Review:

Members of small Christian communities may choose to include one of the four Mysteries in a Day of Reflection and share with one another the results of their meditations. The guide may be just the kind of book a good friend would be glad to receive.Buena Vista Resource Page

Harried priests, religious men and women or parents who are looking for a fast read to enhance their prayer lives are in luck. The thought-provoking comments provide some spiritual nourishment as you rush from place to place trying to get things done, as each one ends with a theme to carry you through the day.CRUX of the News

Mark Boyer’s short book is for anyone who wants to rediscover the rosary.The Faith Connection

This brief and attractive booklet provides meditations on each mystery of the rosary, including the Luminous Mysteries or the ‘Mysteries of Light’ recently promulgated by Pope John Paul II. The meditations evoke the biblical scene or motif behind each mystery and suggest connections to our daily experience. A lovely way to freshen this beloved Catholic work of piety.The Bible Today

This small book―it would fit in pocket or purse―is packed with wisdom and inspiration.Amazon.com

Not just another book on the Rosary, Reflections on the Mysteries of the Rosary is unique, fresh, and a joy to read. Fr. Boyer extends a 'Welcome Back' to those who may have forgotten the magic of the Mysteries! Even the seasoned Rosary 'prayer' will discover illuminating insights into the Mysteries of Light together with the challenge to plumb anew the depths of the familiar. The author combines the wholesome earthiness of everyday experiences with the awesome intimacy of God in our lives. An intriguing balance of the intimate and contemporary, this book lends a crisp newness to the recitation of the Rosary and supplies food for reflection to last a lifetime.Dr. Pauline Nugent, CCVI
