Описание: Meet Charlie Chan Hock Chye. Now in his early 70s, Chan has been making comics in his native Singapore since 1954, when he was a boy of 16. As he looks back on his career over five decades, we see his stories unfold before us in a dazzling array of art stylesand forms, their development mirroring the evolution in the political and social landscape of his homeland and of the comic book medium itself. With "The Art of Charlie Chan Hock Chye" Sonny Liew has drawn together a myriad of genres to create a thoroughly ingenious and engaging work, where the line between truth and construct may sometimes be blurred, but where the story told is always enthralling, bringing us on a uniquely moving, funny, and thought-provoking journey through the life of an artist and the history of a nation."

My Son, Give Me Your Heart is a devotional book that was written for young men. God's Word is the only protection young men have against the wicked things in this world. This book was also written for fathers, which could strengthen their relationships with their sons. Thus, fathers should read this book with their sons as a Bible study guide that honors and glorifies Christ.
Young men must be taught how to be wise. Watching movies, texting on cell phones, playing video games, hanging out at social events, and being involved in sports will never make them wise in salvation. Instructing them with godly wisdom will. This is why fathers must teach their sons about the fear of the Lord, and the gospel of Jesus Christ, or false teachers will instruct them to despise God's Word and everything in it.
