The Rosary: The Ark of Encounter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the Church\u2019s extensive offering of private devotions, none claims more miraculous events or has amassed a more devoted following than the Holy Rosary. From healings to conversions to deliverance from addiction, there is a good reason that saints, popes, and laity all turn to and recommend the Rosary for spiritual struggles and challenging times. I have prayed thousands of Rosaries and can attest to its power over sin and its ability to communicate grace and truth in a way I have not found in other devotions, pious as they certainly are.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet my mind is restless, and like my 4-year-old son, I constantly ask, \u201cWhy does this happen?\u201d and \u201cHow does it work?\u201d I believe the answer lies not in form, but in content, and that content begins with understanding Mary as the New Ark of the Covenant.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
