You are opening yourself up to both yourself and God. There is not a grade in examen, nor is there a grade in any other spiritual practice. Various questions can be helpful in the examen practice. Below is one way of practicing examen. The hopes are awareness and attending The practice requires permission and welcome • The practice begins with permission. In examen, you give God permission to show you parts of yourself that are hidden or harder to see. You also welcome and allow parts of yourself to be seen by God and yourself. • This is done by reflecting on and responding to a series of questions. As you do this awareness of those parts of you starts to emerge. • Then, you permit God again to attend to what came up. Your work here is to welcome what you can and allow God to attend to you. • Repeat daily for 7-10 days, giving yourself time to notice and explore what you see. Examen Questions: What do I find myself grateful for today? What am I grieving today? Where do I sense God’s nearness to my grief? Where do I sense God’s distance from my grief? How has God been generous with me lately? How is God calling me to be generous today? Prayer: After responding to these questions, allow God to attend to you through your responses and what is coming up in you. Tell God thank you after a few minutes or however long you need.   visit laurabmurray.com to learn more!   TODAY's INTRO Baby Come Back, Player (RSO, 1977) John Wick (Summit Entertainment, 2014) Without Me, Eminem (Shady-Aftermath, 2002) Home, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros (Rough Trade, 2010) The Sandlot (20th Century Fox, 1993)

Its Q&A time on The Enneagram Journey! Suzanne and Joel sat down to record today's episode at The Micah Center and decided at the last moment to turn on the camera. Having the camera on contributed to the conversation about seeing a therapist and accountability, and the show just takes off from there.

Enneagram 6s and Trust Are 6s the most controlling personality? A 4 and 5 parenting adult children A great Chuck Knoblauch joke that Suzanne talked over aaaaand more!

In this insightful discussion, Alex Reegan, an Enneagram type 8, and Darnell Young, an Enneagram type 1, explore thought-provoking topics about relationships and communication. They debate the significance of the term 'trigger' in today's dialogue. Should the goal be to be right or maintain a relationship? The conversation also touches on emotional vulnerability, personal identity reflected in tattoos, and navigating social dynamics. Listeners are inspired to reflect on their own experiences and consider future cohort opportunities!

Meet The Justice Doula, Micky ScottBey Jones!
