5 stars insufficient November 25, 2007 StarLysandra Cole (Oregon, USA) 21 out of 31 found this review helpful
Right behind the Bible, this is at the top of my reading list. As soon as I finished, I wanted to read it again... but had to surrender it to my husband first who had been bugging me to define what I was reading. He isn't "a reader," but in less than two days, he has devoured 2/3rd of the book and is losing sleep cuz he can hardly put it down.
I'm back, to buy a dozen copies for 2007 Christmas... more than half to simply give away.
This is the most "nonfiction" fiction book I've ever read. The story line and presentation resists categorizing into a specfic hole... it reads like all the good parts of a "near death experience." It captures your imagination and holds your attention.
If you've ever been hopeless, joyless, confused... or simply complacent... about Who God is and how He feels about you... READ this book. I'm sure there will be those who don't "get" this book and its message. I am sad for those. There are those who will dismiss this book on preconceived "theological" or "doctrinal" issues. I'm far sadder for them. But, if you have been sincerely seeking to hear God's Heart, to catch a glimpse of Him in His Reality... apart from a transfiguration experience, I'd be hard pressed to think of a better way to touch Him.
And, if you have struggled with the issue of forgiveness for someone who has committed the "unforgiveable sin" against you... this book just might help you begin to see a way through that obstacle.
This goes to the TOP of my "MUST READ" suggestion list!
Do This One Thing November 25, 2007 L. M. Stewart 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I don't care who you are or where you came from. I don't care where you think you're going, either. There's not a place under the Son where this book won't meet you-if you let it.
A new revelation for me! November 22, 2007 Rex Schultz (Colorado Springs, CO) 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I am a pastor and seminary student and I have never read anything like "The Shack". It is a must-read for everyone whether you are a person of faith or not, whether you are in pain or not, etc. The story drew me in and I could not put it down. Your theology will be turned on its head and you'll see your entire life from a completely different perspective. Don't miss this!
I was moved to tears... November 21, 2007 Nancy Anderson (San Diego, California) 7 out of 10 found this review helpful
...and felt God's love while reading this story. I have read many works of fiction throughout my life; rarely has a book had this powerful an effect on me. I hope you'll pick up a copy and then pass it on. I bought a dozen copies for friends and want everyone to read it. It is very well-written, very engaging and most of all, a lovely representation of God's love for us.
EVERYONE should read this book!!! November 17, 2007 D. Antle 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book is extremely thought-provoking and belief-challenging, and it gives the best picture of God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit that I've ever seen. I've read it twice in the past month, and I intend to read it again very soon. It's given me much to consider in my own relationship with my King.
