Fr. Barnabas Powell Interview - The Orthodox View of Masculinity

[Music] hello Antiochian men this is Michael Bock leg with another interview in our a men interview series we have a very special guest with us today it is very exciting to have with us father Barnabas Powell pastor of Saint Raphael Nicholas and Irene Greek Orthodox Church in Georgia father Barnabas thank you very much for joining us today it is certainly my pleasure and God bless all of our Antiochian min thank you Father Barnabas I've so been looking forward to this interview and before even speaking to you I feel like I know you so well mainly due to the many podcasts and your homilies that I've heard on ancient faith radio and through your faith encourage ministries would you mind sharing a little bit about faith and courage ministries and what your current goals are with that ministry yeah thanks so much you know the neat thing about faith courage Ministries is it started out as an accident it really did you know most of us who have converted to the Orthodox faith find that some of our old practices from the Evangelical Protestant world or for from our previous religious experience where the focus was on make sure you have your quiet time every day make sure to have your daily devotionals and things like that and when we when we convert to the Orthodox faith it's kind of a different rhythm we handle Scripture differently not necessarily in in in a negative way my knees stretch the imagination but in a different way we handle Scripture we come to the approach scripture in fact frankly the most rank and file of our Orthodox Christians both life Long's and those who have come to the faith later in their life continue to struggle with what we all struggle with a consistent discipline of handling the Word of God handling the scriptures and so I wanted to stay sharp I wanted to make sure that I that I kept handling the scriptures and our Greek Orthodox Archdiocese and I'm sure the Antiochian archdiocese has the same thing where you have daily readings of the holy scriptures so I just started reading the daily scriptures and jotting down a few notes and then I cinemates hit those notes around those few friends of Mines hey what do you think about this what do you think about that keep me sharp on my preaching skills and so on all that kind of stuff and all of a sudden somebody said you know I'm gonna share this with so-and-so and then pretty soon pretty soon we got folks sharing all this stuff all over the place out like well man we'll be able to do this at the very same time John Maddox approached me about doing a live radio program called faith encourage live and we started that we launched that and I said John what do you think about maybe doing a daily devotional he said it'd be great be wonderful and so faith encouraged daily was born and we've been we send those out every every morning you can get it on ancient faith com or you can sign up at faith encouraged org and have an email to you every morning so that's it basically started as a way from me to want to make sure that I stay connected to handling the Scriptures daily having a scriptural mindset st. John Chrysostom was very plain about this he said that you know you really can't be a follower of Christ if you don't read the scriptures so handling the scriptures and expounding on the scriptures and helping people understand what the scriptures saying that was really what was behind faith encouraged ministries that's a wonderful father and you know what you're saying really resonates with me because it's very similar to how we got things started with the Antiochian men we have an app that we all get together on and we share the saint of the day we share the scripture readings for the day so it's something very similar that that I can really relate to your story father about what led you to the Orthodox Church is a fascinating one I know that before you even became Orthodox an Orthodox priest you had some experience as an evangelical pastor and you even spent some time as a police officer which really fascinated me can you tell us how your experiences as a police officer have helped you to understand the realities of this world in your ministry yeah you know it's III always teach people that you know I started out my in my adult my adult career as a police officer so it's police pastor now priests the next stop is parolee but I'm trying to avoid that it's interesting being a police officer which I love my grandfather was a police officer and he was pretty much the hero of my life my dad was out of my life early on in my life because of divorce very similar story than a lot of guys have where they dad is can sometimes be missing in action it's the reason why if you have a good relationship with your father boy really cherish that that it's so extremely important but my grandfather was really kind of a surrogate father to me in a lot of ways and he was a bit of a hero to me he was a city of Atlanta police officer and had some wonderful stories great stories to tell that he would tell all the grandkids and so when I am turned 21 I entered the police force in Cobb County Georgia and started doing that for a living and went to police academy and all the custom had my sharpshooter badge for the gun range like that and it was it was a wonderful and horrible time it really was it was a time where I really drifted away from the faith I drifted away from my relationship with Christ because I had another religion and that was being a police horse and we used to we used to have a saying in the police department that you you have may you may sleep with your wife but you live with your partner and that Brotherhood of the badge was very close