Overexposed to the distortions and hypocrisies of Christian churches
Philip Yancey set out in search of a life enhanced by faith instead of diminished by religion.
Having struggled to forge personal convictions about God amid the ironies of life and the incongruities of religion
he looks closer at those whose lives radiate spiritual authenticity rather than pious posturing.
From John Donne to Martin Luther King
Dostoevsky to Mahatma Gandhi
G K Chesterton to Henri Nouwen
Yancey pays homage to some of the most remarkable
selfless
Christ-like lives our world has known
and asks what both he and we can do to find such beautiful faith in our own lives.
Soul Survivor's haunting new Preface covers Yancey's personal experience of the September 11 tragedy and his subsequent visit to Ground Zero
which once again prompted a searing spiritual self-examination.
