The Shack


I finished The Shack last week! I have to say the book started off and had my attention and then took a turn that I didn't expect at all. The main character meets God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit and through conversations receives answers to many of his questions about why bad things happen, etc.

Several reviews list the book as "life altering" "life changing" among other rave reviews. I have to say I did enjoy it. It gave some very complex theological teachings in layman's terms. However, life altering/changing. Not so much. Maybe if I was not of Christian faith or did not have an understanding of how the Holy trinity worked I would have a different opinion.

Still, I rated it 5 stars and would recommend it to friends and family.
