Is the rosary biblical? If Scripture says that Christ is the one mediator between God and man, isn’t it wrong to pray to Mary for her intercession? What are some of the historical signs and wonders associated with the rosary? How can praying the rosary increase our faith in God and his promises and help foster greater love and holiness in our families? Everyone recognizes the string of beads with a crucifix on the end as a symbol of Catholicism. But the rosary is not for piety-signaling or hanging on your rear view mirror—it’s a powerful tool for prayer and meditation. 20 The Rosary reveals the history of this venerable devotion (and how it’s not an act of idolatrous “Mary-worship”), explains the gospel mysteries that it dwells on, and shows you how to pray it more fervently to unlock the graces that God wants to deliver through it. The 20 Answers Series from Catholic Answers offers hard facts, powerful arguments, and clear explanations of the most important topics facing the Church and the world—all in a compact, easy-to-read package. Check out dozens of other topics in the 20 Answers Series of booklets published by Catholic Answers Press.
This compendium of common questions about the rosary and respective answers to them is greatly organized and shows the true value of understanding why the rosary is one of the things that we as Catholics can do to deepen our faith.
