This review is from: Praying the Rosary for Inner Healing (Hardcover)

I found the healing rosary insightful and provocative. It challenges one to take a good look at our lives and forgive our past hurts as well as own responsibility for the hurt we have caused others. I especially welcome the author's constant urgings to take our failings and hurts to the sacrament of confession.

This book is too important to leave on the shelf. I have purchased six, and have given them all away, including my own. I will certainly be purchasing more of them, as I really miss my copy; but, when someone is suffering, what can you do?

This book is one of the most beautiful rosary meditation books I have ever found. It takes a very difficult but necessary aspect of life: the need for inner healing, and it gives amazing yet profoundly simple ways to pray about it in your own life. I think that anyone will find this book an amazing way to deepen their experience of the rosary and find inner healing even if you don't think you need it.
