The Shack by William P Young

When asked what is it about, I find myself saying "you need to read it yourself" because this book can, if you will let it, expand your ideas of Father God ...the relationship He has with His son, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit and how they love us, mankind. The focus is not on the story but on us and God. Simply amazing!

Thought Provoking

The Shack provokes thoughts about who God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit really are in contrast to who we think they are. I haven't been so affected by a book since Ninety Minutes in Heaven. Some readers may be skeptical, but all will be moved. No one can argue with another person's experience or what that person perceives it to be. First-hand face-to-face encounters with God intrigue me. I thank God for giving us a modern day view of His being. "God is a verb."

Seeing God as He is

Wow! The Shack has truly opened my eyes to The Papa,Son, and Holy Spirit.
Through the experiences that Mack had to go through of losing his child in such a terrible way. God (Papa) gives him understanding and wisdom to all of lifes questions. It is one of the best books I have ever read, next to The Holy Bible.
A life changing experience!

A Very Different Approach of the Trinity

This is the most down to earth explanation for the Trinity, even though it threw me for a loop. God is Papa, a large Black woman who is the cook. Jesus is a "normal" human-God person who wears the clothing of today. The Holy Spirit was portrayed as an Asian female who was more invisible at times. Mack was suffering great pain over the murder of his little girl, and had basically turned from God. However, one is never quite sure if he had a vision, a dream, an hallucination, or a revelation when he returned to the shack at the invitation of "Papa". I am giving three stars for the forgiveness found and the methodology of the writer. However, I still have more questions than answers after reading this book. It was more difficult to understand than my Bible, by far.
