A JOURNEY OF SINGULAR COURAGE BY A TRUE SPIRITUAL MASTER When financial disaster forces Mark David Gerson from his Portland home with everything he owns packed into the back of his car, he launches an open-ended odyssey that will carry him from the Pacific to the Mississippi and back, 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…is a sacred gift to the world, not a liability.”_ Author of more than 20 books whose readers span the globe, Mark David Gerson electrifies groups and individuals around the world with his inspiring stories and motivational talks and seminars. Mark David's books include critically acclaimed titles for writers, award-winning fiction and compelling memoirs. His screenplay adaptations of his _Legend of Q’ntana_ fantasy novels are on their way to theaters as a series of epic feature films. His popular _Sara Stories_ series are largely set in Montreal, his hometown. As a writing coach and “creativity catalyst,” Mark David works with an international roster of clients to help them get their stories onto the page and into the world with ease.
