At the heart of the Orthodox spiritual life is the Jesus Prayer. However, despite it's popularization through books like The Way of the Pilgrim, the Jesus Prayer remains unknown to many Christians in the West. In this video, Orthodox convert and writer Frederica Mathewes-Green shares what the Jesus Prayer is, where the Jesus Prayer comes from, and how you can incorporate the Jesus Prayer into your life in such a way that it transforms your relationship with God, leading to the prayer of the heart.

About Gospel Simplicity:
Gospel Simplicity began as a TH-cam channel in a Moody Bible Institute dorm. It was born out of the central conviction that the gospel is really good news, and I wanted to share that with as many people as possible. The channel has grown and changed over time, but that central conviction has never changed. Today, we make content around biblical and theological topics, often interacting with people from across the Christian tradition with the hope of seeking greater unity and introducing people to the beautiful simplicity and transformative power of the gospel, the good news about Jesus.
About the host:
Hey! My name is Austin, and I'm a 22 year old guy who’s passionate about the beautiful simplicity and transformative power of the gospel. I believe that the gospel, the good news about Jesus, is really good news, and I’m out to explore, unpack, and share that good news with as many people as possible. I'm a full blown Bible and Church History nerd that loves getting to dialogue with others about this, learning as much as I can, and then teaching whatever I can. I grew up around Frederick, MD where I eventually ended up working my first job at a church. They made the mistake of letting me try my hand at teaching, and instantly I fell in love. That set me on a path for further education, and I'm currently a student at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, IL, studying theology. On any given day you can find me with my nose in a book or a guitar in my hands. Want to get to know me more? Follow me and say hi on Instagram at: @austin.suggs

Orthodoxy has everything that appeals to healthy men: a King to follow, a war to wage (spiritually), a male hierarchy that depends on rank and order, an elaborate history, an underlying philosophy / theology that one can study for a lifetime without ever fully grasping, and most all...it has the Truth ☦️
Thanks for these reflections!
It tickles a male vanity?
I find it very difficult that you describe it as for "healthy" men, as if others were insane.
I wouldn't go that far with the war and the hierarchy. It has the same claim to universality as Catholic Christianity, so its not particularly warlike, and when it comes to hierarchy, high clergymen can and do express their own interpretations, in accordance with the Holy Tradition of course. It is not as much of a monolythic, army-like system of belief as it might appear from the outside.
@@hei7586 How waging war is vain?
@@johnlove2954 Pride of your own power, showing off with being without fear or weekness, feeling strong and omnipotent in a group, diminishing your adversary ...
The Jesus Prayer brought me into Orthodoxy and saved me. 🙏☦️
Wow! Praise God
@@GospelSimplicity Father Peter Gillquist, whom she mentioned, edited my mother-in-law's (Latayne C. Scott) first book, "The Mormon Mirage." She was leaving Mormonism as he was entering into the Orthodox Church. She still attends a Restoration Movement church of Christ, but is very ecumenical, if you're interested in interviewing her let me know and I'll see if I can help arrange it.
Me too brother, me too!
For the first time in my Christian walk, I am now looking forward to prayer. Thank you so much Austin! I was an Evangelical and had heated debates with my orthodox roommate for a year before your interview with Fr. Seraphim Aldea changed my heart and my mind followed some time after. I could see by his conduct that what he was doing was working and that what I was doing was not. I've been attending Divine Liturgy since Christmas.
I'm glad to hear that!
Glory to God 🙏
Look up the video Lives of Saints - St Anthony the Great. That video helped me with my prayer journey. I love St Anthony's story.
Great Orthodox representation on here. Frederica Mathews-Green was one of the first Orthodox teachers I became familiar with in my journey into Orthodoxy.
Thanks!
Likewise. Her article about things to expect for your first liturgy was indispensable for me.
Demons run in fear when the Jesus prayer is spoken!
The Jesus prayer heals, restores and breaks walls and chains.
