1: Inspiration and courage
I saw an interview with Alonzo Mourning during a showing of the 700 Club, and was impressed with his unwavering faith during his great physical trail with his health. His approach to his struggle with kidney disease is one with tremendous dignity and determination. For those of us who have the times in our lives when our belief and faith is in question, and you may wonder if you can continue, this is the book to assist you on the journey. The real joy for me is that when you make the purchase of this book, a portion of the proceeds goes to the Kidney Foundation to help others who are dealing with kidney disease. Way to go, Alonzo! : )

Alonso Mournings is a true hero on a compelling journey of courage, faith and being of service to others. HIs book Resislence is a must read that inspires and motivates the reader to to find their own courage. His honesty allows us a glimpse inside of this sports icon, to see his heart, to know his fears, and to see his humaness. Resislence was ne of the best books of the year.

4: Excellent Read
I am a BIG fan of ZO and has been since his playing days at Georgetown. I can follow the book easily when talking about his earlier days in DC as I was born and raised there and know some of the events and people that he mentions in the book. He is an awesome man and I had the chance to meet him a couple of years ago and he is a very friendly, easy going individual and has come a long way. This is an excellent read and I almost finished it in one day. I recommend this book to all.

5: Wonderful Book
I have always liked Alonzo Mourning as a basketball player. I now have new found respect for a guy I already thought was top of the class in the NBA. After reading this wonderful book, I have a new found respect and I like him even more. I love how he is such a family man and his family and God comes first. He is a great role model for not just his son, but for many young men who look up to the NBA stars and want to be just like them. I just hope that a fraction of our young men, turn out half as a wonderful human being as Alonzo is. This book made me laugh, made me cry, made me happy and made me upset. I felt that I was right along every good and bad thing that happened to him. I just loved reading each page and hated to get to the end. Keep up the great work that you have started Zo.
