Faithformed (formerly The Pursuit Podcast): A Podcast About Faith, Leadership, and Life in a Noisy Culture
Faithformed is where faith meets real life.
We live in a loud culture that is constantly trying to shape who you are. Faithformed, hosted by pastor and communicator Justin D. Belt, is the counter-narrative. This podcast creates a space for everyday believers and emerging leaders to pause the noise and pursue spiritual depth, emotional strength, and cultural clarity.
If you have ever felt behind the pace of your purpose, or wrestled with the tension between your calling and your current reality, this is your home. We move beyond surface-level conversations to explore how God builds the person before He builds the platform.
Each week, we dive into:
- Spiritual Formation: Moving from behavior modification to heart transformation.
- Leadership: Leading with integrity in a world that values hype.
- Calling & Purpose: Navigating the "waiting rooms" of life.
- Culture: Engaging the world without losing your soul.
Join us as we explore the intersection of faith, identity, and inner healing. If you want a faith that forms your life—not the other way around—welcome to Faithformed.

14. Faith in the Age of Noise: How to Hear God When Life Feels Loud
We are living at a pace our souls were never designed to carry. The constant notifications, endless scrolling, pressure to stay updated, and noise coming from every direction are draining people spiritually, emotionally, and mentally. If you have ever felt scattered, overwhelmed, or disconnected from God because life feels loud, this episode will speak straight to your heart.
In this episode, we dig into something every modern believer faces but few know how to handle: staying close to God in a world full of noise. You will explore why life feels louder than ever, how distraction weakens your spiritual life, and what Scripture says about stillness, silence, and protecting the moments where God speaks.
This episode unpacks Psalm 46, Psalm 23, Mark 1, Proverbs 1, and other key passages that show how Jesus Himself guarded quiet spaces, protected His peace, and refused to let noise shape His identity or His purpose. You will learn why constant input makes you reactive, how noise forms your inner world, and why stillness is not a suggestion for followers of Jesus but a necessity for spiritual health.
If you are tired of feeling burned out, spiritually foggy, emotionally overloaded, or unable to hear God clearly, this conversation will give you practical and doable steps to find clarity again. You will learn how to create daily moments of quiet, how to set boundaries with digital noise, how to strengthen your identity in God’s presence, and how to reclaim your focus in a culture built on distraction.
Faith grows in quiet places. Wisdom grows in stillness. Peace grows when you stop letting noise lead your life.
Tune in and learn how to lower the volume of the world so you can raise the volume of God’s voice.
Perfect for listeners hungry for spiritual growth, soul clarity, biblical wisdom, and a deeper walk with Jesus in the middle of real life.
