Since earliest times Christians have used pebbles, a string of
knots, or beads on a cord to keep track of their prayers, and
prayer beads can be found in virtually every major religious
tradition in the world. Anglicans and other Protestants have also
begun to use the rosary to help refresh a life of prayer--it
creates a rhythm that helps wean us from our distractions and focus
our attention so that we can more readily move into God's presence.
As the beads and prayers recede into the background, the mysteries
that make up the rosary come into our minds and hearts like
religious pictures or icons. First published by Doubleday in 1975,
J. Neville Ward's unusual collection of meditations offer an
entirely new approach to the rosary for all Christians. He begins
with its traditional use and then offers fifteen insights into the
life of Jesus and his mother Mary that can speak to us today. Thus
a meditation on the sorrowful themes reminds us of the suffering
that is so much a part of our own lives, while the joyful and
glorious mysteries speak of the desire for faith, hope, and love
that will heal them. These reflections serve up a rich spiritual
repast for Christians seeking new contemplative practices and
learning to pray with the rosary.