“Saying the Jesus prayer will teach you how to say the Jesus prayer” so simple, but so true.
Please, please do Jonathan Pageau. He has a lot of unique insights and is Orthodox thinker as well
Working on it!
I look forward to that interview
@@offensivesaint9848 I strongly second that opinion!
Great idea....his artwork and icons are so beautiful. X
The Jesus prayer works! I am an Orthodox convert, 10 years.
Just getting started then! 😀 Glory to God!
She has a wonderfully calm and gentle spirit - much like yourself Austin. I’m sure you two will hit it off right away.
It was a blast!
Thinking the same thing, Craig!
Accidental asmr video 😂
The gentleness and humility of Christ is evident in both of you. Thank you for this video.
Thank you so much! God bless
Ukrainian Greek-catholic here, who is praying the Jesus prayer regularly.
I love Frederica. She has such a warm, calm, peaceful personality. I mean this as a compliment-as she talks, I can easily see myself as one of her grandchildren, tucked snuggly into bed, falling asleep as she reads bedtime stories. ☺
Haha, well said!
I love it!
BTW grandchild # 15 is on the way.
Austin! You are getting to talk with the *best* people. Khouria Fredericka?! How exciting! God must have wonderful plans for your work in the world, He has really opened some doors. 😇
I am very blessed to have these conversations
She is a national treasure
She's wonderful
I start prayer from 0(zero)…a became small...small...then..I came to Christ...and hug Him...Lord Jesus' Christ have mercy on me....this is Jesus prayer
looking forward to this, the Jesus Prayer is so powerful and something every Christian should practice.
Glad to hear that! Hope you enjoy it!
@@GospelSimplicity thanks Austin
Oh I love her, her book Welcome to the Orthodox Church is amazing
I’ll have to read that
Yes! Fantastic book
This was fabulous. Thank you. You're a great interviewer, and she is a delight.
Why isn't everyone talking about the mistranslation of energy from the Greek to the Latin??? This is huge! Faith without energy is dead! This changes everything.
Woohoo!!! You are knocking it out of the park with your Orthodox guests! I love me some Frederica Mathews-Green!!! She is such a great writer and speaker. Looking forward to this tremendously!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks!
Jesus prayer has warmed countless of souls seeking inner peace and power with an unceasing prayer, finding joy and plenty everywhere in life.
Jesus prayer is a spiral of energy which coils before popping up! In such a prayer, the mental focus is coiled with humility and readiness to strike anything that harms, while the inner core of our being is given to Whom is the Perfect and Absolute Love. Unexpectedly, an explosion of blessings blossoms in the heart... The rest is indescribable.
A classic work about this prayer is "The Way of a Pilgrim".
Indeed. I actually bring that book up in the interview!
@@GospelSimplicity It is an incredibly excellent interview. Thank you, Austin!
What an interesting image! "a spiral of energy, coiled and ready to strike." I really like that.
Thank you so much, Frederica.
Your words are always overwhelmingly inspirational. Keep spreading kindness and love.
May God's Love be, always, your Life!
The Jesus prayer is an excellent topic. It is fundamental to orthodox life and theology. You can't be a saint without it. From it proceeds spiritual gifts. This looks like it's going to be an excellent video.
I certainly enjoyed it!
@@GospelSimplicity any spoilers? Have to keep the hype up lol
Pray for my freedom and what's best for the Lord to be glorified in my healing
I have a strong feeling this realization will be life changing for many!! Myself included!
Thank you!
Hi Austin, you should also check her book "The illumined Heart". You are just a blessing to us all. God's grace and mercy to you.
Sounds amazing ! I must look it up! Not the Illuminati heart ?
Thanks!
@@WildStyleStayWild no, The illumined heart is a Christian who has been baptized.
@@MrWesford It comes from the Orthodox prayer before reading the Gospel that starts, "Illumine our hearts, O Lover of Mankind...'
