I’m not a Catholic officially but I started praying the rosary daily a couple of months ago and the changes it’s made have been pretty amazing. I’m planning to talk with a priest soon about RCIA.
That's incredible! God bless you on your journey to the Catholic faith. Be rest assured of my prayers, and the prayers of the Universal Church for you!
That's wonderful. Thanks for sharing. I started praying daily rosary 3yrs ago and the graces have been amazing. Our children returned to church and extended family are now starting their walk with the Lord. God is great 🙏. Will be praying for you 🙏
That's amazing ❤ God bless you 🙏
It was the rosary that brought me back to the church after a 20-year it's also help me conquer many vices. And my son has come back to church also
My story is similar. I've been praying all the mysteries of the rosary, each intention is for the conversion of my family and I to the Catholic Church. My spouse is pretty anti-catholic so I'm hoping Our Lady will change her heart 🙏
I was diagnosed with cancer, and praying the rosary brings me such peace and comfort! I know Mary will intercede for me as she is our mother, and knows my pain, as I have two little ones I want to be here for! I know our Lord will protect my children and me, as we go through this battle.
I converted to The Catholic Faith from Anglican and pray The Holy Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet daily . I can honestly say my life has changed for the better , my relationship to God is closer than ever before . I am better able to resist sin , I meditate more on the life of Christ and Our Lady's part in His life . Thank You Blessed Mother , Viva Cristo Rey
Make imagen and worship them is agains the Bible Exodus 20 the ten comanmeth
Mary did have more children after Jesus
Mattew 13 v55-56
The catholic church don't want you to find out. Is their biggest inconme of money.
please take a look in the Bible
Thanks.
The rosary is powerful. Unbeknownst to me, my mother had given me my grandmother’s rosary after she passed away in 1992. She put it in a box which I put in my basement. 23 years later I discovered it. I didn’t even know what it was. I learned how to pray it, and then got baptized into the Catholic Church in 2017. My grandmother told my mom that she wanted me to have it. I believe God placed that rosary in my home many years ago and like a tree it rooted itself into me and my soul. Now I leave rosaries everywhere I go because they are like tangible seeds of faith. You plant them somewhere and they grow.
The creator of all people, living creatures and the universe is Allah. There is no god but Allah. The truth is that Allah is the only god. Allah has no partner. Prophet Jesus is not a child of Allah. Prophet Jesus is the servant and messenger of Allah. The last of Allah's messengers is the prophet Muhammad. I invite you to this truth.
Coming to the world, living in the world, giving birth, having children, being killed or dying all belong to weak servants like us. Allah, the only God, is free from these and does not need anything for existence. This belief is called Tawhid. I recommend you to read the Quran.
@@zxcvbnm-pk6jfI believe in God, the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ His only son our Lord.
This is so beautiful, thank you so much for sharing this
@@zxcvbnm-pk6jfTawheed isn’t in the Qur’an. Allah cannot be “al-Wadud” because his attributes are eternal with him, but there was nothing to love before creation. You cannot love with nothing to love. Consider reading the Bible and getting baptized for the forgiveness of your sins, brother. Praying for you

The worst part is I KNOW for a FACT that things are better when I pray the rosary - but I still neglect it so much. Truly my own worst enemy and self saboteur.
Please read my testimony in the comments. I had the same struggle. But I overcome it with the help of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I haven't stoped praying since that grace.
Any update?
First stick to a decade a day, soon it will grow to two effortlessly, and it will grow from there. Another way to never miss it, is to offer it for someone that is important to you, remembering that prayers can be sent thru space and time.
We committed to pray the Rosary every single day since June of this year. My husband has only missed one day and I haven’t missed any. I will never go back. Our lives are so much better in small ways, but also in big ways. We are now expecting Baby 3 and closing on a better house next month, the Month of the Rosary. I will never not pray the Rosary every day.
About two years ago I started to pray the rosary every day, I was not always successful as far as doing it everyday but I was committed to do it. Sometimes I just forgot, sometimes I didn’t feel like it and sometimes I was just too tired. It changed my life little by little. I was raised Catholic and got away for a while, I am back now and I feel so strong about my faith. I will never get away from God ever again. I go to church every Sunday, I understand how the sacrements are important, especially confession (which I was so scared of)
I now pray the rosary every day and started to incorporate the Divine Mercy Chaplet in my everyday as well.
God is real and unfortunately evil is real as well. They say the rosary is the best weapon against evil. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Mary, mother of God, pray for us. ❤
I was raised in a very Catholic family, but in my 30's I got very far from the catholic practices. I knew I needed to come back, but I had no strenght to do it. Until a serious problem knocked my door, and I desperate prayed the Novena of The Sacred Heart of Jesus composed by Saint Pío of Pietrlecina. The Novena contemplates asking for three graces. I asked the solution of my porblem, of course, but as I still had two more graces to ask, I asked for beeing perseverant in the prayers, minding specialy the Rosary. The last day of the Novena, while I was finishing the prayer, I realized that in each of the last 9 days I also had prayed the Rosary, and an enormous and intense sense of love to God invaded me. I don't know how, but I knew, very clearly, that there was no other treasure in this world worthy to look for than God, know Him and love Him. I was so happy, imensely happy.
