As someone who who endures with the same disease as Alonzo, I found it to be inspiring and it gave me hope. It is such an encouragement to read the story of someone who has gone through this and come out the other end. I only hope my witness can be as shining as his some day.

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.

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.