and it fulfilled interestingly enough it fulfilled a need that I had for close male relationships friendships Brotherhood of the badge the thin blue line that whole nine yards a feeling of accomplishment a feeling of purpose its hunger that every man I would even press it so far to say every man is absolutely desperate for and at the same time terrified of so-called human you're gonna repeat you're gonna reveal yourself you're gonna fight people are gonna find out who you really are and and that's a scary thing but but the police work was was wonderful it it prepared me for the concept of camaraderie now in the priesthood of my brother priests that we we have each other's back we become close friends but it also helped me a great deal in learning the absolute indisputable value of friends close mail relationships that are friends this society nowadays is become so overly sexualized that men are absolutely terrified of having close male friends or being accused of having same-sex attraction or all that kind of stuff and because of that let me put it this way because of that societal madness that is a reality nowadays men are lonelier than they've ever been before and because of that it affects their marriages it affects their relationship with their children it affects our relationship with God because their concept of father is is challenged the concept of intimacy is challenged and and wort it isn't Christianized it isn't it isn't what I told one guy the other day I said your your idea of male male talk was it masculinity needs to be Orthodox sized bro the police work really helped me with that and kind of press through just the value of friends and close male relationship does that make sense it makes perfect sense and you're speaking to the core of what the Antiochian men is an organization is all about and we're a brotherhood of men that are helping each other to become more like God and that Brotherhood aspect is so important the camaraderie that you talked about I've talked to men that have served in the military that described a very similar for other hood environments it's so important to get you through you know your daily struggles so that's that's that makes perfect sense it's really a wonderful response and let me add let me add one other thing the reason for this is I always try to tie things to the theology because the problem is most people divorce the especially Orthodox theology is so esoteric it's so cosmic it's so beautiful it's so out of this world it's so petty it's so wonderful it's so mystical that it's very easy to think that it's not practical and that is never true right the Orthodox Christian for the Orthodox Christian Way of life is an eminently practical daily reality and the reason why is because of our theology the Holy Trinity I can't know myself by myself okay because God knows himself as persons in communion Father Son and Holy Spirit before he said let there be light or created one thing God knows himself as persons in communion and that's how I'm going to know myself in fact it's indispensable you will be confused about yourself outside of community it's just not possible yes that's so well said father and father you often encourage people to be Orthodox on purpose I've heard you say that many times can you talk a little bit about what that phrase really means and why it's such an important concept it's interesting first I remember the first time I even said it I had a precious lifelong Orthodox friend that was with me and he said I feel insulted and so he was kind of explaining that that was that was really stark and hit him really hard that what do you mean I'm worth about to my accident I said I don't know are you are you worth about to my accident one of the things that I do when I when I was speaking in different places around the country I would ask people if you hadn't been born into an Orthodox home you lucky lucky folks it's blessed folks yes if you hadn't been born in Orthodox women would you've converted orthodoxy why are you Orthodox is it a is it a habit and listen don't get me wrong good habits please God help me develop more good habits I'm good sure but it's got to go beyond that especially nowadays when we live in a culture that is antithetical and actually I'm resistant and and hostile to our Orthodox mindset in our Orthodox way of life our Orthodox we have understanding what it needs to be a person and because of that we have to we to answer the why question why am i worth a house and the pressing that out means that I come to grips with normal orthodoxy and the way I defined that is normal orthodoxy is how an Orthodox person would live every day set up the priorities make their choices decide how they're going to spend their money how they die spend their time how they're gonna raise their kids how they going to be married how they're going to use whatever gifts that God has given them every day an Orthodox person is going to live a purposeful focused and attentive there's the key word right there attentive life awake to what it means to be called to become the companion of God and and it's never going to happen by accident they're going to have my accent I have to stay awake it's the reason why the fathers are constantly encouraging us to be attentive them the Divine Liturgy khajit let us be attentive because without attentiveness awakeness nowadays everybody's talking about being woke I wonder about that sometimes not really we've been saying it you know we were saying being woke before woke was cool but the reality is being attentive being awake paying attention having that having those moments throughout the day when you can be reordered one of the things that I love about the daily