The Value Of The Rosary | Jonathan Pageau EP 4

This episode was recorded on October 13th, 2021.
Tammy Peterson welcomes guest, Jonathan Pageau, once again to explore religious symbolism in Catholic practices. Chronologically, this is the first recorded episode of a multi-part series with Jonathan. Together they discuss the significance of the rosary-what the physical components comprising it represent, how its use is fundamentally tied the way humans construct and store memory, how it's shape is signified in the processes of the church, and more.
Jonathan Pageau is a French Canadian symbolic thinker, KZbinr, editor of the Orthodox Arts Journal, an eastern orthodox icon carver extraordinaire, and explorer of how (underlying) symbolic patterns emerge, develop, and finally manifest in religion, art, pop culture, etc.

I started praying the rosary 1 month ago. I was desperate for God but didn’t believe yet that he was real. I laid in bed one night and said to God that if he was real, to please show me. I told him that if he was real, then I would leave my whole way of life behind and follow him in everything I do for the rest of my life. I was struggling with gender dysphoria (I thought I was trans) and I’ve lived as a lesbian for over 10 years. I started praying the rosary everyday because I figured it couldn’t hurt to try. A week after starting the rosary and praying it everyday, I found myself stumbling into a traditional Latin Mass service at 7am in the morning before the sun was even up in Sacramento CA. I didn’t know why I was there but I sat in the very back and couldn’t stop staring at this little flickering candle lit and held above everyone at the very front of the church. My eyes were fixated on it and all the sudden I was overcome with a flood of emotions and just started to bawl my eyes out. The level of intensity was almost unbearable but not in a bad way. It was like I was being held and in an instance I knew without a shadow of a doubt that God was real, and I had no explanation for it. I just knew. I had never felt more loved than in that moment. A week later I started catechism. I haven’t stopped praying the rosary. I’ve prayed it everyday since starting and now I attend adoration and Latin mass every week too. I found out a bit later that the flickering candle meant that Jesus was present in the church. It blew my mind. I never in a million years thought I would be following Christ. Please, anyone who sees this, continue to pray for me as I only hope for the strength and courage to follow Gods will for my life no matter what cross I have to bear to do so. I just want to know God more everyday.

bless your beautiful heart, surrendering yourself to the loving will of God. Our mother Mary is calling us all, and I too want to surrender, its a daily challenge to humble myself. Consecrate yourself to Mary according to the instructions of St. Louis de Montfort. Jesus gave Himself completely to Mary, starting his human life in her womb. He asks us to do the same. I will pray for you Nancy, please pray for me, a recovering addict.

My second husband was in the ICU, with his liver failing. It was very late and I was there by myself, waiting to find out if they could stop the bleeding. I looked up the words for Hail Mary and said them over and over, till the doctor came out. My husband did not make it and I was left to deal with that loss. I moved across country. I'd asked God to help me find a new church home. An online friend was making rosaries so I asked for one. I found out how to pray it, helped along by Hallow. I started going to Mass. was too late for RCIA classes last year, so I took them this year and joined the Church this Easter vigil. There are times when you need to just pray. Saying the Rosary can teach you how.

[@user-gl9jd3ih8h]

Travelling from Australia about 5 years ago to South America, I casually collected rosaries from various churches. I was not a practising Catholic (and very LAPSED) and had never said the rosary in my life. I thought the rosaries were a beautiful piece of jewellery and hung them up on my bedroom wall as an ornament. Little did I know that in 2023 I would return to the Catholic faith and say a daily rosary. It has made a huge difference to my peace of mind and life. I am very, very grateful. The Blessed Virgin was waiting all along. Cudos to her!

Now, maybe you can write it off as mumbo jumbo, well meaning nonsense…but then there’s the evidence that reality presents us which paints a picture where the Catholic influence on the world has been the greatest of any cultural movement to date. Not that numbers grants you the claim to truth automatically, but in the absence of sound evidence to reject the claim, then the consensus that millions of people have been praying to Mother Mary for millennia and seem to have found more peace and goodwill than any other social, political, religious, or technological evolution.

I’m happy you made a choice to dedicate your life. That’s a gem in this current wokeism world. That said, I do think having “Catholics/Christian” is a bit of a confusion.

