I'm an atheist, but even I can't stop watching these videos now! I think you convey your message in a way that's engaging to all your viewers (especially those of us with little understanding of Franciscans), and I'm fascinated by the way you live and conduct your work. Kudos and all the best!

As an atheist (at least as far as an anthropomorphic God goes) I've had a similar experience. Shoeless Joe is another Catholic youtuber I've found interesting. Though I might disagree with a lot of the theology I've found Catholic contemplative traditions incredibly inspiring in my own personal spiritual practice.

I am catholic but I have no clue why your videos started popping up on my feed... I am so glad they did I am really enjoying these.

it's amazing to see an young monk in habits, from the developed world. I'm an Indian Catholic priest working in a parish. I'd a different impression on the western christianity. It is graceful to see an young man who dedicated totally for the kingdom of God amidst all the affluence. It must be a challenging example for hundreds of young catholics to embrace such vocation. please do upload more videos on the life pattern of modern monks and the importance of their presence in today's society.

please include me always in your prayers in thanksgiving, adoration and supplications to our Lord. God bless you always Brother. from Philippines

Hai Bro. Casey. Hopefully your video youtube inspires a lot of the youth. We are in the same boat. I am a Franciscan, an Indonesian Capuchin. Nice to meet you on your video youtube...

Br. Casey is very open and clear with his thoughts, wonderful!

Brother Casey, I just want to thank you for all that you do. Your videos are fun and instructive. God bless you!

I feel awful about it but that last lady read my mind! 😂

thank you very much brother...great and inspiring me !!! Pax et Bonum. I am Effendy, Young Franciscan Friar from Indonesia Province. May the Lord give you Peace!!

the kid who lived in Germany seems very inteligent and well spoken :)

Thanks Br. Casey, you give very genuine, down-to-earth, and humorous answers to these questions. It's quite refreshing!

Just watched some of your videos from Rome, Italy after visiting Assisi, I google to tech more about St Francis to my son and found your channel.

Hilarious, I love the fact that you go out amongst the people, you don’t live a closed life which I have never understood. Jesus went out and helped people and you have a normal life too, enjoying the wonderful gifts life has to offer. The movies, travel, sport and the world in general. You are very approachable and people obviously love you and think very highly of you. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

you've given me inspiration of where i wanna go now. :)

It is so refreshing and informative the way that you present our believes and values as Catholics. I already suscribe to your Chanel because I am discovering more about our religion. Thanks brother from a Knight of Columbus.

I'm so happy and I feel blessed when I watching your videos Bro..... God bless u and your congregation....

Brother, I was born and raised in the Greenville/Spartanburg area and I wholeheartedly agree with your love for Greenville. I also am a graduate of Furman University, Class of 1982. Enjoy your videos and may God bless you, Brother!

Great testimony father made of much humility., intelligence and deep spirituality

I go to that church when visiting my family there, and sometimes cantor there! I totally wasn't expecting it to be featured in your videos, but it's awesome!

You look so happy inspiring God bless you brother 😃😃😃

I'm smiling so much with this video

Hi brother casey, I'm a teenager from INDIA who recently started watching your channel. Now I became your fan ❤

Hello from Greenville, SC!! I didn’t even know furman had such a large religious outreach! So cool to find out you’re a ‘local’ of sorts.

I'm not sure why your videos popped up, but I thoroughly enjoy them! Your parents are quite humorous! I'm sure I'd enjoy talking with them. Got a kick out the mom trying to match up her daughter. But for those on the other end, it's not so funny. I'm a 61 yr old single woman. As late as 2 yrs ago, my mom was still trying to get me married so she could have another grandchild! Believe me, it gets old real quick. I like being single. It gives me ministry opportunities I wouldn't otherwise have. It can be a vocation in itself. But, Bro. Casey, if you ever need an extra Auntie I'm available!

Brother Casey your an amazing Friar, and I learned so much about Friar's life, their roll in the church and in the community.

awesome video casey! would love to see a friar life come back! btw have you seen the "who cares about that saints" series by james martin? would love to see you do something like that...talk about the saints and do brief maybe 10 minute biographies of their lives. Thanks!

Brother, your such an inspiring person ! God bless ! And I'll be praying so you won't go bald too soon 😊😂

What a multi cultural parish! I would stay there!

Father I am so happy that you are able to share your life with others and answer everyone’s questions, I truly hope many adolescents watch your videos. Love your enthusiasm, and your dedication.

What your favourite place The beach and yours? Switzerland 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I don't know why but I just find this so funny

Br. Casey. You seem to be happy being called to be a friar. I have just watched you video today. In addition, it is so inspirational. My question to you, br. Casey, is that, how it is possible to keep the sensitivity of real vocation. In your context, living in USA, Don't you think difficult for young generation to be committed, responsible and to feel God's call? What do you think of the decline of vocation in Catholic Church as a whole? What about the incoherencies caused be clergy? Many thanks; I am Melaku and Happy being a Catholic!

Lolol...”No, no luck to you!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Loved it Br. Casey!

So funny and interesting to watch 😂

great video

I didn't know we had Catholics in Virginia

Hey Brother Casey - I was KZread surfing and came across your videos, watched several, liked them very much, and subscribed! So now I'm going out on a limb and asking a question or 2. I've been away from the Church for a really long time, like off and on,mostly off for over 20 years. I still identify myself as Catholic and I always will. I want to go back but I'm afraid to. I don't want to talk about why I left in a public forum, but I'm wondering if you can give me advice/help to help me return to the Church. I would greatly appreciate any help you can give. P. S. I loved how you said that the Cubs would win the World Series! I'm a Cubs fan to the core!

