Four years later in the midst of his Great Sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. Against his better judgment he arrives at the shack on a wintry afternoon and walks back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will change Mack's world forever. In a world where religion seems to grow increasingly irrelevant "The Shack" wrestles with the timeless question, "Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?" The answers Mack gets will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as it did him. You'll want everyone you know to read this book! Average Rating:
 Rating:  - the ShackFirst started this book and was not even sure I liked it, then continued and was not sure for awhile, but by the time I finished it I realized how God can be all things to all people, whatever they might need in their lives, and He knows best.

This is a book about theology in the guise of fiction, and it is dangerous at that. How any Christian bookstore can justify placing this on its shelves is beyond me. I have read many reviews about how people have had their view of God challenged, transformed, or, to take a word from the After Words of the book, revolutionized. Unfortunately, though, this book goes to great depths to undermine the very revelation of God Himself to the world. ...the Bible ...

John C Rating: - Unbelievable.You will pick up this book in the store and wonder whether it might be a murder mystery, supernatural thriller, or other faithful genre of popular literature. You will flip through it to sample dialog, perhaps an ordinary paragraph. You might do this when you pick up a book to get a taste, sort of sneak up on the author in some corner of the book he might not have spent as much time crafting as he did the first or last pages. Then you will be shocked. You will see that ... Read More Rating: - An Open Invitation To Walk With GodI have loved the works of C. S. Lewis for most of my life. I consider his THE GREAT DIVORCE and THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA to be among the most important books ever written. But until I read THE SHACK, I would have had a hard time explaining "why" I feel so strongly about Lewis. W. P. Young's brilliant novel answers that question for me: its all about relationship with God. Lewis strips away the "churchy-ness," the "religiosity," the "stained-glass pietism" and leaves a pristine encounter ... Read More |
