Can I Ask You Something? - Lightkeeper Books

Audience Survey — Companion Frame (2026-07-31)

Before you begin. These are a few questions about prayer and where you are with God — it’s research, not crisis help. If you are currently in a very difficult place — if you’re thinking about harming yourself — please reach out to a real person right now. In the US, call or text 988. Anywhere in the world, findahelpline.com will point you to someone who will pick up.

Your answers are anonymous — I won’t know who wrote what, unless you choose to leave your email at the very end. Every question is optional, and there are no wrong answers: a good season is as useful an answer as a hard one.

How would you describe your walk with God right now?

Growing — something's opening up

Steady — quiet and consistent

Dry — going through the motions

Strained — wrestling, or feeling distant

Hard to say

What does time with God actually look like in an ordinary week?

However much or little you want to say — what actually happens, not what you wish happened. Optional.

When something is stirring in you — a decision, a struggle, a nudge you can't quite name — who do you talk to about it?

Check any.

I pray about it on my own

My spouse, or a close friend

My pastor or a church leader

A spiritual director, mentor, or coach

I journal

I ask ChatGPT or another AI

Honestly, no one

When are you most likely to want to pray, or to sit with something?

First thing in the morning

During the day

In the evening

The middle of the night

It varies

What helps you pay attention to God — and what gets in the way?

Optional.

Imagine something that walked alongside you — asked good questions, helped you notice what God might be doing, and remembered what you told it last time. What would make you trust it? What would make you not?

Optional.

I'd like to understand a few of these more deeply — just you and me, over email, at whatever pace works for you. If you'd be open to that, leave your email below.

Optional. Leaving it here connects your name to the answers above — leave it blank and they stay anonymous. I'll only use it to follow up with you about this, nothing else.
