Reimagining the Examen

Reimagining the Examen offers a unique prayer experience that’s tailored to your needs and mood. Each Examen, based on St. Ignatius’s 500-year-old prayer, guides you through a stimulating reflection on your day, helping you invite God into your nitty-gritty. Choose an Examen that matches your current state of being, or pray that day’s scheduled reflection.

Reimagining the Examen, created by Loyola Press, is based on Mark Thibodeaux, SJ’s best-selling book, “Reimagining the Ignatian Examen,” which offers flexible and adaptable versions of the Examen. Begin the app experience today to invite grace, gratitude, and insight into your daily life.

What is the Examen?
St. Ignatius of Loyola created the Examen to be a very short prayer that can be prayed at any time. In the Examen, we review our recent past to find God and his blessings in our daily life. Ignatius would say that the Examen should be the most important moment of our day, because this moment affects every other moment.

How Do I Pray the Examen?
There are five simple steps to the Examen, which this app leads you through:
1. Relish the moments that went well and all of the gifts you have today.
2. Request that the Spirit lead you through your review of the day.
3. Review your day.
4. Repent of any mistakes or failures.
5. Resolve, in concrete ways, to live tomorrow well. ====== I absolutely love using the Reimagining the Examen app for my daily prayer reflection. The unique experience it offers, tailored to my specific needs and mood, really sets it apart from other prayer apps I’ve used in the past. I appreciate that each Examen is based on St. Ignatius’s 500-year-old prayer, as it adds a sense of tradition and depth to my prayer time. I can choose an Examen that matches how I’m feeling that day or follow the scheduled reflection for the day. The app is based on Mark Thibodeaux, SJ’s book “Reimagining the Ignatian Examen,” which provides flexible and adaptable versions of the Examen. This allows me to customize my prayer experience to suit my personal preferences and spiritual journey. Praying the Examen has become an essential part of my day, thanks to this app. I love how it helps me invite God into the nitty-gritty details of my life and guides me to find grace, gratitude, and insight in my daily experiences. Overall, I highly recommend the Reimagining the Examen app to anyone looking to deepen their prayer life and connect with God in a more meaningful way. It has truly enriched my spiritual practice and brought me closer to God in a tangible and impactful manner.
