Praying the rosary is a popular practice in Catholicism. Yet no such ritual existed in Christianity for over a thousand years. Is it a correct, divinely-revealed method of prayer, or are there reasons to question its validity? When I was a Catholic, I prayed the rosary hundreds of times, but I have not done so in over five decades. Why? There are five primary reasons that will be featured in this presentation. Important information.

There are nine primary supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit listed in Corinthians 12. However, according to Catholic theology, there are only seven gifts of the Holy Spirit—and the list is quite different, being drawn from Isaiah 11. Which one is biblical and correct? An important study.

Sukkot (the Feast of Tabernacles) is the last of seven Feasts that God instructed the Jews to celebrate annually during the Old Testament era. It is taking place this year from sundown on Friday, September 25 until nightfall on Friday, October 2, 2026. There are five main levels of interpretation to all the Feasts: historical, practical, symbolical, spiritual, and prophetical. As we visit every level, we will discover the genius of the Everlasting Father who often hides His mysteries in this intriguing, symbolic way.

Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) is the holiest day of the year for a devoted Jewish person. Israelites throughout the world just participated in its call to repentance (from nightfall on Sunday, September 20, to sundown on Monday, September 21, 2026). How was it celebrated in ancient times and what is the deep symbolism concerning the Messiah that the traditional practices convey? How does it lead up to the next Feast of the Lord in the Jewish calendar (Sukkot / The Feast of Tabernacles)? This is deeply meaningful biblical revelation!

Did you know that new agers, witches, pagans, and promoters of the Law of Attraction often refer to themselves as “lightworkers”? What does that term mean? Is it good or bad? Surprisingly, certain well-known people in Hollywood, who claim to be followers of Jesus, also call themselves “lightworkers,” but their new age connections are obvious. This episode will sharpen your discernment.

Universal reconciliation is the concept that everything and everyone will ultimately be reconciled to God. The Scripture declares “the mystery” of God’s will is to finally “gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth”? (Eph. 1:9-10) Does that mean literally everything, including all sinners, even Satan and all his fallen angels, will finally be restored to a right relationship with God? This is a challenging and controversial subject that needs to be examined.

The Catholic practice of praying the rosary traces back to a priest named Dominic. In 1208 A.D., he claimed to receive a vision of Mary directing him to use it as a spiritual weapon. Then in the fifteenth century, a Dominican friar named Alanus de Rupe alleged that Mary communicated 15 promises for those who pray the rosary, some of which are very profound. Are these “promises” a blessed spiritual reality or the perpetration of a false hope?
