A Reason for Hope Is Praying the Rosary Optional for A Catholic?
In this episode, Dr. David Hajduk gives his take on why, in order to be a faithful Christian, you must have a devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, offering a wealth of Biblical evidence. He also tackles the question of whether praying the Rosary can be considered "optional" for Catholics, once one considers the history of this prayer, its importance to Mary herself, and the teachings about Saints and Popes about it.
