Autorenporträt
Dr. Noel White grew up in Kentucky where he played high school and college basketball. He had planned to be a basketball coach but felt called to the pastoral ministry. After working two years as a program director for the YMCA in Kettering, Ohio, he earned a Master of Divinity Degree from Wesley Theological Seminary, and then a Doctor of Ministry Degree from Lexington Theological Seminary. He believes that the way to a meaningful life is through being compassionate to others. This book tells the stories of people who in compassion were involved with others, through their contacts in basketball.
