Stories I Love to Tell

That Give Us Hope, Help Us Do Hard Things, and Bring Us Back Together Again

De: Dick Foth

Narrado por: Dick Foth, Mark Batterson

Dick Foth can’t stop telling stories. He's been making sense of life through story since he first realized words could become sentences. Now, after eight decades, friends have finally convinced Foth to record the stories he loves to tell in the way he loves to tell them: to a live audience. Stories I Love to Tell became a reality one evening at the Capital Turnaround in Washington, D.C.—a setting for some of Foth’s greatest adventures. And now you are invited into the audience, to find reasons for hope, courage to face hard things, and stories that bring us back together. Our brains are wired for and by story. Memories live in stories; relationships flourish there; identity is shaped there. Values ripen, and belonging is found across generations—around campfires and dinner tables—when moments turn into stories.

Why listen to someone else’s stories? If it’s true that every human being somehow reflects God—and Foth believes it is—then maybe stories are the mirrors between every family, tribe, and person on planet Earth. In other words, it’s our stories that give our relationships a chance.Foth especially loves childhood stories, “because when I tell a story from my childhood, it reveals who I am. It is the lens through which I see my world.” As you listen to Stories I Love to Tell, you will see your own world more clearly. You will find yourself thinking, dreaming, and even feeling like a child again. There will be greater heroes to follow, deeper joys to discover, and even more of yourself to see. Foth’s low, kind, and rumbling voice constantly reminds us of the people who care for us, cheer us on, and—almost without our knowing it—become the heroes of the stories we, too, will love to tell. Enjoy!

Incredible Book

Pastor Foth could be the nations Grandpa, his stories have a way of drawing your attention, grasping your heart and planting seeds of growth. I highly recommend this book.

Foth is a secret superhero!

This collection is replete with shorter stories all telling Foth’s glory story! He’d never toot his own horn. However, in tooting the horn in honor of others, we get a sneak peek at his superhero cape!

Just love Dick's storires

Dick is and has been one of our favorite story tellers. We love listening to him and are always disappointed when the story time ends. He brings a lot of broad perspective to the subjects he talks about and leaves you more enlightened and more importantly, encouraged.

Compelling stories, well produced!

Dick Foth has an incredible way of capturing your attention and drawing you in with his story telling. This is a great listen that will inspire you and challenge you to walk closer with God and people.

Foth is the best

Incredible collection of stories by one of the best storytellers I've ever heard. If you are fortunate enough to hear Dick Foth speak in person (as I have many times), you'll invariably come away feeling loved, inspired, and full of hope. If not, listening to this audiobook is the next best thing.
