Stories I Love to Tell
That Give Us Hope, Help Us Do Hard Things, and Bring Us Back Together Again
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. 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.
Foth and Friends Podcast
Every person is a story. Stories that cross lines and generations. Lenses to see the world in a different way. God’s Story is the big canvas. And that’s what these conversations are about.

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 Foth tell stories, 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!
