    [Prayer Series] Daily Rosary: The Joyful Mysteries
    Nov 20 2025
    Saints & Skeptics Prayer Series - The Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary - The Joyful Mysteries (Mondays & Saturdays)

    The rosary is a Marian prayer that depicts the biblical life of Jesus. The word "rosary" derives from the Latin word "rosarium", meaning a garden of roses. Tradition tells us that Our lady appeared to St. Dominic while he prayed in the forest. "My son", the Queen of Heaven said, "prayer and penance are the only way to win souls".

    The Rosary is a deeply meditative Catholic prayer that reflects on key events in the life of Jesus Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary. These events are organized into four sets of "mysteries": the Joyful, Sorrowful, Glorious, and Luminous Mysteries. Each set contains five individual mysteries (or events), making a total of 20. These mysteries are not just historical events but theological meditations meant to lead the faithful into a deeper relationship with Christ.

    The Joyful Mysteries reflect on the joyful events surrounding the Incarnation of Jesus.These mysteries show how God's plan unfolds through humble, obedient human cooperation, especially in Mary. They are prayed on Mondays, Saturdays, and Sundays during Advent.

    On this episode of Saints and Skeptics we ask "What was the Second Vatican Council, or what is commonly referred to as Vatican II? What did they discuss there? Who was involved? And most importantly, so many people reference changes to the Catholic Church that were supposedly made during the Second Vatican Council, but what actually was the result of the council? What has changed since then?"
