Listener Reviews

Before the Noise
I love this daily online devotional. Chad breaks down scripture so well - you see things which have not previously been brought to light. He explains scripture so well, which I have not experienced in past study of the Bible.Practical steps help guide you to follow God in a meaningful, actionable way. I look forward to the daily studies (Monday through Friday).
Great time of devotion & spiritual growth
Chad, thank you for allowing God to use you in such a powerful way each day! We look forward to every morning, starting the day with your biblical worldview and sharing of scripture with great insight! Lord bless you and thank you for continuing this labor of love for those of us that share in this growing community! Great job! Love your work, love your heart
BLESSED
I enjoy waking up to the podcasts. Chad ,you make the Bible easier to understand. I consider this a family of Christians who are going through hard times just like I am. Thank you so much for doing these.
Feeling Beautiful to be a Christian
I love the podcast because it starts my day out right. I love to just be still and listen to Chad talk about the scriptures because I find it calming. I know God is right here with me. I have family members Im trying to reach, but I realize I have already planted the seed. Now I will just pray and let God do the rest. In the end it is up to each of them to choose. I have already made my decision and I feel beautiful, calm, and relaxed about my decision. God is always with me and I love it. Thank you, Chad, for all you do.
Quiet Time
On the west coast this show is streamed live at 5am. it literally comes before the noise, before any noise. The hum of the fridge is just part backdrop left over from the night. Centering myself firmly in the light of God's grace is this little show, coming from, for me, an unlikely source. I've seen The Chad Prather Show and never thought all that much of his social commentary, but I clicked because Christian content is what I'm looking for. I looked for, and I found a foundation for my day. I find myself on Saturday mornings disappointed that I don't have Chad leading with a consistent Bible study routine, and the Youtube chat section with wonderful, God fearing souls sharing with, and praying for, one another. The show is great, I learned that he comes from a theological background, giving credence to his words. But the chat feels like a community, no, like a family. With elders and young alike offering community and support for fellow Christians as we struggle against a society that hates us. I thank the Show for bringing me to the Chat.
Thank you Chad
I have been walking with Chad and the Before the Noise family for 3 short weeks now and it has been something that I look forward to every morning. His devotion to "his bible time" has been an amazing experience for me. I appreciate him, his devotion and his time so much! :) Thank you, Chad!
Thank you
You are such a blessing. Thank you for all your hard work. It is nice for you sharing your life story. You do a awesome job. Always comes from your heart. God Bless you

Only way to start the day
I have been listening since DAY 1 Since Chad's not on, on the weekends, I go back and relisten to the older ones. Although...they NEVER get old.
Chad knows how to break it down!
Despite regular church attendance, i feel like I often miss the point that is being made. My mind wanders from my to do list to planning my next vacation to work aggravations instead of listening. Chad has a way to make the scripture come alive and he makes it very digestable for my short attention span! In the past I have printed several of his encouraging Facebook posts when the really hit my heart and seem so relevant to what is happening in my life. Also - if you don't have Born for Meaning... get it now! While I have not experienced loss or grief recently, it is still beautifully written and helps me to know that I AM NOT ALONE! It's a great reminder that our Heavenly Father loves us and knows us personally. My copy is highlighted so I need to buy more copies to give away! THANK YOU Chad for sharing such important, meaningful content!
So grateful
Thank you for being obedient and for teaching us to also be obedient. I enjoy every minute of your anointed teaching. Thank you!
Very uplifted and enlightened
It is a joy to listen each morning. I commute 30 minutes everyday and this is very good. The time makes me think more deeply about the Lord and it inspires me me each day. God Bless
Chad On Point
Each and every podcast is on point! Chad does his research, reads and studies scripture and never disappoints!
Perfect start to a day
My title says it. It's a perfect way to begin the day. I've been here from the beginning and I miss it on the weekends. The honest examination and explanation of God's Word is so appreciated. I've told all my friends about the different ways your podcast can be viewed. You and God are changing lives by connecting and reconnecting us to God's Word. Thank you, Chad, for sharing with us your passion and purpose. God bless you!
Praise/Grattitude
I started listening to Chad on Dear America. His devotion to God along with Graham and Todd has brought me back to church and my wife to church. I try to listen every morning as long as I have signal. I never listened to podcasts till a little over a year ago and Chad along with Dear America full my day while at work. Thank you Chad for sharing your devotional with us. God Bless you and keep you safe
Finding a path to Jesus.
I have spent many years walking the edges of my faith and what I thought having faith in Jesus was supposed to be. Never really finding the connection part of me cried out for. I knew of Chad from his various other shows and always enjoyed when he spoke of faith. Then he started Before The Noise and I haven't missed an episode. Chad has explained Jesus and the Bible in a way that truly resonates with me and I look forward to hearing more each day. I am truly grateful for finally finding a path to knowing our Lord and Savior more intimately. Thank you Chad.

Growing Together
I am so thankful to have found this podcast on YouTube. I have been a Christian for many years but have struggled to understand just how it is supposed to work. I have learned a lot about my own faith from listening to him and his teachings. I have been able to learn how to be more grounded in my own faith. I believe that the way he talks me through the scriptures helps me understand more deeply than ever about what my relationship with Jesus Christ is supposed to be. I have shared his podcast with family members that are also Christian and have struggled with attending churches, that left them disheartened by the messages they received, because it was incomplete. The pastors were very selective about the scriptures that they would share, as not to be offensive to their congregation trying to keep them comfortable. The messages that Chad brings are not only about comfort but also the conviction that feels more authentic. Thank you for sharing your devotionals, my family and I are learning so much from each day. We are all growing our own connection with Jesus Christ through your teachings and studies.
SUCH A GODSEND!
Loved Chad's Church, loving Before the Noise even more! Awake in CA at 7 am , reach for the remote before I even get out of bed just to spend the next hour with you and the Lord (along with the squirrels and peacocks in my back yard). What a way to start the day! God Bless you Chad and thank you for allowing us to join your beautiful journey, I have to believe you were very effective as a Pastor because of your passion and now your ability to bring animated life to God's Word.I've been with you since the days of the Blaze and my how this young man has grown! It's beautiful to watch and witness. Surely those of us following you appreciate your dedication, love and time each day. Thank you again.
Best Podcast Out There!!
I absolutely look forward to each weekday morning at 8:00am so that I can absorb God's word, through Chad's words.Although my faith is not new, it has certainly had its ebbs and flows. I found myself becoming more like the world, than the WORD. Chad has brought me back to God's truths, for such a time as this.THANK YOU Chad!
Thank You !
After years and years of trying to find a morning devotion routine that I can stick with, I finally found it in Before the Noise. My husband knows not to disturb me between 8-9am; although he will sometimes stop and listen too. I've studied the book of John dozens of times, but your teaching has given me so many insights that I've missed in the past. Thank You!I'm looking forward to seeing where you take us next!God Bless you Chad!

Such a Blessing!
I have been listening to the podcasts on Spotify while I drive to work each morning. It is such a blessing to be immersed in the Word before starting my workday. I really love the way Chad explains the scriptures. His insights are really eye opening and I have rarely heard a message given with such passion, conviction and love. Thank you for this devotional ministry!
