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 jealous, impure, critical, irritable, touchy, or distrustful?

How do I spend my spare time?

Am I proud?

Reflection questions from the sermon and scripture text

Today we are doing this section of our reflection a little differently. Think of the last 2 times you spent money ask yourself these questions about those purchases. 

By spending that money was I acting like the person I want to be? Was I acting like a steward of God’s resources or was I acting like I own the place? 

Was that purchase supported or prohibited by scripture? Which Scripture? 

Can I offer that purchase/ spending to God? 

How would I feel if God brought those purchases up at my resurrection?
