This book was not my cup of tea I believe the author was trying to open up the reader to new ways of looking at God and the trinity but the way he executed his story was just not there for me.

The shack is a thing, in a place, where good and evil co-exist – if the reader wants to interpret it that way. Something happened at or around the shack – it could have been anything; but for whatever happened, a story wove through it and a set of conclusions to be deduced sat amongst the words of t...

I finally got around to reading "The Shack" after it sat in my "To Be Read" pile for quite some time. I was almost a little apprehensive about reading it because of the vast differences in opinions that I had heard regarding it. Many of my friends absolutely LOVED it, but many didn't care for it. ...
