Episode Details

As a gentle rain taps the roof of your camper and distant thunder rolls across the hills, you’ll drift off with a timeless tale of hope and quiet strength. The Great Stone Face by Nathaniel Hawthorne tells the story of Ernest, a thoughtful boy who grows up believing in a prophecy that someone great will come to his valley. With each new visitor, he wonders—but in the end, the truth about nobility may be simpler than it seems. Told softly through the hum of an old AM radio and surrounded by the calming storm sounds of nature, this episode will carry you peacefully into rest.
