A collection of articles written by Philip Yancey. He describes it as a "book of many questions and few answers." His writing can cause my mind to ponder the mysteries of life, love, and faith.

Of all Yancey's books, I think I like the first one I read the best. Maybe because I read it at a time when I was being told I was ungodly. Jesus shows me the image of a God I long to know.

Many consider this Yancey's best book. Chapter 13 talks about his friendship with Mel White.

Another good book by Yancey.

The First (or Old) Testament is what Jesus used. In the middle of ugly stories, he found gems like "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind" and "Love your neighbor as yourself."

Ok, I'm a fan of Yancey's writing. This is another book I own and is on my "To Read" list.

I walked away from my church back in 1999 because I felt unwelcome as someone who happened to be gay. I saw this in Yancey's collection of writings. I have yet to read it though.

This book covers 13 people of faith who have shaped Yancey's own faith. I especially enjoyed the chapters on Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, Shusaku Endo, Henri Nouwen, Leo Tolstoy & Feodor Dostoevsky. In my own journey, I have been shaped by Yancey's writings. I discovered Yancey in 1998 while I was a fundamentalist in a fundamentalist church and he was a beacon of hope. Though probably not as liberal as I am, I still buy every book he writes. I look forward to the day when he affirms gay people and doesn't feel the need to immediately write about his own sinfulness after mentioning his gay friends.

I saw this book in Wal-mart after the September 11th terrorist attacks and picked it up.

New book released September 2003.
