Ep. 148: Finding Identity in a Culture of Loneliness, with Bonnie Gray

Growing up as an American-Chinese daughter of a mail-order bride and a busboy working in San Francisco’s Chinatown, Bonnie Gray has a story that will capture your attention and win your heart. In her Memoir, Sweet Like Jasmine, Bonnie shares her grown-up journey of revisiting her childhood memories, uncovering family secrets, and witnessing brokenness made beautiful. (She’s such a good writer!) In today’s interview, Bonnie and I talk about her amazing story, how she has shared the hard parts of her past with her sons, and how finding our identity in Christ is the key to peace and belonging for all of us. Bonnie is so much fun to talk to, and I appreciate her honesty, vulnerability, and strength.  Bonnie’s story is unique, but it is also our story!  One of loneliness, longing for love, and ultimately finding the greatest love and security only in a relationship with God.  I am so excited to share this interview with you! www.monicaswanson.com/episode-148 Podcast page (for all episodes) www.monicaswanson.com/podcast Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