I was born Catholic, educated by n u ns, my grandmother was very devout. I never GOT IT. I always respected, visited churches in my travels. I had a bad emotional crisis and I turned to Jesus for clemency. I even think that in my seeking advice I heard His Voice saying Don't go. But I went, because...I had to ( to meet somebody I was obsessed in love with And I needed to see, resolved the situation. It became the worse nightmare lasting years of unhappiness.

Thank you so much Mrs. Peterson for being willing to be thrust into the public life alongside your immensely important husband. For context I’m a 40-something married Catholic man who converted at a young age from a Protestant denomination, estranged from my mother in adulthood (for reasons unrelated to religion and still was at the time of her death in 2020). The thing I wanted to express such gratitude for is the maternal and paternal love and care that so evidently flows from you and Dr. Peterson. I can’t even express how much it affects me to simply listen to your voice and hear the sweet kindness combined with strength while I can listen to Dr. Peterson and hear that fatherly sternness combined with genuine concern. The utter lack of pretentiousness as you have a video with a laundry room in the background is something that I just absolutely cherish as I listen to you speak to this beautiful prayer that has had such immense impact to me as well. That you pay attention to the little coincidences is just so awesome as I do the same (and due to my gender I’m a bit dense and so many times these coincidences tend to be quite amazing for me to recognize them). May God bless you and Dr. Peterson and your beautiful children and again thank you!

When I was 14 I became Catholic but not a very good one. I didn't really understand the depth of the Catholic faith. I was helping set up the rummage sale at the Episcopal church down the street from my house and I found a book about the rosary by St. Louis Du Montfort. I bought the book, but I didn't have a Rosary and didn't understand it. For years when life was painful and difficult I could hear the Blessed Mother asking me to pray the Rosary, to ask her for help. When I finally said, "yes" a nun I knew came by out of the blue and gave me a beautiful Rosary. A little while later a woman at the grocery store gave me a booklet about the Rosary. When I ask Our Lady for help she helps me. When I neglect my Rosary life gets difficult. It maintains the peace in my soul.

[@alphabeta8284]

As a recent convert to Catholicism (from Indian family), the nostalgic element of the rosary completely falls flat. The power of the rosary is not in the nostalgia, it ultimately comes from God through Mary. She is indeed our mother. She indeed has been given the power to crush the head of Satan. She indeed has a legion of Angels under her command. She indeed intercedes for us. If it is our duty to behold her as mother, it is her's to behold us as her children. A command issued to each of us by Christ our Lord.

[@peacetruth4802]

As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, “Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you.” He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.” Luke 11:27-28 Read the gospel of John to encounter Jesus Christ.

Dear Tammy, I wanted to share that during my trip to Cyprus last May, I had the chance to meet you and Dr. Peterson. While there, I gave him a special gift during the meet and greet with the intention that he would pass it on to you. This gift held a souvenir from the Lady of Lebanon (a Marian shrine), symbolizing my homeland Lebanon, along with my personal rosary that holds deep sentimental value to me. This rosary was crafted by a close friend who introduced me to Dr. Peterson and his impactful work. It's a token very close to my heart, and I used to jest that if I ever gave it away, it would only be to you, given your love for praying the rosary. I hope you've received this gift, and I'm grateful for everything you and your husband contribute. May God's blessings be upon you both❤. Jessy from Lebanon

And I must admit that, having followed Jordan and Mikhaila since 2016, I can't think of your family as other than a group that has been chosen to help save souls, bringing Good people all around The world to the right path back to the Truth- or closer to it.

The Rosary at the beginning was given to St Dominic. And has developed over the 800 years, with The Creed and The Fatima Prayer given by the Angel in Fatima. The more you pray it, you will grow to love the Mother of Jesus deeper and deeper. She will become your very own Mother. In prayer you can never pray enough. The Rosary is not magic, it is Spiritual.

​@@TammyPetersonPodcastSaint Louis De Montfort wrote 'The secret of the Rosary' and 'True Devotion to Mary'. These two books really helped develop my prayer life and deepen my relationship with Jesus. A famous quote of his is "To Jesus through Mary". No one can love Jesus more than his own mother. Apart from Jesus no one suffered more from his passion than his own mother. Jesus died physically but Mary died as well witnessing her son's persecution. I hope these points from St Louis De Montfort may help you with your meditation on the life of Christ. God bless you and keep you and your loved ones in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy Ghost. Amen.