devotional is that it gives you five minutes it just simply reorient your day and say okay I'm gonna be attentive I'm gonna be awake to the fact that there's that God loves me Jesus Christ is my Savior and I'm going to choose today to act that way so when I say Orthodox on purpose that's what I mean that's wonderful and you know I learned a great Greek word listening to one of your podcasts and nipsey's and that word it's it's exactly what you're describing it's that wakefulness or that watchfulness yeah and it's it's just wonderful hearing you talk about being Orthodox on purpose it's something I need to hear I've been Orthodox my whole life and I know do I know how important it is to be to have nipsey's to be away so it's so wonderfully said a father you know you're already aware that I'm the president of the Antiochian men I have spoken to you before this interview and it's a men's ministry in the Antiochian Archdiocese of North America in the Diocese of Miami in the southeast I know you're a priest in the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese but you're in the southeast so we already have quite a bit in common we know a lot about the Orthodox world I'm sure you would agree and I've already heard you talk about in this interview just the extraordinary challenges that men are facing especially in this country Orthodox Christians that are men with all the many distractions the responsibilities that men feel the pressures and even the confusion that exists in society today and you touched on that it's often difficult for men to really live the faith and I was hoping you could give us some advice on what men who feel that they're just being crushed under the weight of it all can do well it's it's such an important topic Jesus said something interesting in the Gospels he said that he is the rock and people are either going to fall on this rock and be broken or this rock is gonna fall on them and they're gonna be ground to powder so if we're wise enough to come to Christ now and focus our life on Jesus Christ now he does make no mistake of making a mistake about it the Orthodox Christian life is about Jesus Christ Jesus Christ is the center of everything we do Jesus Christ is why we're Orthodox it is about Jesus Christ Jesus Christ is the photos I was telling that someone today they were saying father I have such a hard time there convert to the faith and they have a hard time in prayers I said let me ask you a question are you shutting your eyes I'm shutting my eyes I said for heaven's sake honey when you're praying don't shut your eyes look at Jesus look at Jesus focus on Christ and so when I hear that that men are feeling like they're being they're being crushed part of me wants to M race the positive side of that good because if you're broken it's one of the reasons why the fathers tell us to thank God for our enemies because our enemies will tell us something about ourselves that our friends never will and I thank God for my enemies if it weren't in fact I remember telling a man who was extremely belligerent to me in the pair she didn't like me at all called me but I first and my my my previous name before I was or day wouldn't call me Father Barnabas he didn't call me a previous name and just really didn't like me at all and and I told my said brother I want to thank you what do you mean said if it weren't for you I would have never prayed as much as I as I pray I would have never turned to God as much as I turn to God and many times the mistake we make is we want to escape the breaking we want a mistake we want we want to escape from the pain that makes perfect sense that's not weird you're not strange of course you want to avoid pain you're not an idiot but at the same time the reality is I need to be broken mm-hmm I need to come to the end of myself and especially we men because we're the saviors of the universe I had to tell my wife years ago she and because I told her I said now listen when you when you say I wish I hear you must because it's this my wife wants something right I want something my kids want something I gotta fix it it's got to do it and many times one of the things that men have to come to is an end to themselves they need to find that spot where they're broken so I think there's two approaches the first one is the path of humility always leads to salvation period full stop into discussion the path to me Tanya or repentance saying Isaac in Syria said said it best this life was given D repent for repentance do not waste it on vain pursuits don't waste your life on anything less than a lifestyle of metalia a lifestyle of repentance and repentance takes humility repentance takes an honesty a sober honesty it says I've come to the end to myself the my schedule is breaking me I'm working too many hours I mean I'm a workaholic I'm an alcoholic I'm hooked I'm medicating my pain with video games or spending too much time on the internet or whatever the the addiction might be I've got to be broken I've got to come to the end of myself and society especially today's society with their idea they're toxic foolish a maddening misunderstanding of masculinity yeah with with that kind of of lost mind that kind of delusion in modern society where a man can't be a man he's not supposed to be a man supposed to be I think you look more like me I'm a man and that's a good thing it's not a bad thing like it's a gift yeah but because of that insanity that we live it forces us so what do you say you say to society thank you thank you for making me wake up to the reality your madness your delusion has become gift to me how grateful to God I am that I'm facing this brokenness does that make sense at all yeah and I can even relate to