Obedience — and especially the obedience found in the monastic life — reveals to us the way (and the content) of intimate union with Christ, and it is for this reason that we do not fulfill obedience to Christ, but as Christ. And He, the Son of God, teaches us that obedience is what we gather from the Father's love.

Obedience by Hrisostom Ciuciu
I found this book to be very helpful and powerful teaching. Definitely need “Ears to Hear”. This “Obedience” is not aimed at a overly pious sense of “worship”, but is a means of understanding the
necessity obedience plays in our willingness to live the will of God rather than our own. -
