== Biography ==
Yancey was born in Atlanta〔''Soul Survivor: How My Faith Survived the Church'' by Yancey, Hodder & Stoughton, 2001, p 12.〕 and grew up in nearby suburbs.〔''Finding God in Unexpected Places'' by Philip Yancey, 1995, Zondervan, p. 60.〕 When Yancey was one year old, his father, stricken with polio, died after church members suggested he go off life support in faith that God would heal him. This and other negative experiences with a rigid church contributed to Yancey's losing his faith at one point of time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Philip Yancey's Life )〕〔''Soul Survivor: How My Faith Survived the Church'' by Yancey, Hodder & Stoughton, 2001, pp 21–22.〕 After high school he attended Columbia Bible College, where he met his wife, Janet.〔''Soul Survivor: How My Faith Survived the Church'' by Yancey, Hodder & Stoughton, 2001, pp 2, 45.〕 His two graduate degrees in Communications and English were earned from Wheaton College Graduate School and the University of Chicago.
Yancey moved to Chicago, Illinois, and in 1971 joined the staff of ''Campus Life'' magazine—a publication of Youth for Christ directed towards high school and college students—where he served as editor for eight years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Soul Survivor – Philip Yancey – "About the Author" )〕 Yancey was for many years an editor for ''Christianity Today'' and wrote articles for ''Reader's Digest'', ''The Saturday Evening Post'', ''Publishers Weekly'', ''Chicago Tribune Magazine'', ''Eternity'', ''Moody Monthly'', and ''National Wildlife'', among others. He now lives in Colorado, working as an editor-at-large for ''Christianity Today''. He is a member of the editorial board of ''Books & Culture'', another magazine affiliated with ''Christianity Today'', and travels around the world for speaking engagements.
Yancey was critically injured in a motor vehicle accident in February 2007 but recovered well. By August 2007, he had completed his goal of climbing all 54 of Colorado's -plus peaks, the final three after his accident.〔ChristianityTodayLibrary.com newsletter January 21, 2008 reproduced in (Random Musings from a Doctor's Chair ) (retrieved January 27, 2008).〕