that because I know there's so so much of a temptation to want to escape from all those different just pressures that we have as men it's happened in my past where I was looking for other things that were not godly to just get away from that and I'm overweight because of that right yeah I can relate to that too I'm just saying I'm because of inattentiveness yeah because of wanting to medicate my fear or medicate my pain or medicate my boredom it's a struggle that I have yeah it's a struggle that I have but the key is that that brokenness is gift this is what undoes every attack of the evil one against us hmm it doesn't make the attack any less painful doesn't make the attack any less discomforting or any less inconvenient or any less terrifying Frank right but what it does do is it makes the tact the attack of the evil one impotent to keep me from Christ and if I go to Christ with my brokenness guess what he does just like the Good Samaritan He pours in oil and wine he binds up my wounds and he takes me to the end which is the church so that I can convalesce brothers you want to be healed go to church that's our Hospital exactly father Barnabas in the Antiochian men we're also very focused on the importance of mentorship in the church many young today young men today you mentioned this earlier as well many young men were raised in households that have been broken by divorce many are raised by a single mother or in a family where the father is absent or just uninvolved that the father may be checked out I'm sure you'd agree that fatherhood is a very important part of authentic manhood and it's not just being a biological father men can be a spiritual father over even a mentor to another man it's a very important role and related to that father ship roll can you share any wisdom with the men that are watching this video about the importance of fatherhood and mentorship within the context of our church communities well again it goes back to the theology the the this creation was created by a father the father and there's really only one father all other fatherhood is an icon of his fatherhood right and that's that's the but if I don't know that icon if I don't see that icon if I don't focus on the dike if I don't learn from that icon then I'm going to be early on in my in my own in my own maturity whether I think as I struggle with this because I really didn't have a good relationship with my father how do you be a father and it was through friendships with some older men my grandfather my interesting enough my old Pentecostal pastor who was a real was a real spiritual father to me and when I was a Pentecostal - three even pastoring for the gospel church brother holder was was there all the time in fact when my mother and father divorced when I was nine years old they had stopped going to church and brother holder came and picked me up for church every Sunday and to bring me to church and keep me connected to faith so there's it's indispensable yeah but at the same time you got to understand that you're gonna mess up your your you're not going to be a perfect father you're not and so confess that brokenness is not weakness and I think many times we men were terrified of weakness we get really freaked out about weakness and that's gonna make you that's that's gonna make you a bad father if you can't embrace your brokenness you can't embrace your weakness you can't say I'm sorry you can't you can't find a regular time to spend your time in confession with your spiritual father absolutely essential to have that kind of spiritual medicine applied to your life so that you can stay awake at your own brokenness and your own tendencies towards addiction or tendencies towards toward self-centeredness because if you're gonna be a good father you can't be self-centered you got to give yourself away and you've got to be prepared you got to be prepared for it - for people not being as grateful as you want them to be um it's just suck it up buttercup its how'd it happen it just is we're not gonna be as grateful as you want to be so if you're doing it to get people to think you're a wonderful man swing-and-a-miss yeah it's got to be motivated by a selflessness that says I'm willing to give my life away the Apostle Paul said I am ready to spend and be spent for the gospel of Jesus Christ and that's fatherhood yeah yeah no that's that's such a good response as well you know another role that men have within their own families father is being the priest of their household when I was younger I didn't quite understand what that meant when I was a child I found that though having self-discipline and and you mentioned this again earlier as well being sober minded for me personally it's critical to be able to function effectively as the priest of my family can you give us any tips on some practical things we can do to improved as the priests of our households yeah I love this story with st. Pius he had a mother come to him about her son her son just wouldn't do like he's supposed to do and she said I'm constantly on him I'm constantly fussing at him I'm constantly correcting him and and st. Pius Joe said dear don't do that everything you want to say to your son say to God first and let God tell your son hey and I don't know if that's gonna work for everybody but the reality is it's extremely important for us to understand that one of the main ways in fact I tell people in our in our community all the time the greatest youth program we have in our church is a robust demanding and consuming adult Christian education program mm-hmm so men if you want to be want to be good fathers who's gonna be the priest of your home huh learn what it means to be a priest yeah and I do the work