Suddenly, I felt - just in a spiritual way - the presence of someone vomiting hatred arround me, yealling of rage. It was so intense that I started to fear that invisible presence, and that fear made my life very unconfortable during a month, in which I was hardly able to go upstair to attend my baby at nights or simply beeing alone. Even that, the Grace of God was assisting me and I was no able to left my prayers again, I didn't want to! The grace urged me to pray. I needed to pray, and many times I felt "cravings" for prayer. I have to say that during that time I received many spiritual (non visible) consolations that helped my to "survive" the tough temptation I was going trough.
After criying a lot and asking to Our Lady to stop those temptations that were taking my peace off, I managed to go to the confession (I wanted, but always something happened ) and after the confession my peace returned! Observe that I also had temptations to not say tho the priest anythig regarding my fears, because I didn't want to confirm to whom was arrasing me wat happened in my mind, which he is not able to read... nonsenses, my body was transparent enough regarding what was happening on my mind, and clearly was another lie to obstruct the sacrament of penance.
If you do not have strenght enough to pray every day. Ask for it!
I pray the rosary every single day plus the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. It has helped me tremendously in my daily life. Nothing helps one like prayer.
Me too! 🙏🏼Amen!!
Me Too!!
That's my goal, plus attend daily Mass, read Catholic books, the Catholic Bible, Catechism, have leisurely walks, make rosaries - all in due time 😊
@@dinnapadilla And with God's grace, you'll definitely get there!
It certainly does help us tremendously!☺
Started the RCIA course yesterday…I was definitely led on my Catholic journey by doing the rosary daily.
God bless you - from a convert
Your story about you as a kid during the Rosary gives me hope for my children lol
It's like herding cats getting them all gathered for the Rosary, then they make it very apparent that they'd rather be doing anything else. 😭
Lord grant me perseverance.
Is it possible to pray it with motions or dance versus just sitting still? Make it more engaging and fun. Children often learn better when multi tasking. Scripture says the little children were drawn to Jesus. I have to believe Jesus must have been filled with joy, expression, dance and fun along with that of duty and obligation… my son is 25 so just speaking from my experience teaching kids church. The more engaging seems the more desire. Though I get it takes from the reverence maybe… creatively possibly combine reverence and fun. Or sing the prayers? Just thoughts.
Do just one decade with them. As they get older, add more
@@Eternallyhopeful7788 This is a very great idea
I do a decade of the rosary with the children before bed. (One day is for the beginning)
They do like the rorsary, but a whole one is often just too much for them.
In 6days we have a round done. It's not a whole one in a day, but I try to give positive assosciations to the rosary.
There's a rosary with art on CZcams and my kids really love seeing the different images (the background music also is calming). We're not at the point where they actually participate through the whole rosary, but it has been much better than other times we've tried to pray.
I highly recommend St. Louis de Montfort's book The Secret of the Rosary.
I ordered this last week and am looking forward to reading it
“If anyone does not wish to have Mary Immaculate for his Mother, he will not have Christ for his Brother
Never be afraid of loving the Blessed Virgin too much. You can never love her more than Jesus did.”
”Jesus honored her before all ages, and will honor her for all ages. No one comes to Him, nor even near Him, no one is saved or sanctified, if he too will not honor her. This is the lot of Angels and of men.
St Maximillian Kolbe pray for us.
"De Maria nunquam satis"
There’s a thin line between honour and worship my friend. Let us honour her by all means but guard against turning honour into worship, for ONLY God is worthy of worship.
@@mark7428 "She had relations with her husband after Jesus was born" We know the arguments for and against this and you don't know this for sure. Jesus called her woman the few times he addressed her in scripture because it was common and typological. You also don't know that for sure (that it was because of potential idolatry) You're literally speaking FOR him here. Her importance ABSOLUTELY does not end with his birth; she literally changed his mind at the wedding feast when your modern ears picked up on the "woman" address. Queen of Heaven is clearly demonstrated in Rev 12 where right before that John was talking about the ark of the covenant. Yes, it also means the Church and Israel...that's what's neat about prophecy but the Ark typology is clear as it also is when Elizabeth greets her "how is it that the mother of my Lord should come to me?" You're making a lot of bold assumptions, my friend. I get the confusion about brothers and sisters though, even though original reformers like Luther didn't play this. God bless you.
I just started praying the rosary 4 times a day.
That is fantastic, but I got like no time to do that many 😢
@@Saintvanillagorilla a way to help with that. Whenever I’m in my car driving to places instead of listening to music I pray a rosary.