Hi Br. Casey - Thank you for getting back to me. I will most definitely appreciate any advice you can give me. I totally understand that it's going to be by slow initial steps of getting back to the Church and for me, it's the way it has to be. When you hear what happened to me, I think you'll understand why I need to cautiously proceed. Let's just say that I really never intended to leave the Church nor was it with doctrinal issues. I further understand that I will need to connect with a spiritual director where I live in California, but I'm not ready to do that at the moment. So, should I send you a private message through your Facebook page? Is that the best way to proceed? If so, I'll write to you over the weekend. Again, thanks! Jane

Ah. It was and is to bad I did not know any of this back in 2015, but, that was 3 years before I was Ordained myself. If you are ever back in Virginia again, look me up. I'm just on the border of West Virginia. BTW, this year I've been invited to play a part in a Film shot at Virginia Beach, Virginia. If you would get a chance we'd love to see you there, and you are more than welcomed to participate in the filming! I hope to hear from you soon, Fr. Casy Cole! By the way, my great great grandfather was Jesse Lee Cole from Virginia!

7/15/18 Will you have a full length video on your ordination to the priesthood. I think it would be very spiritual and inspiring to see you except your vows.

oh my goodness this is adorable!

God bless you, Brother! You're doing a GREAT thing. PAX ET BONUM.....Vivat Jesus!

Thank you, brother Casey! and greetings from Norway. Our Franciscan monastery here is tiny with two friars only, in a small town called Arendal (if you would like to google it), but you have inspired me to visit them anyway. I wish it was bigger though, as I would miss the strong, stable, community life. Do you have any thoughts? Thank you so much! August (18)

Ave Maria+ Hi Bro. Casey, it's really inspiring to see young Catholics who seriously practice their faith. Are you the youngest in your Community? Anyhow, heres my real question: As a cradle catholic, i am ashamed to say that i have struggled in reading and understanding the Bible (i think im not the only one). Reading the Bible has sometimes left me puzzled and uninspired. How does one effectively read the Bible? Thanks in advance and God bless.

The last question was definitely coming from a Filipina🤣🤣🤣.

That’s crazy and cool

It was the result of my discernment. I felt drawn elsewhere, like the Priesthood. There are Priests in the Franciscan Orders/Communities, these men are also called Brothers. If God's Will is for me to go back into the Franciscan Order, let it be. :-) If you feel called to Religious life, GO FOR IT! It'll bring lots of Joy! 😃 It was a great experience for me, lots to take way from it. I know you still see my name as Brother, I want to change it, but don't know how.

Woah crazy, you said the cubs would win the World Series and then the dodger kid came up and said they would win! Now the dodgers and cubs are in the NLCS! It would be even crazier if the cubs won the World Series this year! Anyways, keep up the good work, I love watching your videos here in Montana.

How do you address demeaning or antagonistic words directed at you or vocation?

Priests are just as human as the rest of us. Bless you br. Casey. I like the Cardinals by the way.😁😁😁😁😁

Brother Casey I just wanted to ask what is your opinion on videogames/roleplaying games?

Fr. Casey, since you’re prediction of the Cubs winning in 2016 was correct, who will win the World Series in 2020? :o)

Hello Father Casey, What advice would you give to someone( a fully practising catholic by the way) who has a very deep seated dislike of Bishops. I have had some very unpleasant and uncomfortable experiences with them, and I now dislike them to the degree where even at mass, I bluntly REFUSE to pray for them in the eucharistic prayer where we pray 1st for the holy Father and then the Bishops etc etc. I will happily pray for the priests and people at large, but when it comes to Bishops, I can feel my bloodpressurerising, and I just clam up. I won't even go to a church anniversary or whatever if I know one of that lot are going to be there. What's your advice on THAT one.

Furman! WHAT!? I've been watching your video's for a while and had no idea you were in SC! AND a baseball fan!

No way! Jungfrau Valley in Switzerland is my favourite place too! You should definitely go brother Casey, to Lauterbrunnen! You could go on a hiking or biking holiday, or even skiing!

Most High God: O Yahweh: I celebrate you and extol your unfathomable mercy! Lord, I’m 24 years of age, and have suffered through great tests and tribulations, over my short-lived Christian journey. Through the scourge of subtle discipline, you have ordered me, into a Life of Love and obedience. I am a born Christian; I have vowed to serve you, through Life, as a Laity member. You have poured out, the fire and might of the Holy Spirit: upon me. I am invincible, in the name, of: compassion, discernment, self-control and decision-making! Open Brother Casey’s Heart and eyes, just like you did to me! To experience, a: ‘Re-birth’, and insight, into my Life; how I can develop and be ruled by your Eternal designs, for my Life. Ah! Sovereign Jehovah, who gave a vast reward to King Solomon: bars and chariots of gold, upon asking for Wisdom: look! I request for Wisdom and obedience. Oh, Holy Saints of Yahweh! Protect and grant miraculous and prophetic understanding, to Brother Casey! That His anointing will never run dry, and his wealth - in spiritual bars of gold: weighed in Heaven - will reach incalculable value.
