 Amazing! October 9, 2008

I love it! it sure breaks up a lot of overly religious church views we have of God.
 Disappointing October 9, 2008

I read this book to see what all of the "hype" was about. Frankly, the book is not very well written and the story line isn't that great--much better books out there if you want to read good fiction. If you're interested in theology presented in a format the average person can understand, this book misses the mark too. And no, I'm not bothered by the characterizations of God as an African-American woman, Jesus as a Middle Eastern laborer, and the Holy Spirit as an Asian woman. Mr. Young's presentation of God's nature is not Biblical in many instances. In addition, sometimes what the author is trying to say is not clear. Read Tim Challie's review--he can say it better than I can. (Although I disagree with him on the forgiveness issue).
Want to be challenged, renewed and transformed? Read this book October 9, 2008

The Shack has been called a modern version of Pilgrim's Progress. I believe this book to be exactly that. If you're looking for a fresh spiritual "shot" in the arm, this book is for you. The author and publisher are men who have sought to tell their story in a manner that encourages, and brings a fresh perspective to what it means to have a personal encounter with the Living God and the other two members of the trinity.
This is not a book of theology or doctrine, but an honest story of one man's life, which speaks of us all. Thought provoking, funny, this book will make you cry, laugh, perhaps angry, but it will sober you and make you aware that God is bigger and better than anything we've been told at church.
I challenge anyone who wants to grow in their spiritual journey to grab this book and read it with an open heart and a clear mind.

This book really changes your perspective on God's character. It's as though you are bonding with God.
It has an excellent story line behind it. I just couldn't put it down once I had started it.
Will keep my copy forever October 9, 2008

It took me only 2 days to read this book; I could not put it down. I laughed and I cried during the whole read. I suggest everyone in the world read this book especially now during so much turmoil in the world. I think anyone who reads this will want to give it to everyone they know who needs to find some type of comfort in their lives. Highly recommended!
