The Examen had me take myself seriously, as I am, not as I wished I was or thought I could be someday if I worked hard enough. It might change things for you, too. The subject matter of the Examen is your life — specifically the day you have just lived through. The Examen likes the humdrum.
The Examen looks at your conscious experience. The ebb and flow of your moods and feelings are full of spiritual meaning. What do you think about while sitting in traffic or waiting in a long line at the grocery store?
I was surprised. But then, on reflection, the Examen made intuitive sense. If prayer is making a connection with God, it makes perfect sense to spend some time finding God in my conscious experience of daily life. Five hundred years ago, St. I told my friends about my discovery. She told me a story about discovering that something she remembered very vividly never happened at all.
She pointed out that we all filter our memories through our preconceptions and desires.

She thought the Examen sounded very self-centered. Good questions. He is here, not up there. This is the doctrine of the Incarnation — the fact that the God who created men and women is personally involved in their lives because he is human as well as divine.
A Simple, Life-changing Prayer : Jim Manney :
Personal is the key word. God is a community of three persons — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — and the relationship we have with God is a personal one as well. The word for it is friendship, says the Jesuit spiritual director William Barry. In fact, the mundane and the humdrum parts of our lives give depth and texture to the relationship with God. The Examen focuses on God as present in our human experience.
This is part of our relationship with God.

The other argument for the Examen is a practical one. This is what sold me. Here are several:. Where is God? Often God seemed remote. That changed when I started praying the Examen and found God present in my everyday experience. What do I pray about? I would grow tired of praying about the same things over and over.

This is the most insidious problem — the inclination to put on a good face when we pray. The Examen is a excellent way to be honest in prayer. Your list has reached the maximum number of items.

This is my second time reading the book, and I'm sure it won't be the last! Re-reading this helps keep my prayer fresh and ensures that I don't get too sloppy with what I'm doing.
Oct 24, Andrew rated it liked it. My pastor and I were having lunch together back in March. I was complaining — well, not really complaining, just talking because it's not an object of disappointment for me — about my lack of a personal spiritual life. There was a time in my life when I really enjoyed private expressions of faith like prayer and Bible study. For sure, part of the reason that I lost the habit of solitary prayer was that prayer served as an outlet for a kind of morbid self-inspection that I wasn't feeling so My pastor and I were having lunch together back in March.
For sure, part of the reason that I lost the habit of solitary prayer was that prayer served as an outlet for a kind of morbid self-inspection that I wasn't feeling so much any more. My pastor recommended that I try to ease back into prayer with a non-customary format of prayer, and specifically recommended the Examen. Logically, I knew the concept was simple and I could probably pick it up in 5 min, but nonetheless, I asked for him to recommend a resource, I ordered it from the bookstore, and I finally read it.
So now here we are, seven months later. Solid book, a masterclass in concision and helpfulness. I'm sure Manney's exploration of the format of the Examen which indeed isn't much more complex than the format ACTS, or Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication will be helpful for me in quieting my anxious thoughts about "not doing it right" and his brief words of encouragement will help counter my tendency to quit before I start. The capacity of a book to budge that is minimal. After reading The Story of Christianity: An Illustrated History of Years of the Christian Faith last month, which was my splendid, readable, and gorgeously illustrated introduction to the expansive history of the Christian church, I became a lot more interested in Benedict, Francis, and Ignatius.