necessary to for a regular prayer and the neat thing about the Orthodox Christian Way of life is we do our theology through liturgy that's how we do the I tell people all the time if you want to learn what orthodoxy believes about something don't get a system at theology book get a hymnbook because we tell you everything we believe in our chance in our prayers everything we lay it all out there but what we believe about Mary what we believe about Christ what we bill about God how do you believe about each other everything shows up in the prayers one of the things that I tell my men is men if you want to be good fathers make it to or throws every Sunday morning that's the prayer service before the Divine Liturgy go to orthros for a year and you'll have a master's degree in theology yeah so that's the the practical thing is know your faith it's not going to happen by accident snot going to happen by osmosis let your kids see you standing in for the icons even if you're not leading them in prayer when they walk down the hall or they see you now and again make sure they see you standing in front of the icons and making your cross Lord bless my family be an icon of Jesus Christ to your wife and kids that's hard and anybody tells you it isn't hard trying to sell you something so be careful just say but it is difficult but if the practical thing is the daily practice of the faith go to church make church a priority miss other things and tell the other people that the number-one reason why there's church attendance decline in the United States is young people sports teenage sports programs number one reason and so let the folks know we just had this with with my oldest daughter she's going she's going to a church event and her dance company has got something going on we miss things for church we don't miss church for things yeah yeah that's a very important message and it's great advice to all of us who are looking for ways we can be that that priest of our household and really to set the tone to to live the faith on a daily basis not just on Sundays so that's great a father I'm a big fan of your faith encouraged daily podcasts on ancient faith that you mentioned earlier one of your most recent ones was on New Year's Eve and it was called endings and beginnings in that podcast you said and I'm going to quote you here are DOX faith embraces the fundamental wisdom that keeping at the end of all things in mind is the only way that I'm going to live well in this moment today and the reason for that is if we don't know how things end we will never know the very purpose of our lives I love that quote can you expand on this and talk about how having an eternal perspective can help us live a more purposeful Orthodox Christian life yeah when I was when I was in my undergraduate work at a Protestant Christian school I had a professor who wrote on one of my papers he said dear mr. Powell you remind me of a German theologian why use two words when twelve would do just and I'm thinking about that quote that you quoted I'm thinking to myself lord have mercy that's a lot of words and and then of course the Saints do it much better keep your mind in hell and don't despair in other words remember your death remember that there's going to come a time and we pray it every and every Divine Liturgy for a good answer for the awesome judgement seat of Christ let's pray to the Lord Christian ending your life payments blameless and without suffering and so keeping that in mind keeps us with an eternal perspective so that we don't get bogged down in the temporary stuff that is so that so easily intoxicates us you know intoxication would worry it in toxic AIT's us with with elation at times most of us spend most of our time between two ends I'm either reacting to what I'm afraid of or what I'm hoping for and we spend our we spend most of our times living our lives and making our choices based on those two realities and neither one of those realities are real they're not what I'm afraid of never usually happens and hoping for yes when we're the one to win the lottery if I win the lottery I promise father I'll build the church million times they're fantasy worlds and the enemy keeps us on those two places to keep us gripped by delusion the Orthodox faith calls me to reality it caused me to be awake and if I'm awake then I am then the temporary things in my life have the perspective of the eternal not the other way yeah that's that's wonderful so as you were talking I was thinking about how in our culture today we seem to want a quarantined death and to put it in this box where we don't have to think about it we don't have to see it we don't have to remember that one day we too are going to die and how do we want to finish the race right and what do we say we go to fill your Oh doesn't he look good but we escape the delusion this is not something we want to think about and consequently because we're gripped by that we live our lives based on the fear of death rather than the reality that we're going to live forever with Christ right well father I've also heard that you're going to be speaking at a conference for Orthodox men later this year the conference that I've heard is it's actually called fighting the good fight which is a great title and it takes place at the Antiochian village in Boulevard Pennsylvania on August 20th through the 23rd of 2020 this year I've never heard of a conference for Orthodox men only and I'm just very interested to learn more what can you tell us about this event well I'm blessed to be one of four speakers father Evan Armitage who is gang if you don't know father I have an Armin to us you gotta get to doing right now he's absolutely fantastic wonderful