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.

God "is" with us... January 6, 2009 There are no words really. The Shack is something that pulled at me and God used it to mend my heart in places I thought it would always be broken. Thank you to all of you who have read and shared this book. It has been a blessing in my own life, and I would encourage any of you who have not read it to pick it up and let God meet you where you are.
The Shack January 6, 2009 This book is an incredible story and a real eye opener to the characteristics of God. Although fictional, the author has done a really great job of capturing the essence of the Trinity. Worth reading!!!
Christian Perspective January 6, 2009 Really enjoyed this writer's views of our relationship with God and forgiveness. It gets bogged down by discussions of the Trinity, but hand in there and read the whole thing because otherwise it is very thoughtful and encouraging in the faith.

The shack is one way to look at Christianity which is reminiscent of the Quietists of 17th century France. Faith is equated with trust rather than an intellectual assent to revelation. It discounts church, sacraments, and Eucharist as the pivotal points of the Christian life. Why must Mack always be crying?
Spiritually encouraging January 6, 2009 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This author captures what organized religion does not. The story is compeling but the true richness of this message is that we can all be "friends" with God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit without denominational considerations. This world is depressing and discouraging. Many have had bad experiences with organized religion. You will not be able to put this book down and you will purchase many copies to give to friends. I loved this book! My Christian faith is renewed with the concepts presented.