This is absolutely wonderful! I only pray it once a day, and I have a difficult time with that at the age of 74. I have the time but I lack The concentration. Please pray for me I would appreciate it.
Are you a THEIST? 🤔
If so, what are the reasons for your BELIEF in God? 🤓
Impressive!
I didn’t go to confession for a year and a half, and by the time I did go, it was like a 50 lb. burden off my life. I decided after that, to go once a month. It’s made such a difference!
Saturdays are a big, big grace day for me. Confession followed by Adoration, the Rosary then Mass. 😊
Our Blessed Mother has said that the Rosary is the most powerful spiritual practice one can perform outside of the Mass. And since many of us can’t go to Mass every day, praying a daily Rosary is incredibly helpful for spiritual growth, repentance, and healing of ourselves and the world. Mary has instructed all of the faithful, through many apparitions, to pray the Rosary every day, for the salvation of souls.
Perfect 👍🏻🙏🏻
Fr Chris Alar has said that if you cannot attend daily mass [this is not a substitute for the Sunday Mass] saying the Rosary is like the liturgy of the word and the divine mercy chaplet [I offer you the body blood soul amd divinity....] is a way to contemplate the liturgy of the eucharist.
@@belle2157 wowwwwww that’s crazy
Praying The Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet daily brings us peace, strength and drives demons away. Praying The Rosary is contemplating Jesus Christs life, each decade reflects different events. Comprised of verses Mt 6:9-13, Eph 3:21, Lk 1:28, 42-43 & Jm 5:16. Rosary Center online gives The Mysteries to reflect on while praying. Powerful weapon against evil!!!
The Blessed Lady requested us to pray the rosary every day. We should treat her request like it came from God.
Solid advice Father. I do caution folks to be sure to focus on diving into the mysteries more than simply checking a box or doing it because a particular apparition said it was really important. I say this because as someone who struggles with anxiety and can be scrupulous at times I can turn the Rosary into more of a charm or spiritual insurance or a mere obligation that I feel pressured into doing. Put that all aside and focus on the mysteries so that the graces can flow freely and have their effect. God bless!
I started praying the rosary around 8th grade. I truly believe it has transformed my life. Meditating on the mysteries has brought me closer to Jesus and Mary. Through the rosary, I have discovered more fully who Mary is in relation to God, to the Church, and to me.
I have done Fr. Michael Gaitley’s 33 Days to Morning Glory, a Marian consecration. I truly believe that Mary is my (spiritual) mother, and she is the gateway through which I hope to reach eternal life with Jesus.
Pray the rosary. Good things will happen.
I pray the rosary everyday, it’s the best thing I can do for my life, feeling closer to God, praying for Priesthood, Priests who have helped me in my journey through life, with its ups and downs……Father Gregory, I love your videos on you tube…..God Bless…..
To keep my attention and genuine I usually try to do a mystery a day of the rosary. It can be difficult with attention issues to pray it in its entirety, so I usually pray little praysers throughout my busy day when in need and when thankful. Its a good way to make up for not having the mental fortitude to withstand 30 minutes of rosary. I'd rather my full attention on God rather than half of it
My favorite thing about Father Gregory is how not only his intelligence resonates, so does the love he has of being a priest. Ascension is great at finding priests with these characteristics.
Was absent from the Catholic Church for a very long time snd right before lent this year something kept repeating in my head “pray the rosary “ started praying it and next thing I was going to confession and now a much better catholic than I was over 40 years ago . Have not missed a day since . I also do the seven sorrows chaplet snd the st Michael chaplet and going to start back at the Devine mercy chaplet . I have a lot of catching up to do as the saying goes .
They’ve been announcing it for so long. If I lived in the states I would absolutely go. I hope it’ll be an excellent time for everyone who goes. I’ll be praying the rosary from home
When my husband became sick I began praying the rosary in my car. I would also pray the novena to the Holy spirit. I could not have gotten through the ordeal without prayers.
Always words of wisdom....
Father Grumble Belly, may God bless and keep you safe!!
What an incredibly insightful and helpful video. Thanks Fr. Pine..you and Fr. Mike have been, and are, truly gifts from God; have been for me anyway.
Yes, you should. Before I became a Catholic, before I found a sponsor, before a lot of changes to my spirit, worldview, attitude, and way of living, I began by praying the rosary. In Latin (because, hey, why not, while I’m at it!).
I won’t pretend I’m more consistent than I have been, but I can testify to it being a powerful tool to open your life to the Lord, who will grace you more powerfully than you may understand.
I credit sources like this and Bishop Barron, who explained the rosary to me so that I COULD begin praying it in good faith, because I was in a Protestant mindset where it’s widely misunderstood and reviled as idolatry. God works miracles with the hands of his body, the church, and I’m grateful to God for such good pastors. I pray for their good, and for all our leaders to hear ken unto God. Without him, all our efforts to do good in this world will fail, but with him and all our shortcomings, the world can thrive in goodness.
