The Glorious Mysteries: Illuminated by Sixty Works of Sacred Art illustrates the glorious mysteries of the rosary in sixty works of sacred art, one for each bead, to help readers meditate on each mystery as they pray the rosary. Each two-page spread includes a work of art on one page, and the words of the appropriate prayer on the opposite page; a row of beads at the bottom of the page helps track progress through each decade. Each decade of the rosary opens with a beautiful Scripture-based introduction to one of the glorious mysteries (the Resurrection, the Ascension, the Descent of the Holy Spirit, the Assumption, and the Coronation) as well as suggested prayer intentions. The rhythm of The Glorious Mysteries makes it perfect for kids just learning to pray the rosary. Younger children can be taught to turn the page after each Our Father and Hail Mary, and older children can use the text on each page to help them lead the family rosary and memorize the prayers. Even adults will find in The Glorious Mysteries a fruitful way to pray the rosary more slowly and meditatively.
