La fidelidad implica aprender a confiar que, más allá del perímetro de la oscuridad, Dios aún reina y no nos ha abandonado, no importa lo que parezca.

Philip Yancey

Philip Yancey (* 1949) ist ein US-amerikanischer christlicher Journalist und Buchautor, der lange als leitender Redakteur für das Magazin Christianity Today wirkte. Er wurde durch Bestseller über Leid, Zweifel und radikale Gnade bekannt, in denen er sich gegen religiösen Moralismus und fundamentalistische Engführungen wandte. Bibellesern bieten seine Schriften einen undogmatischen Zugang zu existentiellen Glaubenskrisen, wenngleich seine Positionen in konservativen Kreisen umstritten blieben und er sich 2026 nach einem eingestandenen Fehlverhalten aus dem öffentlichen Dienst zurückzog.