Champions of the Rosary is an amazing book.
Thank you Fr. Pine for sharing more of an insight for praying the rosary. I struggle to pray the rosary daily.
I prefer saying the rosary while walking up and down the corridor at home to avoid sitting back-pain. i remember saying the rosary in Latin in the early 60s with my mother .
Can I recommend the Servite Rosary as well? You say 7 Hail Mary prayers while meditating on the 7 Sorrows of the Blessed Mother. She has worked miracles and taught me so much about Jesus and myself since I started this devotion this summer.
Is that the Seven Sorrows of Mother Mary？
Yes.
Yes of course! You can pray the original Rosary, the Divine Mercy chaplet, the Seven Dolors Rosary - all will help you in your spiritual life
Just returned home from Dominican Rosary Pilgrimage in DC. Awesome, spiritually enriching day!
The 5 decade Rosary is great to get started with since it only takes about 20-30 minutes, but the fullness of the Rosary is all 15 decades which is more like an hour. If you are doing 0 decades every day, absolutely do five, even that much endears you to Mary and changes your life!
But if you are doing 5 consistently, push yourself to do the real whole 15 that were requested by Our Lady at Fatima, and you will have a much deeper and more mature spiritual life.
Love the Rosary, love the Office, simple as.
Sometimes I vary between them to avoid burnout
Beautiful chapel btw!
Fr. Gregory Pine is a national treasure. God bless you
IM gonna start praying the rosary every day
I think it's good to add praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet.
Thank you!!
Well spoken father. Thanks!!!
How beautiful!
Thank you for your words!
Thank you
I've been waiting so long for him to come back and give us a video. Love Fr. Greg.
Thank you Fr. Pine!! This is very helpful.
Our Lady asks it of us, so yes.
“Yeah, the Rosary, it's awesome” [4:20] 😀☦❤
Amen
GabiAfterHours on youtube has done many videos on praying the rosary and how it combats mortal sin - specifically all four mysteries. I pray all four as often as I can and definitely recommend the practice. 🙏🙏🎉
I love saying the rosary which I could say it all day but I have the time but I do say them
With all due respect, Father, I cant seem to shake the images of you chuckling about the smell of new books. You have hearty sense of humor, Father Pine. Please forgive the aside. I will get over it. Have a blessed day.
Yes
Canon law asks seminarians, religious, and clerics to be formed by the rosary. We should pray the Rosary daily, as the Saints and Church has recommended.
NOTES for later reference
Precepts of the church:
- go to Sunday Mass
- receive Holy Communion at least once a year
- Sacrement of Confession at least onec a year (once per month recommended)
- support church's temporal needs
Daily possible indulgences:
- pray 30 minutes in the presence of the Blessesld Sacrement
- make the of the stations of the cross in a public church or oratory
- read sacred scripture for 30 minutes
- recite the rosary of the blessed Virgin Mary in common
(see handbook of indulgences)
"Everyday" means commonplace, usual, quotidian. "Every day" means every day.
Read the 15 promises of the Rosary. I have obtained some of the promises by praying the daily Rosary.
❤❤❤❤
Should you pray the Rosary every day? Yes, yes and YES!!
This should be a 10 second video: answer is "yes"
Great, helpful thoughts, as always! I was expecting some reference to Fatima, but I’m guessing navigating private revelations might be more appropriate for a separate video.
I started with the rosary and saint michael prayer, I do a mystery everyday. Then i added the divine mercy and a few others. I pray about 40 to 45 mins a day in the morning. I love it. I'm trying to build my relationship with him. I've had a calling to pray the Rosary for a long time, it even got stronger after my grandmother passed away in the beginning of the year. She herself was very devoted to the rosary and since I built a prayer life, there's not a day that goes by that I don't do it . 🤍🕊🙏
What’s the difference between the rosary and divine mercy?
@MomHarper - The Rosary is a meditation on the Scriptures, while the Divine Mercy is a personal offering of the Holy Mass. St. Dominic organized the three part Rosary in the 12th century, and St. Faustina received the Divine Mercy chaplet just before WWII. Together, it works like we have just attended Sunday services. But you still need to receive the Eucharist.
Sometimes I switch it up and do Lauds & Vespers of the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary instead of the Rosary.
Ur cool fr I ❤🔥🔥🔥🙏u
🙏🕯🌹🕊❤️
New Catholic here. I was never taught how to pray the Rosary. How do I start?
You can look it up online. There's some good tools available!
Hi welcome home praying the Rosary is a Game changer, , after you learn how to pray the rosary check out fr. Don Calloway he wrote an awesome book called champions of the Rosary and his conversion story is incredible
At the channel "uniquely mary" we pray the rosary at 9 pm central every day. stop in to listen and pray if you'd like
I recommend Hallow. They have a free version and it let’s you read the rosary and also have it prayed out loud. That really helped me learn
Greetings Father Gregory,
Thoughts :-
->Message highlights"The Core Values of Remembering the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Rosary for Divine Revelation with blessings of Holy Spirit and Grace of Lord Jesus Christ through Sacred Mysteries in Holy Bible in every moment in all aspects of Life."
