In Human Frailty, Divine Redemption: The Theology and Practice of the Examen, Marko Rupnik explains how the Ignatian practice of the examen leads us to listen to the Spirit.
Taking a fresh look at the daily examination of conscience as a spiritual art of prayer and discernment, he explores some of the theological truths that are the basis for this prayer:
-Our call to union with Christ
-The place of memory in life-giving relationships
-The effect of sin and sinfulness on relationships
-The power of the redemption in our life
-Union with the three Persons of the Trinity
-Our need to discover that we are loved
He describes this examination of conscience as listening to our heart, as a conversation with God, and as contemplation. Explaining the multiple benefits of this prayer for growing in self-knowledge, in relationship with God, and in discernment, the examen is depicted as an irreplaceable means to nurture a deeper spiritual life. It helps us become aware of how the life and love of God dwell within us.
After suggesting a method for making the examen, Rupnik concludes by addressing the situation of those who have not had a living experience of God, wisely guiding them in this prayer.

Store description
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
