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!

This book is well written, easy to read and will entertain you purely on a fictional level, but it holds little to no truth according to what the Bible tells us. My suggestion to all Christians who decide to read this book is to make sure you know the bible first and then you will know when the book is not in line with what God teaches us.

Many are seeking an answer, many are seeking a way. An answer and a way to salvation. No, this book does not offer either of these, but what it offer is a way to come close to your maker and the creator of the universe.
Yes, there are discrepancies between the scriptures and the writings in these pages. However, what it does offer is more than most modern writings can offer, a chance to view our Holy Creator without the shackles of religion. In a matter of fact, questions have arisen ... Read More

I started this book a bit leery; generally speaking I'm not impressed by Christian fiction and often Christian non-fiction puts me to sleep. This wasn't the the best technically written book but once I got past the chapters that set up the meeting at the shack, I found it insightful and often profound. At times it was too much to take in and comprehend. I can't say I buy everything hook, line and sinker but it goes a long way to explaining things that I have accepted but never grasped. I actually ... Read More

The far-and-away top-selling Christian book this summer has been "The Shack." In fact, it is currently the third top-selling book on Amazon.com for all categories.
I read "The Shack" in May. Since then, I have talked to friends who have read the book, read rave (and critical) reviews about the book, and heard of a few Christian leaders I know who have distributed the book en masse.
I feel that this book is theologically wrong on at least one deal-breaker point and, therefore, ... Read More

So many others have gone into the real problems with theology here I won't dwell on it but I'd like to add to the New Age references: Mack's wife-beating, alcoholic father in Jesus's company after death, people feel 'each other's light and colors', God submits to us, His 'wisdom' personified ... This was NOT a Christian book just because he included Jesus.
God didn't want to stereotype Himself by being an old Gandalf-like man but the author didn't feel manifesting God as an old, black woman ... Read More
