Examen Revisited
After a few weeks away, I’ve made space for Examen again. Here is the format I used today.
Opening Music to Ponder . . .
Redemption Song, Bob Marley, 1980.
Psalm 130
Reflecting – spend some time letting images, faces, and relationships, whatever, wash around your mind’s eye as you ponder the questions.
For what moments am I most grateful this week?
For what moments am I least grateful this week?
When did I give and receive the most love this week?
When did I give and receive the least love this week?
When did I feel most alive this week?
When did I feel life draining out of me this week?
When have I had the greatest sense of belonging to myself, to others, and to God?
Mark 5:21-43
Closing Music to Ponder . . .
In God’s Country, U2, 1987.
