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. On March 19th our preacher was the Rev. Jonathan Gaylord and he preached from the Ephesians 5:8-14.

In March we are doing an Online Fund Drive to support our Online Ministries, like the Yadkin Examen and Yadkin Lectio. Any gift you give helps to show the impact that digital ministry is making on our community and world and helps us to continue  and expand our online offerings.