->My Prayers with best wishes for everyone in Rosary Pilgrimage, Washington - US.
-> Keep Our Family in Prayers for Good Health.. Thanks..
With regards and Prayers,

Fr. Gigichad Pine rocking the Casio F-91w. Absolute baller.
I don’t believe I ever prayed the rosary, though I received one when little. I did not know anyone who did though they were given as gifts yet never used. Now, in seemingly many around me praying this as a form of spiritual protection in warfare, I may just start. Though in starting it tends to feel awkward. T
If I can in Passion and Understanding, this would be a blessing. To do anything out of duty becomes burdensome. Sometimes to get to Passion, walking through duty is needed first to find freedom. We will see. I believe many or most of us could use protection, spiritual - emotional- physical
Healing and strengthening in our Spirit so we are able to draw nearer to Christ. Its been on my heart as something maybe I give a shot at for the month of October… each day for 31 days and see if I am drawn nearer to Christ, His love and His heart. If so, that would be a Great Blessing from God. ❤️🩹🙏❤️
call the local Catholic Church. they have Rosary said regularly. EWTN streams the Holy Rosary on TV and youtube.
@@rosrychaplet Yes, they do before mass. My desire is for it to be a personal intimacy with God so I plan to do it alone though I may join a group periodically. Easier to arrange just God and I. We will see how it goes. 🙏
You are so right about sometimes needing duty to get to passion. I encourage you not to give up too soon just because it feels like you're not getting anything out of it!
@@Mrszsz Thank you! I agree! 💜
Never thought that one would not pray it every day.
Do watching videos on CZcams about our faith count for indulgences?
No
With all due respect, if you listen to Our Lady of Fatima, the answer is quite simple. She said, "The faithful must pray the rosary every day. " She would not ask us to do something we could not do, and she reaffirmed the rosary in each appearance at Fatima. Pope John Paul said, "The Fatima message is addressed to every human being." And she warned of great evils to come upon the earth if we didn't listen. "If my requests are not heard..." Everyone should read THE SECRET OF THE ROSARY.
I didnt know that about the indulgencies !!!!!!!!!!!!
I do some of those now!! Do you get two if you do a full holy hour? Or does it stop at the first half hour? Just curious.
There were some reforms in the indulgence dispensation by pope Saint Paul VI, in order to retreat from the numerical approach to the finality of it that is to foster greater union with God, in the case partaking His Nature through Good Works. So you can only receive one >plenary< indulgence a day, but you may grow in merit and likeness indefinitely. Remember, every good action is eternal and keep everyone a bit farther from sin, even decreasing a bit the gravity of the sins that would be committed; and makes every other good action cheaper and more tasteful, even though Goodness should suffice Itself.
@@deussacracommunioest2108Good to know thank you!!
Praying the rosary on its own or a holy hour for 30 min isn’t enough for a plenary indulgence. There are 4 other conditions. One can only receive one indulgence a day
Soooooo..... should I pray the rosary every day?
Is it ok that I pray the Crown Rosary every day?
GabiAfterHours and Flame of Love rosary Journey Deeper amazing rosary advocate channels!^_^ 4 mysteries a day
Once upon a time a certain King gave to His chosen servants the free gift of vast riches to each one. In the process of time men under the pretense of being the King's servants rose up and went to the descendants of the chosen servants saying If you desire to be heirs of the free gift of riches you must follow us to earn those riches and do your part. After following those deceivers, the descendants found they had no inheritance of vast riches and even lost everything they seemed to have. They inquired of the King for their riches. The King said Did not I say my riches were a free gift but you did not believe me instead working to earn them. Then the King cast the deceivers and descendants into prison for ever.
Ephesians 2:8 KJV "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast."
@@CatholicDefender-bp7my Mark 3:22 KJV "And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, HE (Jesus) has Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils HE casts out devils."
JESUS said in Matthew 10: 24 KJV "The disciple is not above his MASTER, nor the servant above HIS LORD. 25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as HIS MASTER, and the servant as HIS LORD. If they have called the MASTER of the house Beelzebub (devil/satan), how much more shall they call them of his household?"
Hey ascension present. I have a question need your opening on this. So I try and pray a Rosary everyday MY coz I can't go for daily mass. However Dad always tell me that don't pray the Rosary instead partaken in a Mass on CZcams. Like the EWTN masses (not Live) What do you think. Should I continue to pray the Rosary or Should I partaken in online mass?
Masses in person are always FIRST priority, because it's the Liturgy and receiving the Eucharist (unless you need to go to Confession first). I would order the Rosary second and the online Masses third priority, if these devotions are what you're drawn to.
