highly recommended

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.

A Ray of Sunshine

In a time of uncertainty, this book brings hope, challenge, joy and a sense of purpose.

"The Shack" was recommended to me by a trusted friend who said, "You need to read this book - you may be uncomfortable sometimes, but keep reading..." She was right.

Are you feeling that the world is out of control? Do you wish you had answers? Is there bitterness, anger or a hole in your life? I can't guarantee that this book will "fix it" - but if your heart is seeking, you may find something that will lead you to your "heart's desire".

It is my belief that every person of faith should consider the words of this book - it's a treasure.

"Faith does not grow in the house of certainty"

William P. Young's "The Shack" is the most fully-realized and artistically successful modern-day fable since Mark Fisher's 1990 classic The Instant Millionaire: A Tale of Wisdom and Wealth. Both books center around physical journeys as well as inward, spiritual quests. The book is loaded with "payoffs"...bits of crystal-clear wisdom that usually come at the end of an extended exchange between characters. I won't offer any spoilers (beyond the one I used for my review title).

Simply put, it's a book about the relationship between God and man (or the lack of one). It's human nature to "connect the dots" by looking out, never in, and "looking in" with honesty and humility is where God is found.

Most readers will see at least a little of themselves in Mack Phillips...maybe more than a little. We all tend to spin in our own orbits, create our own realities, and fill up our knapsacks with the burdens we choose to carry. Some people fail to "make room for God" because they see Him as the source of their suffering and pain, their lack, their fears, all of the negative things. That's one way people choose to define God. There are other ways. That's what this book is about.

Very highly recommended.

A thought-provoking, powerful book

This book will certainly challenge your beliefs, and may even change your relationship with God. Well written and engaging, it is a much-needed balm for hurts caused by religion and religious, legalistic people. It changed how I view God, and reminded me of what a relationship with God is supposed to be. I highly recommend this book.
