This fast-paced, compelling and chilling account, is the deeply moving story of a three-times Kung Fu World Champion. With fascinating insight into the traditions of China's martial arts, it documents the abusive upbringing that turned a four-year-old child into a hardened, professional killer. // From China to Europe and across the Meditarranean, we follow Tony as he becomes an elite bodyguard, protecting some of the world's most powerful people. // Following personal tragedy, Tony's extreme discipline and the philosophy of his art is quickly turned. He begins to use his skills for illegal means and highly destructive, bloodthirsty pleasure. // Eventually incarcerated in jail in Cyprus, Tony hits rock bottom. Through the visits of a stranger, he is introduced to the reality and life-changing power of Jesus Christ. Though the prison walls hold him, he finds himself a free man. This is just the beginning of a complex and fascinating testimony. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

I was disappointed to learn that it is believed that most of the authors story was FABRICATED. He has been interviewed regarding this and the answers given in my view were unsatisfactory. There was also a long and drawn out court case after the accident involving the lady and both the author and his wife were investigated for concealing evidence of the accident...this when they were both professing Christian's and in ministry!
This type of scandal has done more damage to the Christian Church than any good that may have come from his original testimony. His best course of action now would be to admit that eh made it up, repent and donate all the money that he has made from his story to Christian work (this book sold millions of copies.) I don't see how realistically he can continue in Christian ministry or certainly not in a leadership role.
Not recommended as it's not true!! ( )
