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 December 11th we held two worship services, in the morning our Choir led us with a cantata and at our evening love feast our preacher was the Rev. Jonathan Gaylord and he preached from the gospels on the Birth of Christ.
