The Shack

I think I have a new favorite book. It is "The Shack" by William P. Young and I read it in about six hours. I was completely fascinated by it. While the book is fiction, I marked page after page of profound ideas about God and relationship with him.

The premise is that a man who is hurting and in a deep depression gets a letter from God inviting him to a meeting at the source of his pain, a physical location. The God who meets him there surpasses and changes all of the man's preconceived, small ideas about religion and relationship.

I could quote you pages and pages from this book but I would rather you read it and tell me what you think. Or, come to book club next week and talk about it with us!
