What happens when a story is rejected over 80 times but refuses to stay silent?
In this episode of Infinite Dialogues with Oti, I sit down with Mark Charles Powers author, minister, musician, and speaker to explore the courage it takes to tell difficult stories, the role of faith in tragedy, and why hope remains essential even in life’s darkest moments.
At the age of 70, Mark published his first novel, His Eyes, after years of rejection from traditional publishers. Inspired by the devastating impact of gun violence on families, the novel explores grief, bullying, addiction, forgiveness, and the hope that can emerge from unimaginable loss.