The Jesus Prayer changed my life! I found this little gem of a prayer in a very unusual way and I feel like it was the grace of the Holy Spirit. I found the tradition of this prayer in Roman Catholicism only when I went looking for it. Everything I learned about it is from pre-Vatican 2 sources. I built my prayer life around it. I’m so glad to be here for this interview.
Glad to hear that!
Read father Sullivan book named "Wonders of Holy Name" it talks about this prayer in catholicism... Blessings!
I wonder how can this prayer be accepted by the Roman Catholicism as some consequences of using it are not theological compatible with Catholicism.
In The Benedictine Order's a lot of monks recite this Prayer
@@sfappetrupavelandrei how is this not compatible with catholicism
Wow! This woman is amazing. How come I found about her so late? Props to Gospel Simplicity to bring her on his channel!
She is indeed!
I’m an Orthodox myself but it kind of irritates me to see people placing their faith above all the other Christian faiths. There was a time when I was very ignorant of other Christian faiths, but after getting deeper into my faith I had the chance to get acquainted with other Christian faiths and I found a lot of wisdom and riches in the teachings and traditions of these churches and I found them very appealing.
For God’s sake we all worship the same God. Let’s not differentiate ourselves under God’s name.
I used to be quite intolerant against the Protestant church bc I attended a Protestant school in my youth and I didn’t have good memories from that school, but as I’ve been reading conversion stories of people who were converted through divine interventions or revelations, I began to see that God was leading different people to different churches and denominations, and I understood that God does not look at us differently. “His thoughts are not our thoughts and His ways are not our ways”.
Let’s love each other; that will make Jesus very happy.
What ever you say us haretic 100%.The one God jesus established one church, church is one and only one. God leads people into His faith and to His church, not to fake churchies, that is impossible.
Well said. As another cradle Orthodox, I also dislike and am saddened by the bigotry that still finds such a comfortable home in our churches. It's the fruit and expression of spiritual pride, and nothing else than that. Christ himself told us that he is present wherever two or three are gathered together in his name. Agapē.
Thank you both so much for this edifying video! Frederica Mathewes-Green's introduction to Orthodoxy on the Theoria channel was my first real interaction with Orthodox practice and theology, before I ever stepped foot in an Orthodox church. As a female convert to Orthodoxy, I can attest to the overwhelming maleness of the catechumenate; there is only one other girl my age at my parish, compared to the dozen-plus college-age guys interested in the Church! I'm very much looking forward to Khouria Frederica's book on the gender gap in Orthodox conversions.
I was also particularly struck by her discussion on the overemphasis on emotional experiences of God (20:25). Having been raised in a Pentecostal-adjacent Christian community, and in college joining a female-dominated evangelical community, the pressure to have intensely emotional encounters with the Lord was ever-present (though rarely articulated). Khouria Frederica's division of the mind into reason and reception was enlightening; I have always known God through reason, but until Orthodoxy, never by reception, because the "marketing" she speaks of did not resonate with me. Ironically, it was by reception that I was first convinced of Orthodoxy! Reason came much later, and the Lord is still working it out in me-or should I say, *energizing* me! :)
Once again, this was an absolute joy of a video. So much wisdom in so little time. Thank you both! Lord have mercy ❤️☦️
I'm so glad you enjoyed this! Thanks for sharing some of your story as well!
Yes, I watched the concise, informative “welcome to Orthodox Church” videos on Theoria channel too and found them super helpful in my journey to Orthodoxy. I must say, part of the “welcome” was Frederica herself as she has such a warm, inviting personality. I would highly recommend these videos to everyone checking out Orthodoxy.
That was very much my experience as well! I like to say I reasoned my way into Orthodoxy and now I'm having to learn to set it aside sometimes. The guys are fun, but it's nice to know there are other girls out there! I think females would be more interested in Orthodoxy if they give it a good chance. There's so much to love!
This is one I am very much looking forward to. We are catechumens in the ROCOR and one of the things I find challenging is learning the fasting schedule and keeping an Orthodox home. Thank you Austin for having Khouria Mathews-Green on to interview. 🙏
My pleasure! Hope you enjoy it!
