Coal Mine to Courtroom: A Quadriplegic's Memoir of Relentless Faith, Courage, and Eternal Success - 932

As one of Kentucky's top high school basketball players, "Ronnie" Adams dreamed of playing in the NBA, until a coal mining accident left him a quadriplegic at the age of 19. In spite of his debilitating injury, he struggled to finish college and is now a successful lawyer, overcoming seemingly impossible challenges. In Coal Mine to Courtroom, Adams shares his remarkable story of survival and his journey of faith, driven by a desperate search for a miracle. Along the way, he encountered Hollywood psychics, TV preachers, heartless professors, a dishonest lawyer, tough judges, and a few good friends. Coal Mine to Courtroom is painfully honest, often revealing uncomfortable details, but always with humor and sensitivity. It is an uplifting, compelling story about relationships, loss, love, survival, and salvation. This book will entertain and inspire readers from all walks of life, regardless of their personal beliefs. “…Adams recounts his unlikely road to success with the hope of inspiring others to push through their own obstacles… The stories about what happened…are related in the memoir with such raw honesty…” – Kentucky Monthly “Coal Mine to Courtroom is a testimony to resilience, perseverance, and re-envisioning the future.” – Diane T. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review “A paragon of perseverance… humility and hard-earned humor.” – LEO Weekly (Louisville Eclectic Observer)
