I love all your homilies! Every single one! Life as a Mom is very stressful, but when I listen to you while I do my work, it makes it completely purposeful. Every day I prepare dinner while listening to you & I imagine that your words of God is a form of prayer over the food that will nourish my children & my Family. You told me that I honor my Guardian Angel when I go to mass, so sometimes I chuckle & say, “I’m gonna make you proud of me my dear Guardian Angel, here’s a thank you for sticking by me!” Your words have changed me even in the little ways of my life Father Alar. There are many of us who deeply love you. Father Alar, I have been deeply enjoying your book, as I have mentioned before, I take it to read during Friday Eucharist Exposition Adoration. It’s my dessert, after praying the rosary. I used to go only 1 hour, but now I go 2 hours! Why? Just so I can read your book!

We also believe that as God is one in heaven and on earth, so is His Church one in heaven and on earth, the one Bride of Christ; if a sinner like me is a member of Christ's body through baptism, how much more are the Saints in heaven who are perfectly united with God and His Church in heaven. Praying the Rosary brings us closer to the reality of heaven, constant prayers to God in unity with the Saints. It is in the Bible, "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven."

No it's idolatrty.

[@eagletrigger]

@@ashbyt1 No it's not. The rosary started when the common folk, in imitation of the monasteries who prayed all 150 psalms daily, started praying 150 Our Fathers instead because they didn't know the Psalms and Bibles were too expensive/took 3 years to copy for anyone to get them. Over time, others prayers inspired by the Bible were included, eventually settling on the Our Father, 10 Hail Mary's, and Glory Be that we know today. Each decade was then given a Gospel/NT event for the praying person to reflect on. The rosary has, and always will be, a means for us to reflect upon important Scripture passages. In this way, it's not idolatry, it's a means for us to grow closer to God.

[@eagletrigger]

@@infamousgrizzly1358 pray: transitive verb : ENTREAT, IMPLORE -often used as a function word in introducing a question, request, or plea intransitive verb: to make a request in a humble manner Prayer is not solely worship. In fact, by it's original definition, it was not a form a worship, but a means to implore someone or something for help. Take a course in Shakespeare and you'd understand this as he uses it quite frequently. Now, regarding Mary, we don't worship. Nor do we the saints. We worship only the Triune God (Father, Son, Holy Spirit). But just as we can ask our fellow man here on earth to pray for us when we're in need, why can't we ask those in heaven, who remain our brother and sisters in Christ, to likewise pray for us in need? Sure, you can just pray to God on your own, just like you can go before a judge and plead your case. But wouldn't you want a lawyer who knows the lingo and is on a similar level to the judge to plead your case instead? The saints are in heaven, right there with God, in his Divine presence. Would that not make their prayers all the more pure before God (since no sin can be before his presence)? Also, the prayers of the rosary are biblical. The Our Father is a no brainer. The Hail Mary is a combination of the greeting by Gabriel and Elizabeth in Luke. And the Glory Be draws from various verses glorifying the Trinity. These are true prayers, unlike the half-hearted BS you constantly spew and call prayer.

[@eagletrigger]

​@@infamousgrizzly1358 pray: transitive verb: 1: ENTREAT, IMPLORE -often used as a function word in introducing a question, request, or plea pray be careful 2: to get or bring by praying intransitive verb: 1: to make a request in a humble manner 2: to address God or a god with adoration, confession, supplication, or thanksgiving 3/4 of the definitions for the word "pray" have nothing to do with worship. The original meaning of the word meant to request or ask for someone aid. If you ever read Shakespeare (which I highly doubt you have) you would know that he used it very often when characters asked questions in need of an answer or when needing help. So your understanding of what prayer is is fundamentally flawed to begin with. Now, let me state emphatically, we only worship the Triune God (Father, Son, Holy Spirit). When we pray to saints, we are asking for help. It's no different than asking a family member or friend close to pray for us. Except, the saints are in heaven, therefore they are no longer tainted with sin, unlike us here on earth. So it stands to reason that their prayer would be more pure and efficacious than ours here. "Well, I just pray to Jesus. That's all you need to do." Ok, fine. No true Christian says you can't. You should. God wants us to talk to Him, to bring all our hopes, worries, thanks, and problems to Him. All praying to saints does is asking that they, in its lowest form, put the good word in for us and our intentions. You could go directly to a judge and plead your case. But wouldn't it be better to get a lawyer who speaks the same lingo, knows the law, and can better argue your case before the judge? It's not a "one or the other" situation. You can pray to God AND His saints without taking away from God. To say otherwise is to put limitations on the limitless God. Which begs the question what god do you truly worship then? For all the Biblical verses to help prove my case (because I know simple logic is to your kind what sunlight is to a vampire), go here: www.catholic.com/tract/praying-to-the-saints . God speed.

[@eightmiles3401]

​@eagletrigger then what is all that for? Cant God hear your prayers from your heart? Do God really want your repetitive words? Does God created a robot that when you press the button it will speak what ever words that was programmed to? You are glorifying mary and think that glorfying her will also glorify god? Are you saying to me that mary is now the mediator and not Jesus? Wake up people! You are being decieved and heading towards destruction!