@gmacch Thank-you! U Solved a huge confusions. I do try and read the mass reading of the day, but only sometimes
What to do if I dont see any effects of praying? Everyone says they see miracles when they pray and I dont see any improvements.
God answers prayer in different ways --- sometimes yes, sometimes with a no...and then other times with a 'not now' :-)
Does praying the rosary imply reciting 5 decades or 15 ? or 20 ?
One rosary is 5 decades.
Does the Church think our daily rosary, done at home (if single, done alone), does not help those in need (and ourselves) as well as if we did it with others (in common)? If it is not very effective, is it just as well not to do it - and only read scriptures (the only thing on the list that is not dependent on others or when the church is open)?
Praying the rosary is second only to praying the mass
@@SamScott99 That's what I thought, but Fr Gregory said it is only consider an indulgence if it is prayed with others ("in common").
@@blujeans9462 Fr Pine didn’t discount that point, in my opinion. He is correct in saying that if prayed with others or in a church it meets one of the 5 conditions for a plenary indulgence, one must do the other 4
@CatholicDefender-bp7my Thank you!!
Can u choose between praying the mysteries of rosary and divine mercy of rosary?
Rosary is necessary.
Chaplet is optional, but at our times, with more and more offenses to Our Lord, we need ask Mercy for those who doesnt know what they are doing... opportunity for conversions... for our conversion...
Why not both ☺️🙏🏻
If I had to pick I would pick the rosary but thankful I don’t have to
You may choose whatever devotions you want to incorporate into your prayer rule. If you like the Rosary then do that, if you prefer the chaplet of Divine Mercy do that, or if you like something else entirely do that. "We are not saved by prayer rules, but by our willingness at every moment to fulfill God's will instead of our own" - Archimandrite John Krestiankin.
@@CatholicDefender-bp7my can you explain ? 😀
I wonder why Jesus never taught to pray Rosary. Why so many mysteries like mystery Babylon?
The prayers of the rosary are scripture verses! The rosary was created as a means for illiterate people to pray the 153 psalms.
Scripture has mysteries, does that mean Scripture is demonic?
If no, why?
Tbh, my life *was* miserable before i started the daily rosary. Lol
I suffer a LOT so is offering up suffering an indulgence?
Not on its own. There are many conditions to a plenary indulgence, and it can be looked up. But, offering one’s suffering to the sufferings of Christ is nessecary in a Christian life
@@SamScott99 thank you.
@@gemum4219 please be assured of my prayers as you face this cross in your life
I'm quite sure not going to and missing a Sunday obligation of Mass is a mortal sin. Confession and holy Communion once a year, may be the minimum to remain in communion with the Church, but its not the minimum for remaining in communion with God. What is this guy talking about???
I don’t see how praying the rosary every day will help me. I tried doing this, and it was not a good experience.
If you don't mind sharing: why was it not a good experience?
@@tryingnottobeasmartass757 when I tried, I would say the mysteries for that particular day out loud. I had no sense that anyone or anything was listening. It felt like I was just filling the silence. I felt quite foolish.
@@markantonelli53, that's okay. That's normal. We trust God. He listens whether we feel like He does or not. Remember: how we feel about reality does not change reality.
@@tryingnottobeasmartass757 if I’m going to feel foolish while praying, then why pray? There must be something wrong with me since I don’t want to pray. I’ve never been able to see the presence of God in anything that happens
@@markantonelli53, ignore your feelings, and pray anyway. The devil wants to destroy you, and he will use any thing he can against you. In this case, he's using your feelings against you. The point of prayer is not to feel wise or foolish or even necessarliy to sense God's presence. Its purpose is to worship God, thank Him for His gifts, offer to Him our lives, intercede for other people, tell Him about our needs, and to learn how to know Him better. Both our feelings and our lack of feeling are irrelevent to these purposes. One does not become a more charitable person by feeling charitable. One becomes charitable by acting charitably whether one feels charitable or not.
Interesting that you say what the Church asks, rather then what God asks. It sounds like the Church is rival to God.
Sunday Mass + Communion 1/year + Confession 1/year + Support the churches temporal needs = 4. Not 5.
I am so bored and disappointed with life right now.
OH! I did a quick search. The missing precept that he didn't mention is- You shall observe the days of fasting and abstinence established by the Church.
Fr. Gregory Pine O.P. You have just been schooled. Who is editing your videos?
He also said confession once a year if you’re contious of grave sin. That’s not true, if you’re contious of grave sin go immediately. Once a year is assuming you don’t commit a grave sin
Yes that was a bit suspicious. Well noted@@SamScott99
To be honest I do like Fr. Gregory Pine. But he goes into theological concepts so deeply sometimes that he over complicates them and ends up missing their simplicity.@@SamScott99
I am sorry Sam but contious isn't a word. (checked the dictionary) I am quiet sure you meant conscious.@@SamScott99
One more and I'm done. Cool little music list. I take it your from TEXAS!
hey church... just pray for your needs... dont ask for money from your members living in poverty.
