A Journey of Singular Courage by a True Spiritual Master
When financial disaster forces Mark David Gerson out of his Portland home with everything he owns packed into the back of his car, he launches an open-ended road odyssey that will carry him from the Pacific to the Mississippi and back again, never knowing from one day to the next whether he can muster the faith to keep going.
"If they accomplish nothing else, I hope these writings reassure at least one of you that you're not alone, that you needn't be ashamed of feeling scared, that you needn't be afraid to acknowledge your fear, and that your vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness...that it's a sacred gift to the world, not a liability."
"I don't know anyone who has regularly risked more, given up more, to be a writer."
- Will Reichard, author of Evertime
Mark David Gerson is not only a master of the word, but also a master of the heart.
- Joan Cerio, author of Heartwired to Heaven: Unlocking the Power of the Creative Heart