parish priest out in the in the West father Andrew Steve endemic and many of many of you guys know father Andrew I'm sure very well and father Steven Freeman who is in my opinion one of the best writers in English in the world today absolutely fantastic and they threw me in for comic relief but but it's going to be about this very thing that you and I've been talking about and what army men are really struggling with how do we fight well because we're gonna fight that's just the reality this is a warm in this is a war and it's a war internally how do you fight that fight well my own topic is going to be how to tame the passions and how to how to live a sober life not just sober from all addictions to physical physical intoxicants like drugs and alcohol things like those are just there the merest of symptoms of an internal spiritual addiction that needs to be healed and we're going to talk about that we're going to talk about the basic disciplines of the faith that are the medicines that set us free from these addictions so that's going to be coming up in August it's specifically to address one of these real challenges that we men have and that's the ability to have close male friendships and male bonding that is both healthy and christ-like and that helps us know ourselves that sounds like it's gonna be a great event and registration is open now by the way so that's great well we'll go ahead and put up that registration link in the description of this video as well father Barnabas could you also tell us about the journey to fullness initiative that's happening within your faith encouraged ministries oh yeah I did it this is one of them you know I'm a busy guy and and and I'm busy most of the time self-imposed so don't feel bad for me but and one of the things that I did want to add about the the conference is this is the only speaking engagement that I have accepted this this year we have run into some challenges for with my health and I wanted to make sure that I can address so I've cut out all of my travel and speaking engagements around the country and and in Europe I stopped I stopped it I'm going to stop it for this year next year but I am going to be doing this conference at the Antioch in village so I'm looking forward to that but one of the things we did years ago people kept asking us how is it we're seventy percent convert parish in Georgia and most of the people that are in our congregation have never gone to another one that I've searched they've never done an Orthodox priest besides myself because we we brought them to the Orthodox faith we average anywhere between fifteen and twenty new families every year converting to the Orthodox faith every year and we did that because we had a we we did something after our food festival a year where we focus on evangelism an outreach during our festivals that's the what that's why we do a festival is evangelism that's the only reason to do a festival Fest was a worse fundraiser that's ever been created in the history of the human race it never ever ever raises enough money to warrant all the work we do all right buddy Fanjul ISM does yeah evangelism and reaching out to people and offering them the faith that's a motivation to keep doing the festival so that's why we do a festival and we had this intro to orthodoxy class that a lot of my priest friend said why don't you I want to do that and so we did a 16 part video series called a journey to fullness I think you see it over my shoulder here that's what it looks like you can get it at ancient faith calm at the store at ancient faith it's a 16 videos 20 minutes each where we introduce orthodoxy for the average person most of the time and and what I've discovered is is that when people are exposed to normal Orthodox when they're exposed to the timeless wisdom of the Orthodox faith they're immediately drawn to it there's something inside of them it says many of that's what I mean and it's it's imperative on us it is the command of Jesus Christ that we make disciples period full stop end of discussion men if you want a good purpose in your life be a leader in your community in reaching out to your community to share the faith healthy communities reproduce and if the community isn't reproducing it isn't healthy healthy communities grow their own leaders if your community isn't reproducing leadership in the young man and the young women that are coming up in your community you're not doing it right yeah healthy communities grow that's normal and if we're not experiencing that then we have to do the Diagnostics to get a hold of this and one of the tools over 200 parishes are over 300 parishes now are using this program to introduce people to the Orthodox way people who marry into the church that aren't Orthodox that's come to Norman the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese yeah over 80% of the marriages that we do in the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese are between an Orthodox Christian and a non Orthodox Christian right in Florida it's above 90 percent so that's that's the reality that we have to work with let's make these let's make these spouses give them an opportunity to converge for heaven's sake so that's been a real joy for me to have this program available you can get that through ancient faith dot-com and look up a journey to fullness and you can get sounds great father Barnabas on behalf of all the Antiochian men I want to thank you very much for your time today I know you have a very busy schedule and it's been a true honor and a blessing to speak with you today yeah forgive me for my long wind in this I'm a preacher so oh well and man god bless you good strength to you stay focused on Jesus Christ