Yesterday afternoon I dropped my wife off for a medical appointment, and while I was waiting, I sat with my prayer rope in a country churchyard and prayed. After a while, I noticed a red squirrel, as it moved around not far from me. I was fascinated, but then suddenly realised I had just uttered the prayer "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a squirrel"
That's amazing
😂 that's funny and still Jesus loves all of his creations
Frederica Mathewes-Green is great. Her book Welcome To The Orthodox Church is an excellent introductory book for anybody with a hint of curiosity about Holy Orthodoxy, especially for those from a Protestant background, it has some really good points particularly with regard to repentance.
I'll have to check it out!
Yes. Go to Vespers at an Orthodox Church it is Life changing! The colours, ambience and chants Bring The Kingdom to Earth!! I'm Roman Catholic but considering Orthodox convert. Jesus prayer is so Powerful. I recite aloud and then whisper and silent it can bring you so Deep 🙏 And yes, she is a lovely person a great ambassador for Orthodoxy
Have you thought to have Hank Hanegraaff on the show?
He was led to orthodoxy somewhat through Fredricka Green if I’m not mistaken and would be a fantastic guest
Hank would be a wonderful guest for Austin to interview
I was just talking with a friend about that over dinner! Yes, I'd love to have him on
@@GospelSimplicity Hank's son Dave Hanegraaff is also a great person to interview. He and his wife and baby will be chrismated into the Orthodox Church in May.
The utter sweetness of this moved me to tears. The presence of Jesus Christ is the most beautiful, satisfying, life-giving thing that has ever been.
Precious Lord Jesus, Show me your loving kindness
Thank you, Austin, for this! Presbytera Frederica is so lovely and gentle, full of love.
Couldn't agree more!
Wow! Another Orthodox guest! I don't know much about her, but I am looking forward to it nonetheless
She’s wonderful
When you keep checking up on this video and it's still 16 days away...
I have tuned in for 30 seconds and I’m already captivated, this is awesome - I never knew where to start with the essence-energies distinction of Eastern theology.
Glad to hear that!
I just finished the book on that topic that Jay Dyer recommended during his interview with Austin, “The Deification Of Man.” It is excellent and I highly recommend it!
Thank you once again! You're doing a great job talking to all these Orthodox people. Frederica was so nice! She is calm and happy and has a beautiful smile.
My pleasure!
Two prayers which are not same but similar to Jesus Prayer: "Lord Jesus Christ help me" and the prayer of St. Gr. Palamas "Lord, give light to my darkness".
I would add to this title of the beautiful interview that the center Of Orthodox faith and the biggest joy of an Orthodox Christian is Christ' s Resurrection together with and our personal resurrection in our lives! Cross is the path to reach there. If I didn' t say it well, forgive me.
My best wishes for your engagement!
Thanks!
Bawling by the end 💕☦️💕 God bless Christ and His Holy Church! And God bless you both on your journey.
Glad it was so impactful for you!
I am Catholic but an Orthodox Priest gave me my first Prayer Rope. I have used the Jesus Prayer ever since that time.
The Jesus prayer : Lord Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
I am Catholic but I always pray this.
A Catholic priest Father Mark Goring taught us the Jesus prayer.
I respect Orthodoxy too.
Austin, you have a gift for interviewing such interesting people and actually letting them speak. Wonderful work here. Thank you and God bless your work here. 🙏
Thanks!
Her intro to orthodoxy book is a must read for anyone considering
I'm so excited! I met her many many years ago.
I am Roman Catholic but very interested in orthodoxy.where I live there are no orthodox churches .anywhere near.i do go online and listen to talks , services etc it is very beautiful.thank you
Excellent presentation. The Jesus Prayer is Gospel Simplicity.
Well said!
