The Noise
Audit

Ten honest questions to help you hear what's really drowning out God's voice, and take one step toward quiet.

5 minutes 10 questions Free

God hasn't gone quiet.
But life has gotten loud.

Most of the women I work with are not struggling to believe in God. They're struggling to hear Him in the middle of a very full life.

This audit isn't about guilt, and it isn't a test you can fail. It's about awareness. Once you know where your noise is coming from, you can do something about it.

Work through each question honestly. There are no right answers.

The Audit

Rate each statement from 1 to 3. Be honest. There's no one watching.

A
The Pace of Life
Busyness and margin
BusynessMy days are so full that stillness feels impossible, or even a little uncomfortable.
Constant ConnectivityNotifications, messages, and screens fill most of my margins, including my quiet mornings.
B
The Weight You Carry
Anxiety, worry and mental load
Anxiety and WorryMy mind regularly runs ahead to what could go wrong, before I've had a chance to pray about it.
Mental LoadEven when my body is still, my mind is working through lists, responsibilities, and unfinished things.
C
What Other People Think
Comparison and people-pleasing
ComparisonI frequently measure where I am against where others seem to be, spiritually or otherwise.
People-PleasingI often act on what people need from me before I've asked God what He wants for me.
D
Your Inner World
Doubt, shame and old wounds
DoubtI sometimes wonder whether God still speaks to people like me, or whether I'm able to hear Him.
Shame or UnworthinessThere's a quiet voice that says I need to be more put-together before God will speak clearly to me.
E
Your Spiritual Life
Practice and expectation
Inconsistent PracticeMy prayer and Scripture time tends to happen in gaps rather than as a held, regular space.
Low ExpectationI show up to prayer, but if I'm honest, I'm not really expecting God to say something specific to me.

What comes next

Ready to quiet
the noise for good?

Naming your noise is the first step. The next one is learning to quiet it, not through more discipline or a better morning routine, but through a whole-person practice of tuning in to God's voice in your ordinary life.

Hearing God's Voice is a 12-week cohort for Christian women who are done settling for a one-sided conversation with God. Small group. Deep practice. Real change.

About

Kerry Stewart

Prophetic pastor, online educator
Cape Town, South Africa

I help Christian women step into whole-woman freedom: body, soul, and spirit. I've spent years working with women who love God deeply but feel like they've lost the signal somewhere along the way.

The Noise Audit came out of a pattern I kept seeing: women who weren't disconnected from God, just buried under so much life that His voice had become the hardest one to hear. You don't need more faith. You need less noise.

One more thing

I made something for your score.

I wrote a short reflection for women in the your range. It's not long, but it's honest. Where should I send it?
