概要

Award-winning author and master storyteller Mark David Gerson shares stories that entertain and inspire, stories that remind us of our shared humanity.

We are all storytellers. Even when we don’t realize we’re doing it, we express ourselves in story. It’s one of the things that connects us, that make us human.

Long before our cave-dwelling ancestors developed language, they were carving their stories into cliff walls and grunting them around the fire. Long before we could form recognizable words, our infant gurgles told the stories of our day.

Stories not only communicate our lives, they give meaning to our lives. That’s as true of the stories we hear as it is of the stories we tell.

That’s why I created Stories & Reflections: to share some of the stories that matter to me. Because if they matter to me, chances are they will also matter to you.

That’s the thing about stories: However personal they might be on the surface, whenever they’re shared from the heart, they are always universal.

I’ve written more than two dozen books, both fiction and nonfiction, and I’ve spent decades exploring the stories that shape our lives. On this podcast, I tell a mix of stories. Some are mine — real or imagined. Some could be yours.

But whatever I share, it’s always about me and about you and about what it feels like to be us…about what it feels like to be human in a complicated world.

My stories may not always begin with the words “once upon a time.” But they are no less magical. Stories always are.

So hit the play button, and let’s step into that magic together.

  • 013 – I Choose to Live
    2026/03/31
    "On this 42nd anniversary of my mother’s death, I’ve been thinking less about the choices she would have wanted me to have made before cancer focused her mind: choices for safety, for certainty. Instead, I’ve been thinking about the choice she would want me to make today, from wherever her spirit is now: the choice for life."

  • 012 – Don't Give Up!
    2026/03/24
    "Even in the midst of my all frustrations and crises of faith, even through all those many, many times when I have wanted to give up – or, for a few moments or a few weeks, have given up – that intuitive knowingness, that still, small voice of infinite wisdom we all carry has never, ever steered me wrong or let me down. Why would it start now?"

  • 011 – Just Say Yes!
    2026/03/17
    “Embrace your strengths, even the ones that scare you. Especially the ones that scare you. Embrace your power, even if it scares you. Even if it scares others. Especially if it scares you or others. And if you find yourself saying 'no' to people and opportunities out of fear, as I’ve too often done in the past, feel that fear. Then pass through it to the other side, where your destiny awaits. Whatever that destiny is, it’s more wondrous than anything you could possible imagine. So…just say yes!”
