In this podcast, Fr. Peter Armenio reflects on the five sorrowful mysteries to help us slow down and go deeper as we pray each decade of the Holy Rosary. St. Josemaria explains: "As we draw closer during this Holy Week to the suffering of Jesus Christ, let us ask the Blessed Virgin Mary to enable us, like her, to keep all these things in our minds and ponder over them in our hearts” (Friends of God, no. 126).

Each mystery is time marked below:
0:00 First Mystery: The Agony in the Garden
5:10 Second Mystery: The Scourging at the Pillar
8:51 Third Mystery: The Crowning of Thorns
13:18 Fourth Mystery: The Carrying of the Cross
17:15 Fifth Mystery: The Crucifixion
