Stories Worth Hearing
Remarkable people, hard-won wisdom, and the good in every story By Jonathan Quick
Length5h 45m
About this audiobook
A pastor who lost everything and rebuilt from nothing. A teenager paralyzed from the neck down who willed his body to move again. A festival founder who walked out of prison and straight back into the arena. A president who left Wall Street to serve his people. A salesman who turned $100 into $5.5 million in ninety days.
These aren't characters. They're real people — and every one of them sat across from Jonathan Quick and told him the truth about their life.
*Stories Worth Hearing* is twenty-three of those conversations transformed into chapters, each one mining the hard-won wisdom beneath the story and distilling it into a single principle you can carry into your own work and life.
Whether you're building a business, clawing back from a setback, or figuring out what you're made of — this book was written for you.
Beneath every story runs one quiet, radical idea: there is good in every person, and a lesson in every life.
Find the good.
