... they need to be experienced in person to be understood. God is in the still, small voice.
This is one of your best scripted videos. Fantastic.
That's so beautiful and inspiring...I think religious life can be fun too.
When I wasn't out riding on a fire rig I was working as volunteer as a maintenance / janitor at local church and on Saturdays morns when I was off myself and Father Pastor would go and get donuts and come back to the church basement and steal the ladies guild chocolate milk from funerals or what ever and sit and talk and laugh and eat .. and I would always tease father about giving a rerun homily at his 5 o'clocker that day. I sure miss those times RIP my friend...
Slightly similar to what many of us do everyday on social media. We go to interesting places and post the best of our pics etc. and then await the feedback. The thing is, quite often, there are other images we could post from these areas, like broken wine bottles, beer cans, rubbish strewn about, drunks and addicts wandering the backstreets etc. The nice pics only tell half the story.
& i Also Love Your Jedi stories!!^^ Xoxo
