| The Shack (Special Hardcover Edition) by Windblown Media cannot believe I was taken in by the hype |
| This book should come with a warning. It is not a story about the devistation that people who brutally loose someone feel and how they endure such a thing. It is SLAM SOMEONEs VIEW OF THEOLOGY DOWN YOUR THROAT. I was hoping for a heartfelt human story. Not drivel. So disappointed. |
| The Shack (Special Hardcover Edition) by Windblown Media Some Good Thinking but Too Orthodox in Some Ideas |
| This is an engrossing story that draws you in. The story is a literary device for presenting to readers some of the nature of the Divine that the author has come to understand from whatever personal experience or reading the discoveries of others. The book is somewhat inspiring. I would recommend that most people read it. My two outstanding concerns are that 1) it presents some of the same old theology about the allegedly uniquely Divine nature of Jesus of Nazareth (which most thinking people - not all - set aside as inadequate, uninspiring and outdated years ago); and 2) it makes the Divine a bit too "familiar" and human-like, just as the movie "God," with George Burns, did some 30 years ago. That which is both transcendent and immanent (indwelling) cannot be so easily described as the author seems to think he can. Notwithstanding those two concerns, I still would recommend this book. |
| The Shack (Special Hardcover Edition) by Windblown Media Simply not consistent with Scripture |
| Unfortunately, this book is not about bringing people closer to God, because the author creates his own god, one not consistent with God the Father as taught in scripture. However, this type of flagrant disreguard for scripture is consistent with prophecy. People will search for those who teach what they want to hear as society declines. I am quite surprised that so many Christians are embracing this book. I encourage Christain readers to read this book in light of scripture and not compromise truth for wishful thinking. |
| The Shack (Special Hardcover Edition) by Windblown Media One in a million |
| What an amazing read!!! I think everyone would benefit from reading this book. This must be a story after God's own heart. This story can be life changing. |
| The Shack (Special Hardcover Edition) by Windblown Media Outstanding Truths |
| The fiction in the book is a little farfetched for me, but the revealed truths are outstanding. It challenges you to reach deep into your soul to find meaning and purpose for your life here and forever after. Life is full of choices and this book shares some choices we can choose to follow and they can make all the difference in our life. |

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?