We should substitute the Liturgical Office by the Rosary. I mean, who is more in Union and more capable of uniting us to God if not His Holy Mother? Even more than the Bible, which she mystically gave us. Mediatrix, pray for us!
The Liturgical Office is the universal prayer of the church. The rosary itself is modeled after the liturgical office, which should have priority
In fact, for a good time many congregations made use of the Office of Our Lady instead of the Breviary. Since Vatican II, however, they are encouraged to use the "common" one, for a pastoral end, of making the public prayer of the "People of God" the psalms, which is supposed to help with ecumenism. I have tried the 150 psalms daily and 1000 Hail Marys(A Rosary by mystery), and found that even though the psalms shape our humanity nicely in the awaiting for the Messiah, second coming in our case, I felt much more peace and closer to God in the mirroring of Our Lady. One of Saint Louis Mary Monfort's praise to the Rosary was that meditating the Life of Christ is more excellent than meditating the expectation of His First Coming, as the New Alliance is traditionally more excellent than the Old One.
@@deussacracommunioest2108The Rosary is a beautiful prayer but just because you find more peace in it doesn't make it more important than the official prayer of the Church. It is not just because of ecumenism. What if someone else finds more peace in the Breviary? But feelings aren't the measure, the Church teaches us that the Breviary has priority.. It is our most important prayer after the Mass. It's not required for everyone so of course you can replace it with the Rosary but I disagree that it should be replaced for everyone
@@dansedevie123 @jessi9496 It is not about feelings, as I said, a short while ago, and long before, the Office of Our Lady was used widely. The very idea for all, the laity, to pray the Breviary, which is also from the Council, even though it is not bad, comes from this understanding of the entirety of the Church as a Sacrament, more than the particular sacraments and priesthood as in Trent, which is not bad either. My point being that this configuration may look more efficient to human eyes, but the witness of True Great Sainthood and prodigies of Grace are all operated through Fierce Marian Devotion. In every single apparition, approved or not, Our Mother confirms how the Rosary is the weapon for our times. Our mind will never be as an efficacious instrument as Her, you need to deal with it. But yes, She is a Pearl not to be cast to the swines, and the Church has indeed became a pigsty these times.. We must know by Faith that as She is exalted, everyone raises their spiritual profit, just as when God is exalted, even though everybody hates Him.
@@dansedevie123 By the way, even Eucharistic Adoration, after the Sacraments, is raised above all other devotions, and certainly is proven to be more efficacious. Every good priest does it and has devotion to Our Lady, it will just get more and more obvious as time goes by, hopefully. We are not a People marked mainly by the waiting for the Messiah like the jews and the orthodox, we are a People United to God, and partaking His Blessedness, until Heaven makes us perfect. We shall await His Second Coming more for Him to take us to Him than to consummate His Justice. And we cultivate such Hope more in tasting His Blessedness in Communion than in the knowledge of the expectation. That is just my theological opinion, even though as persuasive, to myself, as the Truth.
nothing like a god who needs repetitive requests. pray to a rock... equally effective.
There is NO way that I can pray 15 decades of the Rosary daily. Why? I pray very very slowly and deliberately and 2 decades would take me 40 minutes on a good day. Is it okay to pray a partial rosary BUT on a consistent basis? I have an obsessive/ compulsive personality or condition. The answer seem simple but it bugs me inwardly that I cant pray that long. anybody's input would be appreciated! thank you.
Hi friend, I might have a suggestion, dont know if it fits for you, but maybe you can do your very slow decades, (even only one decade) and then maybe complete a 5 decade Rosary while walking/biking/driving etc. Just an idea for you.
God bless you 😊
Even one decade per day is fine. Just do your best.
The rosary doesn't do anything, nor does repeating "hail mary" over and over again. Salvation is by Christ alone and Jesus said to only pray to the father in his name, but before you do that you must be saved first. Ephesians 2:8-9 "for by grace you have been saved through faith, and not of yourselves it is a GIFT of God. Not of works lest anyman should boast." Salvation is by grace through faith alone, you cannot add anything or you are not under grace. The Greek translation for the word grace is CHARIS meaning "unMERITTED favor." Simply believe the gospel to be saved and be saved permanently. "After you BELIEVED, you were sealed with the holy spirit of promise who is the GUARANTEE of our inherentance until the redemption of the purchased possession."
Romans 11:7 "And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work."
Greetings jamison, more and more people are deconstructing from all of Christianity these days, meaning they would disagree with your point of “Salvation is by Christ alone and Jesus”. I disagree with this as i do with you. The point is just because say it and just because they say it does not make it so. So now what is the issue… well, what makes your interpretation of scripture the correct interpretation or should i ask, what makes your version of “i let scripture interpret scripture” more correct that the hundreds of others in the world? Is it the infallible one? If not then who really cares? on the other hand there is this to ponder and answer “IF” you have an answer…
History shows us that Jesus didn't leave us a bible, the apostles didn't tell us which books belong in the bible, the church fathers never agreed on the 27 books of the NT through the 4th century, not only did they not agree but their list of would-be NT canons were GROWING during this time. So, if it wasn't the Catholic/Orthodox church that compiled the 27 books of the NT in the 5th century with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and preserved it by laboriously hand copying them over and over throughout the centuries before the invention of the printing press, the “rule of faith” for many, please tell us, show us, who did? And if this church no longer exists today, what good is the text which came forth from her if she couldn't sustain herself?
