Acerca de esta escucha
Christian Book Award - Finalist 2022 (print)!!
This is the story of God whispering, “What no one wants, I cherish.”
The daughter of a mail-order bride and a busboy from San Francisco’s Chinatown, Bonnie Gray grew up never truly feeling beautiful or beloved. As an adult, she built her life to look pleasant and ordinary, with a wonderful husband, two amazing boys, and a thriving career. But despite these blessings, she still felt the tugging emptiness of a missing piece.
At 39, a long-forgotten birth certificate in an old file cabinet sparked a curiosity Bonnie couldn’t ignore. Determined to uncover her family’s secrets and understand the home she was born into, Bonnie embarked on a quest that would leave her forever changed. Returning to the culture, places, and stories that shaped her, her search led her to soul-shaking discoveries about her identity, human kindness and what it truly means to belong.
The profoundly moving journey of learning to embrace our true worth, Sweet Like Jasmine celebrates how God uses our unique and broken stories to create a beautiful mosaic of His love, one life at a time.

Life prepares us for a lot of things. Until it doesn't. Because at some point we'll find ourselves stuck at the crossroads of what was and what is yet to be. Yet this in-between space doesn't have to be one of fear, frustration, uncertainty, and sleepless nights. Bestselling author and Proverbs 31 speaker Nicki Koziarz knows well the vulnerable and lost feelings of transition seasons. Digging into the life of Moses and sharing from her own struggles and successes, she gives you a practical biblical plan to discover—and thrive—right where you are.

In this hustling, image-forward age of opportunity, we feel more anxious than ever. Despite all the affirming memes and self-reflections that dominate social media feeds, approval and worth often seem assigned to what we do rather than who we are. And we end up constantly feeling like we’re behind, lacking, and failing - at home, at work, with friends, with God.

Joanna Gaines' new book, The Stories We Tell, invites us on an authentic and deeply vulnerable journey into her story—and helps shine a light on the beauty of our own—guiding us to release the weights that hold us back so we may live and share our story in truth. We've all dropped anchor in places that suited us for a time: a city, a perspective, a lie we mistook as truth. This book is an invitation to a kind of life where you know how to hold what you believe—about yourself and the quiet worlds behind the people you pass—with gracious and open hands.

Now more than ever, we're all weary from the loads we carry and the challenges we face. We have questions we cannot answer and problems we cannot solve. We'd hoped that life would be an invigorating adventure or an inspiring journey. We never expected to grow so tired so quickly. But Max teaches us that we can find fresh strength and purpose in the power of the Holy Spirit. The Bible makes more than a hundred references to the Holy Spirit, and Jesus says more about the Spirit than he does about the church, marriage, finances, and the future. But do we really know the Spirit?

The average person has 70,000 thoughts every day, and many of those thoughts trigger a corresponding emotion. No wonder so many of us often feel like we're controlled by our emotions. Our lives would be much improved is we controlled them. Joyce Meyer discusses the way that the brain processes and stores memories and thoughts, and then - emotion by emotion - she explains how we can manage our reactions to those emotions.

Inspired and thus authentically inspiring.
This story of one woman’s journey transcends culture boundaries. The author’s honest clarity beautifully carries all of our stories, like threads in a grand and beautiful tapestry, woven of the roughest twines to the finest silks, so effectively illustrating God’s omniscient, organic design for His beloved creation. Inspired and thus authenticity inspiring. Thank you for being ‘a little more honest than you were comfortable with.’ Your grace-filled example lends permission to walk alongside and follow suit. Well done Mrs. Gray!

Captivating grace filled story
Bonnie does a wonderful job performing and narrating. I cried as I listened to the painful way her mother treated her. I eventually saw myself in her story even though we have completely different stories. Her faith filled encouragement to readers is Christ in action. I’m so blessed to have listened to it and I absolutely loved the song she sings at the end of the book.

Wonderfully Satisfying
This book is a true experience. As i listened to the author’s sincere recounting of her history, I felt the shattering of her heart, the insecurity of her soul, and the wholeness she achieved , as she shared how all the pieces of her life story were put back together again. I truly love this book. Now I’m off to enjoy some Jasmine tea.

I enjoyed hearing this story right from the author and what happened to her. God is amazing because everything we go through in our past comes full circle to our lives today. Struggles and disfunction are a part of life.
