Building Block - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Throughout his life, John Block has been a role model for those seeking faith-based excellence, a commitment that dates back to his career as a high-level pro basketball player, fiercely competitive college coach and inspiring mentor.

Block’s devotion to excellence continues today in his role as a respected mentor and guiding light for young people who wish to achieve higher levels in every aspect of their lives – body, mind and spirit.

His inspiring autobiography, BUILDING BLOCK, co-written with Chris Ahrens, traces his career and related roles as a 10-season NBA player and college coach, along with his pro bono training of top young athletes in the U.S., Europe and Africa, especially in the small nation of Benin, site of history’s first slave trade.

Starting with a mischievous childhood to his injury-plagued NBA career and lifetime total of 31 surgeries, Block tells poignant first-person tales and heartfelt reflections that go beyond the hardcourt. His abiding faith in the Lord Jesus gives him the strength and courage to help others.