Dear Tammy, I'm so glad that you have discovered the ROSARY as a very precious prayer. I pray rosary every day. First thing in the morning when I wake up, still in bed trying to wake up gently when just listening the rosary on the internet. Than, in the car on the way to work and to my son's school ( we have a long journey daily driving through a beautiful Sherwood forest). I would not be able to go peacefully throughout the day at my secondary school where I work. The rosary makes my day, put my mind, my emotions into good, positive direction, when I put everything in God's hands, my child, his learning, myself, everything we do, say, have, all the problems, worries and it enables me to be thankful to God as well for all the blessings big and small, all the loving care and protection of God upon us. THE ROSARY IS JUST EXTREMELY AMAZING, IMPORTANT, POWERFUL, BUT SIMPLE PRAYER.God bless you all in here.

One interesting aspect about the number of Hail Marys in the structure of the Rosary: when the cycle is completed ( 3 days) it adds up to 150, which is the number of Psalms in the Bible. The Rosary was seen as an extension, or the lay man version, of the Liturgy of the Hours prayed at the monasteries, which basically is the chanting of the Psalms throughout the day and night. Lay people did not have the time nor the resources (books) to pray it, but in this small way they felt connected with the men and women that have dedicated their entire life to "praying without ceasing" (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

I really whish you would have a discussion of the rosary with a Catholic. That would be so powerful.❤️

[@suzannahjames5264]

Everyone needs to have this message shared. We catholics are not the only people God loves. I’m not meaning to be offensive.

[@acfatemi]

Praying the rosary have helped me and my family so much. I am the only one that is praying it, but with it Our Lady have done miracles in disguise! It is very healing as well

[@rosarojo3146]

Dear Mrs. Peterson, I feel so much peace in my heart just to listen to you talk. Thank you so much for sharing your testimony about the prayer of the rosary. I think you’re an amazing good person. I have been praying the rosary around 25 years and it makes me sad that I never had as much love when I prayed as you do. However, since I listen to you talked about the rosary and your way of leaving is helping me have more love and devotion towards our Holly Mother. You need to know that you inspired many people to be better in this life. May God blessed you and your Family🙏

[@TheCatholicRose]

I LOVE this!! This filled my heart so much 🥰 Thank you Tammy. Mary changed my life, so beautiful to see how she is working in yours. Spread this love! Ave Maria!!

God bless you Tammy. I converted from atheism 2 years ago going to college as an engineer and realized how good God is. I thank him infinitely that he loved me so much he'd die for me.

[@anolisa1939]

I don’t think you thought the biblical story through. Essentially, God has himself tortured & killed as a human sacrifice to himself, in order to appease himself, thus sparing a tiny fraction of his most adoring slaves from the eternal torture he created for them. 🤔

[@zacharyp10]

@@anolisa1939 Why do you think that?

[@anolisa1939]

@@zacharyp10 Let’s say you have a toddler, one too young to know right from wrong. You decide to test their obedience by designing a room filled with every kind of candy, and before you lock them inside it, you tell them to eat any sweet they wish, EXCEPT for the green m&m’s (which you’ve secretly poisoned.) Before you close the door, you push a deranged psychopath inside, one who’s sole mission is to tempt the child into disobeying you, and consume the poisoned candy. Unsurprisingly…they eat it (being omniscient, you knew they would.) The poison will negatively effect the child throughout their life, and at the end of it, cause eternal pain & suffering. You’ve designed this poison to pass from that toddler, to their offspring…and have commanded them to breed more of themselves before they die, to maximize human suffering. Eventually, you begin to take pity on the population you’ve cursed. And decide to mutilate, torture, and kill your own biological child. He’s innocent, perfect, and made of your own flesh. Destroying this perfect specimen satiates your blood lust…and you now feel vindicated in alleviating a tiny fraction of the suffering your poison has caused. You now give the cursed population an ultimatum. Worship and obey me…for all time, and I will give you the antidote to the poison I’ve placed within you. Or don’t, and suffer unimaginable pain forever. ….Now, tell me…did this being “love” that toddler, or his descendants?

