“Whitespace is soul grace. Bonnie Gray ushers weary women into the real possibility.”

“Women need this message. If you want to hear Jesus speak more tenderly to your soul than ever before, this is the book for you. I love Bonnie’s honest and unassuming voice. I will be recommending this message to many friends.”

“We live in a culture that brags and boasts about being busy. Whitespace is an important concept and Bonnie has captured it perfectly. If you’re exhausted with being exhausted, read this book. If you feel too busy to read this book, then that’s probably the best sign of all that you need it.”

“If you’ve ever been hurt and needed healing, if you’ve ever been afraid and needed courage, if you’ve ever been weary and needed room to breathe, then Bonnie Gray is the guide you’ve been looking for as you journey with Jesus to a new place of peace and freedom in your life.”

So many days end with the word exhausted! With soul-stirring insights, thought-provoking questions and biblical encouragement, Bonnie Gray helps us see our deep need for spiritual whitespace and offers practical ways to find it in the midst of our everyday lives. “Finding Spiritual Whitespace”creates a place for my heart to breathe and couldn’t have come at a more perfect time!

“Bonnie’s story captured me from the first chapter–she is an immensely powerful writer with a gift for taking her reader on a journey of experience. I felt like she was giving me permission to seek real, honest answers about my own walk through depression. Her story about loss, life, and love is worth its telling and I’m glad she told it.”

“Bonnie’s journey toward surrender led her heart from brokenness to beauty. Her words are bold, passionate, and life-giving on every page. May we all embrace the kind of rest that heals and restores.”

“Bonnie’s courage, heart, and determination to share her struggle are inspiring to me. To look back, gather pieces of what seemed unredeemable, and truly surrender them to the Lord is one of the hardest and most God-honoring things we can do in this life, and Bonnie does it beautifully.”

“Bonnie’s story is a moving example of what God can do with our toughest struggles if we give him access to our hearts and minds. It also provides insightful exercises that will help you with whatever you are struggling with.”

“I just adore Bonnie’s heart and her vulnerability as she allows us into her pain-filled, hope-filled story. Her willingness to open wide in order to help and encourage her sisters to find rest and spiritual ‘whitespace’ is brave and beautiful. If you’ve been looking for rest and you could use some practical ideas for finding spiritual whitespace, this book is for you.”
About The Book
Starred review praise from Publisher’s Weekly —
““[Gray] offers intriguing insights into scripture and on how God views his flawed but beloved creations…

Move beyond Surviving to a Rejuvenating Place of Soul Rest
How many of us find ourselves running on empty with no time for rest, no time for ourselves, no time for God?
Bonnie Gray knows what that’s like. On the brink of fulfilling a lifelong dream, Bonnie’s plans shattered into a journey through painful memories and anxiety. In her search for answers, she made an important discovery: we all need spiritual whitespace.
Whitespace. It’s the space on a page left unmarked. Whitespace makes art beautiful. It gives the eye a place to rest. Without it, clutter takes over. Just as beautiful art needs whitespace, our souls need spiritual whitespace — a place to rest in order to find balance and beauty.
With heartbreaking honesty, Bonnie guides you to discover a better story for yourself, one that feeds your soul and makes room for rest. Infused with biblical encouragement and thought-provoking prompts, this book shows us how to create space in the everyday for God, refreshment, and faith—right in the midst of our stress-frayed lives.

Take the Journey
Every Thursday on my blog Faith Barista, I host a gathering of kindreds who enjoy taking time to slow down, feed their soul and write. Some of us write on our blogs, others journal on paper.
We link up on Thursday to share our discoveries, swap stories and encourage each other. Add your voice. As is.
We capture our whitespace moments and share them on Instgram and Twitter. To visually inspire each other with ideas to enjoy soulful, restful moments.
Take the journey together. Breathe. Let’s be kindreds.