@srich7503 also, feel free to explain why you think salvation has anything to do with works if the literal Greek translation of grace is CHARIS, meaning "unmeritted favor." Paul says "for by GRACE you have been saved through FAITH and NOT.....OF......YOURSELVES, it is a GIFT of God, NOT as a RESULT......OF........WORKS, so that no one may boast." Thats not an interpretation, that's reading plain text.
If according to Paul we are saved by "unmeritted favor" then logically you CANT MERIT IT. Which means you can't "work" to effect it, it has to be by faith alone. This stuff really isn't that hard.
@@jsam1997 I would love to do that jamison - AFTER you answer my question above. 👍🏻
@srich7503 I don't know enough about the creation of how the Bible was put together to comment on it. You're basically speaking a foreign language to me, but let's say for the sake of argument that the catholic church did do that....and? If anything its more embarrassing that you guys put the Bible together and yet don't even know how to interpret it properly. Isn't the catholic church the same ones who pray to Mary? Chapter and verse where it commands us to do so. Don't you guys also pray to the saints? Chapter and verse that commands us to do so. Don't you guys also make confession to a priest as if he has more power than you? Chapter and verse, 1 john actually tells us to confess to the Lord himself, not to a priest. Don't you guys also hold up that pagan golden sun idol looking thing you decided to call "the eucharist" DEFINITELY need a Chapter and verse on that 🤣🤣🤣 and you also seem to for some reason believe Jesus's "essence" is in it......OK.
You guys are just like the new testament pharasises who had the entire old testament for hundreds of years, studying it and still didn't even recognize their creator/savior when he was standing right in front of them.
hes talking like hes reading a script 😅
Before you pray the Rosary you must repent of praying Satan!
What?
Da! Just what it says.
Catholics are praying for Satan(Lucifer?).
@@JamesPetrycia-zj7yq, why do you think Catholics pray to Satan?
When you die, you will know the truth.
@@JamesPetrycia-zj7yq, so will you. You'll have to stand accountable for every damnable lie you've told about the Catholic Church. Repent before it's too late!
Of course not! Pray to God and God alone through Jesus! Don't be fooled by the false teachings like Revelation 12, the woman being Mary. Or, that she remained a virgin her whole life!
We are to honor Christ’s mother because He honored her. She is our mother. A prayer to Mary is a prayer to God
@@SamScott99 Scripture tells us there is but one Mediator between us and God, Christ Jesus! It's so important that we pray directly to God that the Holy Spirit intercedes for us. To reject the Holy Spirit is to reject God!
@@glennherron9499 nobody here is rejecting the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is Mary’s spouse after all! But why wouldn’t you want someone extra to pray for you? I ask my family and friends to pray for me. I Especially want the closest creature to God to pray for me too
@@SamScott99 Please provide scripture to support that the Holy Spirit is Mary's spouse
@@glennherron9499 right below this comment is a good paragraph I found that could explain it better than I could in my own words
The rosary has no basis in scripture at all, Catholicism is work salvation, please turn to Christ in faith as the Bible clearly says we are saved by grace which translates to CHARIS meaning "unmeritted favor/free gift." quite literally. There is a Reason why Paul says in Romans "for the wages of sin is death, but the FREE gift of God is eternal life through christ Jesus our lord." Again grace's literal translation in the Greek is "unmeritted favor/free gift." Salvation is completely free all you have to do is believe that what Jesus did for you 2000 years ago actually worked. He died as a substitute for sin on the cross for you and me because the penalty for sin is death, if the penalty has already been paid and "by grace you have saved through faith" then all you are doing is believing that his payment was for you, a.k.a excepting it and believing you have eternal life as a result of his finished work (and of course believing he rose from the dead as a dead savior can't save you.) The reason you cannot add a work to Christ's finished work is because as Paul makes clear in Romans 11:6 "And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work." You aren't under grace if you add something to the gospel because grace must be unmeritted for it to be attributed to you. Again, you are just trusting in what Christ already did for you, that's why in ephesians Paul says "after you believed, you were sealed with that holy spirit of promise, which is the GUARANTEE of our inherentance until the redemption of the purchased possession." Paul can't use the word guarantee here if salvation is partially based off of something you do, as obviously YOU can fail in your efforts meaning there is obviously no guarantee. But if it is entirely based off of what Christ did, then there is a guarantee.
A simple No will do
Why?
Life being better?
