We begin not by fixing anything, but by telling the truth about where your faith actually is.
This is the starting line. There are no right answers here and nothing you write is wrong. The only thing this step asks of you is honesty — with yourself, and with God. Take your time.
Work through it at your own pace. Your answers save automatically on this device, so you can come back anytime. When you’re ready, use Save / Print to keep a copy, or Send to Ash if you’d like her eyes on it.

Part One
Where your faith is right now
Before we look back, let’s name where you are today. Don’t polish it. Just tell the truth about this moment.
Part Two
Common symptoms of a broken or strained faith
Read through these slowly. Tap the ones that feel familiar. There is no shame in any of them — noticing is the first step toward healing.
Part Three
Where your faith used to be
Think back to a time your faith felt different — maybe stronger, simpler, or more alive. Or maybe it never felt safe. Both are okay to name.
Before you close
What you’re noticing
You just did brave work — you told the truth about where you are. That’s where healing starts.
There’s no rushing this. You showed up, and that matters. I’ll meet you in the next step. — Ash

Ash Dion
Hi, I'm Ash. Mom of two, wife, and completely obsessed with Jesus. I walked away from God after watching my son suffer. At 2am in my son's hospital bed years later, I went to God out of desperation and He showed me the truth of who He is. Now, I am sharing that truth with you.
