Mike Newlin

A good friend called me and said he was a lunch with Mike Newlin and that Mike was someone that I needed to meet and invite to be a FIRST PERSON guest. As it turned out, I was so glad to get that call because talking with Mike and hearing his story has been inspirational. You’ll understand as you listen to FIRST PERSON this week.

Mike played in the NBA (National Basketball Association) for 11 years, starting with the Houston Rockets as one of the team’s original players. He also played with the New Jersey Nets and the New York Knicks, scoring 12,507 career points. But as you listen, you’ll hear Mike talk about his life in much more important terms as he has devoted himself to the study of God’s Word and making Christ known.