The Rosary is a very powerful prayer, God bless you Tammy.

Ah the Rosary, I try to Pray the Rosary Daily, Whenever ever I miss Praying the Rosary I feel wrong and cheated. It is the only time I walk on my own with no interruptions and by the end I am calm. I love Mumma Mary.

Tammy you are an inspiration to me as a lifelong Catholic and daily communicant. You are helping me deepen my love of the Holy Rosary. You are in my prayers

[@crushtheserpent]

It can't be overstated how much I love the Rosary and our Blessed Mother! 💚AVE MARIA 💚

[@aesfaith90-14]

Thank you for sharing this prayer. It is so powerful that it can stop wars, heal the sick and convert sinners. I have seen so many amazing things happen through this prayer. It has sustained my faith especially in difficult times. I am reminded that even Jesus and Mary had times of joy, sorrow and glory. It reminds me that Jesus came down from heaven and lowered himself to experience this difficult world that we live in so that we can experience his glory. When I go through difficult times I am reminded it is just for a season. Please continue to pray the rosary. It will transform you, your family and the world.

[@TheCatholicRose]

Amen!! I have seen the same in my life 💕

[@mapinoita279]

When I pray the rosary or the Devine Mercy chaplet or the Jesus prayer, each prayer seems to me like a stitch, connecting heaven and earth like the layers of a quilt when you sew in the batting. I can see in my mind the lower cloth (our world) being tugged up by the thread till it connects with the upper cloth (heaven), stitch by stitch, prayer by prayer. The more stitches, and the more people praying, the better!

[@rainastor4789]

Wow, I love this!

[@sometimescharlotte5243]

[@mariarodriguez3228]

Love this. Thank you, Tammy, for speaking on the importance of praying the rosary and the intercession of our blessed Mother. It's biblical and it's an extra help for our prayers. God bless you and Jordan. The wisdom you both share is a needed blessing to humanity. 🙏🏼

[@frances1282]

Hi Tammy. Watching this video made me decide to start praying the holy rosary. I prayed the holy rosary last Sunday night. First time in a long time. On Monday, the NZ gov't said they are ending the traffic light system and the remaining mask & vaccine mandates (health & disability workers). Coincidence?.. Today is the third day I prayed. It's amazing how calm I have been. So I will continue to pray it everyday. After the rosary, I sing songs to our Blessed Mother. I also include you & your family in my prayer of petition. More power to you. And as always, God's Will Be Done.

[@everlynecherotich605]

Role of a woman in the family unity (in relation to the role of Mary as a Mother to all of us), one family together, in one home, eating the same food...... that's so powerful!! A great blessing to you people

[@donitawelschnewton]

I like your podcasts, having watched several now. When you told the story of your mother using an electric knife to cut bread and it fuzzing the tv, I started laughing to the point of tears. When I was growing up my family watched Disney and had a tv dinner. Also, I remember the electric knife … oh Lord! Your demeanor are easy to listen to and I like your openness. Thank you.

[@HoradrimBR]

One can never overestimate the power of a rosary praying wife! Given that Jordan is open minded and a good willing person, I would be surprised if he didn't convert to catholicism in the future. God bless you Tammy! Keep up the good work! 🙏🏻

[@palmtree9815]

You should interview the lady from Rwanda who wrote the book The Boy Who Met Jesus-Immaculee is her first name I think. She hid in a small bathroom with several other women during the terrible genocide there and praying the Rosary kept her sane and comforted. She tells the amazing story of a young Rwandan boy who was visited by Mary a few times and Christ-they warned him about the coming evils that took place. He had never been to church but when he told the local priests and leaders of all he learned they thought he’d been to a seminary (impossible as he was a poor villager) it’s truly remarkable! 🙏✝️🕊

[@TammyPetersonPodcast]

Thanks for the recommendation. I bought the book.

[@marielittle7533]

Oh, Immaculee's book Left to Tell - Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust is also something else. The rosary has an amazing role in her story. My son was required to read it in Catholic school, so I read it too. It's the kind of story that stays with you! Powerful.

