New Book by Central Coast Author Catherine Grace Invites Readers to Listen for the Voice of God in Everyday Life

True stories of faith, pastoral care, and the quiet miracles of everyday life.

Sydney NSW, 16th March 2026

Catherine Grace has written something quietly extraordinary. Gentle Whispers is a warm, deeply personal, and spiritually rich collection of true stories that asks one of the most searching questions a person of faith can ask: what if God has been speaking to you all along, and you simply have not been listening? It is a book that manages to be both intimate and universal, drawing on decades of lived experience to offer readers a gentle but compelling invitation to pay closer attention to the small, significant moments that so easily pass us by.

From that foundation, Catherine builds a book of eleven chapters, each anchored in a true story from her own life. A group of young girls lost on a bush mountain trail who turned to prayer in the dark and were found. A quiet prompting to knock on a neighbour's door that led to an unexpected and meaningful connection. Stories of love, loss, home, grief, waiting, and the profound experience of being truly heard. Each narrative opens outward into reflection, scripture, and an invitation for the reader to consider where those same whispers might be at work in their own circumstances.

What gives the book its particular warmth is Catherine's voice. She writes not as a theologian or a preacher, but as someone who has sat at many bedsides, held many hands, and spent years in chaplaincy and pastoral care visitation across hospitals and aged care homes. She knows how people carry their sorrow, their doubt, and their longing, and she writes with the kind of tenderness that only comes from genuine experience of walking alongside people in their most vulnerable moments. The result is a book that never lectures, but always encourages.

Target Audience

Gentle Whispers will speak to anyone who has ever wondered whether the small, unexpected moments of their life carry deeper meaning. It will resonate with readers of Christian devotional literature, those navigating grief or uncertainty, and anyone drawn to books that blend personal storytelling with spiritual reflection.  It is also a book for those on the outer edges of faith, people who are curious but cautious, who might find in its gentle, story-driven approach an easier entry point than more doctrinal or instructional writing.
