Have you read The Shack?

Alright, I have to admit- I am usually a major critic of Christian fiction books. They just usually don’t deliver on expectations. But I recently came across a gem- The Shack by William Paul Young. You have to check it out. It will change your perspective and stretch your spiritual paradigm, especially as it relates to the Trinity and God’s desire for relationship with us humans. As you read it, just keep in mind that it is written as Fiction. I can’t speak for the author, but I don’t believe he is trying to make some sort of theological statement. It’s a gripping tale of a man’s desire to find true community with God.