Can't wait for this one! Thank you sooo so much for having her on, Austin! Of course, along with other Orthodox and non-Orthodox guests as well. Your interviewing skills, willingness to learn and humility are amazing, keep up the great work! Btw, this will premiere on my husband's birthday, what a treat :)
I must also add... being "cradle Orthodox" isn't always what it seems to other denominations or converts. Mrs Frederica has taught me so much and at the same time put me to shame as a cradle Orthodox who decided to go back to the Church and learn everything properly. She's truly great and so is her husband.
Christ is in our midst!
Thanks so much for the kind words! Happy early birthday to your husband!
So grateful for this country (US). I am also a cradle- orthodox, but because of many years of communism persecutions and suppression of the Orthodox Church, most of us in the Orthodox countries only know that we have the true faith but have no idea why and where in the Bible says that. But because of the western converts who are so thirsty to find the truth and by Gods grace they explain our faith so well, we cradle orthodox become converts to our own faith!
Glory be to God!
PS. Austin, thank you for these wonderful interviews! May God continue to guide you, keep you, and grant you many years 🙏🙏🙏
I am a cradle orthodox and love listening to Pres Frederica and reading her books - so approachable - thank you for this
This was a wonderful episode. She has such a beautiful spirit.
She really does
As a Catholic I really appreciate the East and their spirituality. It inspires me a lot, God Bless this woman
Glad to hear that!
Thank you so much for this little treasure! I am a convert of 10 plus years, but still feel like a new babe to the faith… I am on the JP band wagon, then I fall off! My priest just suggested to me to begin again. This must have been destiny I watched this video. 🙏☦️
What attracts us, men, to Orthodoxy is that is virile, vibrant, there is a strong masculine energy about everything in Orthodoxy. No sentimentality and no rationalism. Simply living Christ life in a strong, corageous and energetic way.
This is going to be good!
Super fun interview!
It's amazing to me to find this prayer, because it feels so natural. "Lord have mercy" is how I've instinctively prayed for a long time, maybe just because it's what stuck with me from Catholic mass I used to attend.
I feel that way about so much in Orthodoxy, that it's just right, I don't have to be convinced.
This is awesome! Two of my favorite teachers who have each in different ways contributed to my journey into Orthodoxy. Thank you Frederica and Austin!
Wow! It's my pleasure!
Glory be to God for all things!
Pentecostals would describe it in the same way as far as the opening of the mind and heart to perceive His presence in prayer. Very good
I normally refrain from commenting, but I absolutely loved this interview. As a Catholic, I’ve always wanted to pray the Jesus prayer but was worried I was doing it wrong. This interview cleared up a lot for me.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for taking the time to comment!
I adore her to bits!!!!! She such beautiful G-d touch woman this will be great!
I am not Catholic but,I love the Jesus prayer.
Such a beautiful interview. Calm, deep and full of love. God bless you both.
Glad you enjoyed it! God bless you too
Amazing! I am always so happy to listen to her. She is great!~ Glory to God!
She is!
can i just say that i have NEVER heard a more soothing voice than this beautiful lady's!
She’s a beautiful person.
I agree, she is lovely and gentle.
I've heard good things about her but have never read her work. Thanks for the opportunity Austin!
My pleasure!
for my husband, it's the reverence, tradition, and unchangingness of the orthodox church of why he's drawn in. doesn't keep with trends and trying to be a concert or something. he grew up evangelical.
Thanks for sharing that!
It’s interesting hearing it discussed in English. Not being a native English speaker i never had this perception of it. Lord have mercy in English might sound odd. In my native language’mercy’ is a noun as well, but the prayer is different and in the prayer ‘mercy’ is a verb. In the usual language one (a person) can have mercy, but only the Lord is mecying. The prayer would be more like ‘Lord mercy me the sinner’ . Only in this context ‘mercy ‘ is a verb, and it doesn’t necessarily mean mercy, but rather encompasses : show me the path/ save me/ help me/ protect me and much more and mainly because nobody else can mercy, we can have mercy but not mercy. I hope it makes sense. It’s a transitive verb grammatically has a direct impact so to speak, accepts a direct complement (object). Its power affects directly (hopefully I make sense in English) but the nature of the verb is kind. So a direct effect , powerful but the kindest ever.