Ave maria? Pray directly to God. Jesus died so you could do so. Mary is not an intercessor; she is dead. Romans 8:34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

Great stuff father Chris. I’m not catholic but I’ve been praying the rosary everyday for some time now.

I noticed the days (only a small handful) that I missed out, I felt like I was falling away from Christ. So for me it’s become more of a daily ritual to remind myself of what Christ went through for us.

God does not bless people who teach blasphemy like mary worship.

[@Joe-qs2bq]

A shame you didn't also go over each mystery in the rosary especially the Marian ones. May God bless you and your work ❤✝️

I too pray the Rosary...but I wish to become one one day

[@alinawears4443]

Friends, if God wanted the rosary in there do we not think He would’ve put it in there? We are degrading God’s power when us, humans, add to it? “You shall not add to the word which I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.” ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭4‬:‭2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭6‬ ‭NKJV‬‬.

Wonderful. Thankyou!

[@libertygiveme1987]

I Pray the "Rosary" EVERY SINGLE NIGHT!!!! Question Father. The days in which we live, as you're WELL AWARE, are very sad and somewhat confusing. Many non-Catholics have been speaking about "The Rapture" for the last couple of years quite INTENTLY!!!! My question to you is, why isn't the Church talking about "The Rapture"?! I know we believe in it!!!! And what are your thoughts on it?!

[@janetcorrao5072]

You've answered your own question: non-Catholic. It is a hopeful sentiment from the mid 1800 with no foundation for practicing Catholics. Our Lord never promised, like Our Lady to many seers, that we would not experience pain or persecution here, only, with perseverance, joy in heaven. Sorry, no easy way out, only help and love through .

[@gerir4386]

Suggesting you watch Fr. Chris in Explaining the Faith on the End Times. Fascinating! 😘🙏💙🌹❤️

[@DivineMercy_Official]

Thank you LG... I have a series of three videos on youtube about this matter. This is the first one. God bless kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKndkGRqjr2VY9k

The RC church is a travesty and an abomination. Read the Bible for yourself.

[@el_papanatas]

Hi Father Chris. This is an excellent video, a good learning source; is there a Spanish version? If not, to consider to publish these videos, inclusive using close-caption for other non-English speakers.

I tried praying Rosary before Home Gym and every time I pray I have strength to successfully execute the heavy weights without having muscle fatigue. If I exercise without Rosary It is stressful afterwards. It is real don't prove it, have faith and it works.

[@angelo1064]

I love Fr. Don Calloway! I literally can't stop listening to his talks about the Blessed Mother and the Rosary. He makes me laugh and proud to be a Rosary-praying Catholic.

[@emanzoma9320]

By repeating the hail Mary alot you will defeat the evil one .

[@ashbyt1]

Read Matthew 6:7 And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words. -Jesus

[@EugeneMcfadden-777]

Jesus is the only one who should we pray too & Jesus Christ is king & we should worship Jesus only & Jesus is the one who should praise

[@DivineMercy_Official]

Thank you but who worships Mary? Certainly not Catholics. That has never been Catholic teaching and never will be. There is no encyclical, papal bull, or any kind of magisterium statement in the history of the Church that says to worship Mary. "To pray to" doesn't necessarily mean "to worship" but "to ask." Haven't you ever asked anyone to help you? We ask Mary to help her lead us to her son. To bow doesn’t necessarily mean worship either. Japanese businessmen bow when receiving your business card as a sign of honor. Are they worshipping you? Certainly not. God bless kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZmamHejn71gjrc

[@pegminarski5253]

Love ❤️ saying the rosary and Chaplet each day

[@michaelciccone2194]

The Anglicans that are Anglo Catholics have deep Marian devotions and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.

[@Counselangel13]

How could anyone think that the Mother of Our God’s Son was not Biblical? Don’t they read the Bible??A gathering of prayers is absolutely the way many Religious songs were written! They are “so old “as you said Yes,the Turks know! They Lost! Great story Fr. Chris! Thank You for Loving us All!

[@DivineMercy_Official]

Thank you but many despise Mary. Yes, it is sad and in need of prayer for sure. God bless.

[@ashbyt1]

Mary worship and prayers are idolatry, pure and simple. I do not hate mary but the 10 commandments say that you only pray to 1 God (not mary)

[@giarose6493]

Love this 🎉

[@3miL_2012]

So this was recorded on October 7, 2022? Reliving what happened a year after really says a lot. God help us.

[@jesusmaryjoseph831]

Thank you Fr. Chris for the explanation. Sad to say that there many non Catholics don't understand the powerful prayer that Mama Mary teach for peace and conversion of sinners. Just finished watching the Filipino Catholic Defenders channel being attacked by Filipino protestants. Mama Mary, pray for us.

[@DivineMercy_Official]

Yes, Liz, true....

[@ashbyt1]

Don't pray for the dead. mary is long dead and she was never sinless or a god.

[@luckyh2037]

Background music. Nice way of putting it. "stayin Alive"..hahaha.. "You can tell by the way I use my beads.." Now that songs gonna try to pop into my head when I say the Rosary..Jk. Nicely presented Fr.

[@DivineMercy_Official]

Lol.... whatever works! :)

[@mph1ish]

Hahaa!

[@larrya7822]

Your reference to scripture was not biased on proof, but on emotions.

[@ingridreid494]

Jesus said we are all to be holy as he is holy.
