Spiritual Stocktake Guide

Spiritual Stocktake Guide

A 60-minute honest inventory across body, soul, spirit, and relationships.

Purpose: This is the Rise Crew Stocktake module in guide form. Use it quarterly, at New Year, after a major life event, or whenever you feel "off course" but can't name why.

Posture: Grace, not grades. You are taking inventory, not passing an exam.

Time needed: 60 minutes (or split across 4 evenings of 15 minutes)


Before You Begin

  • Find a quiet space. Phone on silent.
  • Have a journal or print this guide.
  • Pray: "God, show me truth. Give me courage to see it and grace to respond."

Rate each area 1–10 (1 = crisis, 10 = thriving). Then answer the prompts.


1. Spiritual Life

Score (1-10): ___

Prompts:

  • How consistent is my connection with God (prayer, scripture, worship, solitude)?
  • Am I growing, maintaining, or drifting?
  • Do I sense God's presence — or mainly guilt about absence?
  • What spiritual discipline has slipped? What has strengthened?
  • Is there unconfessed sin, unforgiveness, or unresolved doubt I'm avoiding?

2. Emotional & Mental Health

Score (1-10): ___

Prompts:

  • What emotion has dominated the last 30 days?
  • Am I anxious, numb, angry, sad, or stable?
  • Who knows the truth about how I'm doing?
  • Am I using unhealthy coping (scrolling, food, isolation, performance, substances)?
  • Do I need professional support? (Therapy/counselling is wisdom, not weakness.)

Score (1-10): ___

  • Is my work aligned with my gifts — or just paying bills?
  • Am I leading from sonship or from insecurity?
