Product Description:
Mackenzie Allen Philips' youngest daughter, Missy, has been abducted during a family vacation and evidence that she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. 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!

I very much enjoyed reading The Shack. The story of Missy's abduction is disturbing. Even more disturbing, however, is the process of surrender that Mack works through as he connects with spirit.

William Young did a great job of helping me connect to this triad of spirit without my feeling inadequate due to no ... Read More

The Shack is a most wonderful book, thought-provoking, and full of wonder. You will cry one minute from the tenderness shown and laugh the next. Your heart will wrench then sing. Your emotions will run from one end of the scale to the other. It is one of the best books I've ever read and I am a better person for reading it.

This book is downright silly. I felt like I was reading a deleted scene from the matrix with never ending dialogue between Neo and the Oracle. Only without the cool action sequences.

I teach advanced Bible studies to intelligent, accomplished adults and am usually highly suspicious of books with Biblical themes, especially those built around fiction. But this reviewer is happy to qualify my five-star rating thus: This is outstanding reformed trinitarian theology. There are a few inconsequential unbiblical fillips tossed in here and there but they do not ruin the basics of Biblical truth, the important lessons therein.
True, God The Father is not a black woman named ... Read More
