"The Art of Self-Examination"


Self-examination is a traditional Lenten discipline and something that many Christians practice every day.  I will talk about the benefits of taking time to review your day, as well as evaluating a season in your life.  We will learn about the Ignatian Examen, which was a daily prayer offered by Saint Ignatius that has been practiced by Christians for hundreds of years.  If you want to get a head start, search "Ignatian Prayer" or "Ignatian Examen."  Also check out this web site which includes some short videos made by students at St. Ignatius College Prep in San Francisco.   http://ignatianspirituality.com/ignatian-prayer/the-examen/
