A book that can change,,EVERYTHING "The Shack"

[myfavoritemartin]

This Book Is A Travesty...

But you see, Satan is in this story, whether he is stated in print or not. Anything that is not of God is of Satan...period. There are no gray areas.

This book written to change people's prospective of God. The word "fiction" is just to hide this purpose. It is kind of like saying "no offense" right before offending someone.

Perfectly stated,God Bless You!

I thought it was boring. I don't believe in any such Trinity but do I think the book is evil? No, not at all.

Well...I live in gray areas...so there you go.

Did this book change your perspective of God? Probably not. For people that already envision a God like this...it's just adding more colors to the picture they have. For those that can't fathom a God like this...it's an abomination. So I stand by my statement that where you are on that great big Christian spectrum is likely to determing how you feel about this book.

There are no gray areas...so if you are not in the light, then there is only the gnashing of teeth to talk to.

Life is full of gray areas unless you live in denial and avoid reality.

And by in the light, you mean subscribe to YOUR beliefs.

I can't believe this is a book forum.

Is there any book like the shack? if so, is there a list of the books like it?

Like The Shack in what way?

I think maybe some Frank Peretti books might fit the bill, or perhaps The Heart Reader, by Terri Blackstock (originally published anonymously), or..... but I'm not sure what about The Shack was appealing to you.

 

[Medievalarmy]

What was appealing in The Shack was whenever Mack was spending time with Jesus to me.

This book was given to me by a friend. I read it and found it interesting but some of the things in the book did not sit well with my spirit. I read it more than a few months ago so I can't remember exactly what it was that I didn't like, I just know it didn't feel right to me. I think the message of being loved unconditionally by GOD is wonderful but I don't know about this book. My friend suggested I read it more than once to get a better understanding of it but I really don't want to.

Perfect, thank you! I just bought this book at a Church sale, my friends have raved about it. I will probably start it tonight.