[@RunningRiotRaiden]

Tammy Peterson, thank you for your explanation of the Rosary and for your faithfulness in prayer. God who is Love Truth Justice and Mercy will look at your intercessions for your family and others and will reward both you and them with truth and life.

[@PaoloMunoz]

The Blessed Virgin Mother is the feminine archetype that our culture is missing. She is the Virgin who brings Heaven to Earth by her simple beauty, innocence and humility. She is the Beloved Daughter of the Father. She is the Mother who raises the Son to become our Savior. She is the Faithful Spouse of the Spirit of Truth, the Spirit of Fire who guides us in the darkness. She is the true Ark of the Covenant who leads us into battle. It is said that Satan fears Mary more than Jesus because Satan can stand being defeated by God, but not by a mere human woman. God bless you, Tammy.

[@Ivkovifi]

It's somehow a sign of God for me. I recently started praying the rosary again and the KZbin algorithm chose to show me this video. I touched me so deeply that I even shed some tears. Mainly because I thought of the time when I prayed it together with my grandma. Bless you!

[@cristinaobrien3051]

Thank you Tammy and Jonathan for this beautiful discussion. The Rosary is a beautiful gift from our Blessed Mother. A quote that comes to mind every time I pray the rosary is “The Rosary is the Bible on a string. It catechizes using Scripture. It’s the chain that binds Satan.” Father Ronan Murphy.

[@josephinelovsin4961]

God Bless You for promoting this most effective prayer needed in this difficult world.

[@judementz-gibbons6730]

Thank you Mrs Peterson for spreading and explaining such an important powerful loving prayer - directly to God through his blessed mother. Creates miracles - I have witnessed too, if God’s will. My husband too had terminal cancer and had 18 months to live. That was 29 years ago. I prayed the rosary daily. I learned if what we pray for is not answered directly, it gives us the strength to get through anything when said with love. Powerful. The world needs this faith and love through the rosary for healing and world peace. 💞🙏

[@galaxxy09]

Tammy, it would be a blessing if you did a pray along type of video with the rosary. Thank you so much for your videos , you add such a unique spirit to these videos

Hi Tammy. I've been praying allot for convertion of famous people the last 2 years. Im so fan of your husband, I've learnt a lot from him . Im so happy to knows your beautiful story. Im sure your history will help many people to discover the powerful of the holy rosary. I always have seen my mom praying the rosary, since my childhood . My brother and me used to pray the rosary with her before going to sleep when we were kids . As she studied in a amercian school she taught us to pray Holy father in english :) ( Im from Perú) . Im catholic since always but Im back to the rosary pray practice since 2 years ago . My mom never gave up encouraging me to pray it. I used to think It was enough for me to go to mass on sunday. I was totally wrong. We all need to have this powerful habit that help us to live imiting Jesus, in peace.

The rosary is the most powerful weapon we have as human beings. It’s not the gym, it’s not shrooms, it’s not abstention, it’s not economic success, these things do not have agency over demons. JBP should reveal this weapon to his subscribers. The rosary and holy communion are spiritual keys to salvation.

Wonderful!! I’m so happy you are discussing the Rosary!!Our Lady of Fatima asked us to pray, pray often, and the Rosary everyday. The Hallow App has rosary with scripture/ reflections, including Bishop Barron, it’s treasure 🙏👏

[@prolifefilm8127]

Our Lady asked us to pray the rosary - to set aside time - to make the effort - to seek her help “now and at the hour of our death”. The daily practice of picking up our beads and “settling in” develops a deep personal trust in God’s care and the peace He promises.

[@margiecox1022]

I love the Rosary and the Blessed Mother. Growing up, I didn't understand a loving biological father, so the idea of an omniscient Father in Heaven was a terrifying concept. The idea of a loving mother didn't scare me though and I feel like she brought me so close to Jesus through contemplating the mysteries and the sacrificial nature of Jesus ultimately revealed the nature of God the Father to me. I still don't understand things perfectly, but it opens up thoughts that are beyond what I'm smart enough to know. Even when my prayers aren't answered the way that I wanted, I've never felt alone and I have peace in the difficulties of life. Thanks you so much for spreading this Devotion. God bless!
