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!
Touched more than I thought possible!October 12, 2008 When I was given this book to read I thought, "I hope it is entertaining." Was I surprised to find that it went far beyond my expectations and entered the realm of "life-changing". This book took the central premise of Christianity, God's sacrificial and accommodating love for us, and made it real to me in a way that touched me profoundly. I felt God's presence throughout the pages of this book and I have experienced a paradigm shift in my thinking about God. I only hope that you will be touched in a similarly powerful way so that you also will know the power, the purpose, the transformational touch and the complete freedom of His love.
inspiring and intriguing bookOctober 12, 2008 The Shack is an amazing book. I think it is a book everyone should read. It will definitely give you lots to think about.

I loved this book, it brought a lot of perspective to me and how life should be.. I am amazed that this happened but not at all surprised; You have to Believe to Recieve.

I first heard of "The Shack" from a friend at my grandson's birthday. I agreed it would be a nice book to read and promptly forgot. While looking on Amazon, for another selection, I saw "The Shack" and bought it. After reading the first page I was hooked! I'm an active Christian and over the years have had the usual difficulties understanding the Trinity, turning your life COMPLETELY over to God and many other areas. This book is remarkable in the way it overturns the usual roadblocks we humans put in front of our beliefs. Everything is heightened and made simple at the same time. It's perfect for our global world because the sterotypic images of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit aren't there.
Anyone will appreciate the heart and love for our world the author relates.

This book opens the hearts of all readers, whether a believer or not. It will make you step back and say, "How could God not be that way? He is so detailed in our lives." A beautiful concept, really. Bravo to the measure of faith that was written on each page of this wonderful revolution!
