The inspirational stories in this unique book about basketball by Dr. Noel White are about real people who came to realize that their life’s purpose must be about much more than athletics.
“Basketball is a marvelous game that teaches us many life values,” says Dr. White. “For many, it has become the conduit to a purposeful and meaningful life of compassion, dedicating themselves to a cause or lending a hand to people who need support and assistance.”
As important as teamwork, confidence and physical conditioning are, helping someone who is hurting, giving them strength, love, encouragement and positive support, enabling them to believe in themselves, are far more important. The touching stories in Inspirational Stories of Basketball and Compassion show how basketball enabled everyday people to gain deeper meaning in life by finding the compassion within themselves to lift up people who may be down.
Inspirational Stories of Basketball and Compassion is available for purchase online at Amazon.com.
