One of the most influential Christian writers today, Philip Yancey has managed to forge a personal faith despite early encounters with a racist, legalistic religion that bore little resemblance to the good news of the Gospel. In Soul Survivor, his most soul-searching book yet, he tells the story of his struggle to reclaim belief, powerfully rendering his own experience among those of several notable figures, whom he calls his spiritual directors. Soul Survivor is Yancey's tribute to thirteen remarkable individuals, mentors who transformed his life and work. Besides recalling their effect on him, Yancey provides fresh glimpses of the lives and faith journeys of each one. From the scatterbrained journalist G. K. Chesterton to the tortured novelists Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoevsky, to contemporaries such as Dr. Paul Brand, Annie Dillard, and Frederick Buechner, Yancey gives inspiring portraits of those who modeled for him a life-enhancing rather than a life-constricting faith.
