Hope Restored

Before I had even heard of this book, I was told it would change my life. While I have never experienced something as horrific as Mack and his family do, William Young's novel did, in fact, help me reaffirm my own relationship with God.

Both tragic and inspirational, this book aims to teach, to inspire. As the narrator, Willie, explains: we should take from this story what we would like. And I choose to take from this hope, hope that forgiveness can heal us and love can overcome evil.

The death of Missy is devastating; I could hardly read the description of her disappearance and subsequent death. However, like Mack, this story helped me to heal. I felt comfort in God's own sadness; he too lost a son. Likewise, I felt happiness at this incredible, awe-inspiring presence. And, at the end, when Mack has the strength to say goodbye--properly--to his daughter, we, as readers, feel a sense of peace.

Perhaps a dream, perhaps a parable, perhaps a true experience--nonetheless, this novel challenges us to confront powerful issues in our lives. And, when we are asked to forgive--as God asks of Mack--will we, too, rise and kill all hatred with open love?

Awesome!

This book is one of the best books I have ever read. I typically do not like to read fiction. I prefer books that actually teach you something instead of just entertaining you. But, this book does both! I can't think of any "type" of person who would not benefit from this book. It is moving, enterntaining, and most of all teaches you about God in a way that sticks with you. I plan to buy one for all of my loved ones for Christmas!

Most incredible book!!!!!

It is the most incredible book I've ever read it!!! It gives you a true sense and visual image of the true nature of God.
Please do not miss the chance to read a great book!!!
