The Gray Space
Welcome to The Gray Space with Taryn and Julie!
We’re two friends who’ve teamed up to dive into faith-based conversations that explore life’s gray areas—those messy, complex spaces where healing, growth, and faith collide. Through personal stories, heartfelt discussions, and a deep focus on God’s Word, we aim to challenge and encourage you to grow in your walk with the Lord.
Our mission is simple: to see the Kingdom expand and to help people develop a more intimate, authentic relationship with God. Join us as we navigate life’s complexities together, leaning into grace and truth every step of the way. Let’s grow, heal, and walk closer with the Lord—together.
If you've been following along our journey for a while, yes, we've rebranded! We were previously The Pursuit of Me and have rebranded as The Gray Space.
Thank you for being here and for following along! If you've enjoyed listening, we'd love to hear from you!
