Welcome to the Yadkin Examen. The Examen is a weekly prayer podcast. Every Monday we take a moment to reflect on our week past, give thanks to God, and seek strength for the day and week to come. We use reflection questions from different sources to help us seriously pray and review our own spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical lives. Each episode begins with an excerpt from Sunday's sermon and ends with the scripture text.

Reflection questions selected from John Wesley and the Holy Club

Am I self-conscious, self-pitying, or self-justifying?

Did the Bible live in me today?

Do I give it time to speak to me everyday?

Reflection questions from the sermon and scripture text

Why do you think the crowds were drawn to Jesus in Mark 1:29-39?

What does it mean to reframe our service in terms of Christ’s service?

What “If only…” is holding you back from fully living into the kingdom of God?
