About this listen

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!

Joy and Inspiration! 10/10 recommend

"Why would I want to be in a category? I'm an individual created by the most high God and if you take time to hear my story we could be friends."

Listening to people's stories is what helps us know them and that is exactly what Dick Foth has done with his life. We see that so well through these stories he tells. His love for people and for story is evident in this 2 hour audiobook. He is funny, inspiring and has the ability to make you feel like you're just sitting in his living room hanging out. I have had the privilege of hearing many of these stories before but I would listen to them over and over (and probably will). Foth's example to love people well is one I will always aspire too!

Inspiring, funny, emotional

Dick Foth is perhaps my favorite speaker of all time. As intelligent and accomplished as he is, there is a rich humility and folksy charm he possesses that is genuine and rare. Listening to him took me back decades when I was blessed to regularly hear him speak. He makes the dying art of storytelling seem so easy, but also demonstrates the significance of storytelling. One need not be as gifted as he is, but we all need to learn to ask good questions and listen to others in order to develop relationships, to learn, and to grow. I see the tenderness of God when I listen to these stories.
