The Shack

Well my goal of reading (or finish reading) 52 books this year is going pretty well!  I just finished “The Shack” today and I’ve also got “Power from on High” by Charles Finney done as well.

Anyway…more on The Shack.  I had read about 75% of it last fall, and finally picked it up today and finished it.  The Shack has caused a lot of controversy among Christians, but that’s expected.  We Christ-followers don’t agree on much, much less on books that don’t toe the standard party line.  I don’t want to give away the plot to The Shack, but I would really recommend reading it.  So many people I know would not make that recommendation, for fear that people don’t have sense enough to distinguish truth from error on their own, but I have a little more faith in people and in God’s ability to help people search for truth.

If you do read The Shack, be warned – it’s a tear jerker.  Keep a box of tissue nearby if you are prone to tears.  learn more about The Shack at http://www.theshackbook.com/.