Wow! Another excellent spokesperson for the Orthodox perspective and for the Lord in general. Love the guests you are interviewing.
Thanks!
As a non denominational protestant I love your videos. I love the way the orthodox pray and worship but I do not agree with some small doctrinal and church practices points. What I love about your videos brother is that you gear them towards everyone and really just want to get Christans together to worship and fellowship. I think we can learn from all Christan traditions, we all get somthing wrong, we are all human and to be human is to error atleast after the fall.
Glad you're enjoying the videos!
Thank you so much. This really blessed me!
What a delight this conversation was! Frederick is a wonderful evangelist for the faith. Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me, the worst of sinners.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I understand the disliking of that purity. I am Christian but I sometimes struggle with not liking innocence. I think it stirs resentment in me. Interesting to hear her say that.
It was such a pleasure to listen to this interview Austin. I shared it with my family as I do with your other interviews. You both exude Christ when you talk. Thank you so very much.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Two of the most pleasant sounding voices meet to discuss a great topic. Thank you!
Haha, thanks!
Lord Jesus of Nazareth You are the Son of God have mercy on me a sinner.....The 1 sentence prayer that changed my life forever 🙏🏻💙🙏🏻
Thanks for this. Being reminded of the pure simplicity, beauty and depth of the Jesus Prayer is something that can never happen too often for me.
Well said!
I love her conversion story. So relatable! Lovely interview! Thank you! I love this channel. 😀
Glad you enjoyed it! My pleasure!
I got to meet her a few years ago. She is really nice
That's fantastic! She was a joy to interview
The Jesus prayer saved me and is a miracle
You’re doing great work, brother.
Thanks!
How do I give this a thousand likes?!
Haha, glad you enjoyed it!
@@GospelSimplicity Loved it brother. God bless you and your channel and Frederica!. Glory be to God
She’s a blessing
Truly
NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY !!!!!!! Awesome. Very much looking forward to this.
Another good one for the books Austin! I read this book when I was in the process of becoming Orthodox, and a year later I find myself in Orthodox Seminary! One thing I think helps us men feel drawn to the faith (I led my wife with me into Orthodoxy), is that men are to be the spiritual heads of the household, and the disciplined and sober mindset of Orthodox Spirituality is appealing to men. I would dare say in a way that helps men to feel fulfilled. At least that is how it was and is for me.
Thanks! I didn’t realize you are in seminary! Prayers for you with that brother
It's appealing because it seems to give you superiority over women?
It would be very interesting to see you interview Father John Behr. Thank you for all your ecumenical work!
I just emailed him! What are the odds of that? Anyway, hopefully it works out!
She will be a marvelous guest! I can’t wait😊
It was a great conversation!
Still five days away from the premeire. I liked it for the Jesus prayer, but I need at least two more likes to give. I haven't heard of your guest before, but I will likely want to give one for your guest and one for you. O well, this one will have to cover three.
Haha, thanks!
Just love her voice. So gentle, soothing, full of peace and full of grace. I can imagine mother Mary talks like that too.
She's wonderful!
So, one of our family dogs is named Freddie. This has allowed for many nicknames, but one of my favorite is Fredrick Douglass Matthewes-Green. Since my family is quite fond of its animals, this is a great honor to be included in the nickname. That is a strange introduction into how great a caliber this lady is, and I am so pleased to hear your interview with her.
That’s awesome!
LOL!
such a gentle motherly-like woman
Jesus has a special place in His heart for hitchhikers 70''s
I hope you can have a discussion with Fr. Spyridon from the UK. Thanks for all your videos!
Hoping to!
Austin thank you. This interview was so heart warming and inspiring.
My pleasure!
Frederica is a treasure! So glad you found her!
Thank you
Love this interview ❤
