Annotation

Written by the son of missionaries for his own children, THE SHACK has become an unforeseen bestseller. Riding a wave of both rapturous word-of-mouth praise and sharp criticism, it has become a significant novel in the Christian community. The premise is simple and powerful, like a tale from the Bible itself: Mackenzie Phillips, a former seminary student, is crippled with grief over the brutal abduction and murder of his young daughter four years ago. When he receives a summons to the mountain shack where his daughter was killed, he is suspicious, but eventually discovers that he has been called to a private meeting with God, with each part of the Holy Trinity appearing in different guises. Author William P. Young uses novelistic devices to make Christian values easily understood and, more significantly, deeply felt. However, his book has stirred up controversy in its casual and modernized depiction of God, and Young's occasional disregard for Church orthodoxy.


Editorial Reviews

TOWER.COM REVIEW

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.

Note: The hardback edition features a new appendix by William P. Young detailing the story behind writing and publishing The Shack.

5 out of 5 stars THE SHACK, September 26, 2008
By good read
This book is great. could not put it down. I think it deserves a read

5 out of 5 stars better than best, July 28, 2008
By FireStorm
It makes you think and question all you think you know. For those who have issue with which religion, this book will help set you in the right direction to what to do. This book is very much a eye opener, it made me want to cry, and made you think over everything that you know and that you can still make up your mind.

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely the Best Read, March 18, 2008
By fefe
If this doesnt make you want a relationship with God, dont know what would!!!!!!!!!!! It is right up there with the Bible but only simpler and just maybe better.

5 out of 5 stars The best book I have ever read and the only one I will read again., March 16, 2008
By Cari
If I could only keep one book in my house, I would get rid of all of the others, including my bible, and keep this one. It is not an instructional book or a book telling you how God is. It is a story that helps anyone identify with God with no religion involved. The only relationship is you with God.

5 out of 5 stars Simple, straight forward and wholeheartedly written, March 10, 2008
By Samuel
This book is truly life changing.
