OT: The Shack

Has anybody had a chance to read it? I'd heard mixed reviews about it but decided I wanted to read it for myself. Guess what? I got nothing done yesterday because once I started it - I had to fini****

Let me know what yall thought. I really thought it was worth the read - especially if you've ever wrestled with your own beliefs concerning religion and your concept of God.

Hi Iris,

I'd never heard of it, but googled it and read the forward. It looks like an interesting read.

I have several friends at church who have read it and loved it.  I bought it for my Mom for her birthday last week and she has almost finished it so i get it next..... 

I hear it's got some parts that really make you think!  Can't wait to read it.

I read it and found it to be fairly interesting.  It did make me think about how differently people view God.  All in all, I thought it was a pretty good book.

I absolutely loved it and highly recommend it.  It was a fascinating look at people's concept of God and religion.  It really made me think a lot of my own preconceived notions through.  

Take care.

Hey Iris:

After seeing this book everywhere i went and being drawn to it, I finally bought it.   The beginning was a little slow but once I got into it, I loved it.  Gave me a different view of God and peoples perceptions.  Doesn't mean any of us are right or wrong if we think differently.  I really loved the message.  I normally give books away after i am done reading but i have held onto this one for another read in about a year.  I definitely enjoyed it.

Love,  Pam

Iris - I know what you mean about not being able to put it down once you start.  I enjoyed it and found it to be very thought provoking, too.

I started a book at work and couldn't wait to get home and fini**** this morning.  The heck with sleeping... it was that good!  Debbie Macomber's Twenty Wishes.  I get nothing done when I am reading  LOL

Hey Iris, I just finished reading this book and I started around 6pm and it's now 3am but I just couldn't put in down. I would recommend it for everybody to read.
