1. You have really good song choices! What is the name of this piano audio?
   Good video by the way, thanks bro

2. Brother Silouan’s refusal to smoke is because of his own preference, not because of moral grounds. There’s nothing wrong with smoking a cigarette. To think that it’s sinful to smoke a cigarette is puritanical bias!!! All areas of the Christian Faith-Orthodox, Protestant, Catholic have this attitude!

3. So pray before smoking, just like we pray before everything else. I truly love orthodoxy ❤️☦️

4. Sound advice. My wife says that the first things she did when led to God was to glorify Him in good living, and gave up smoking, bad company and alcohol almost immediately, and has never looked back. Bad habits really are sinful, and surely a source of temptation. The Lord's prayer is a lovely way to remember God, and think twice before a foolish action. Thank you for this video, Agios!

5. I repent after smoking, i
   don't delibritly set out to hurt the Father

6. Very true the fathers give us many truths!

7. So good

8. When I first found God or rather when God found me it became very easy to give up smoking and so on. I simply wanted to live in accordance with God's plan for me so smoking and drinking were out δόξα σόι κύριε
   A lovely sweet story thanks for posting.
