Product Description
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. In a world where religion seems to grow increasingly irrelevant "The Shack" wrestles with the timeless question, "Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?" The answers Mack gets will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as it did him. You'll want everyone you know to read this book!

 You'll either love it or you won't! December 1, 2008
Wow! Hardly any of the middle stars in the reviews (almost none). Reviewers either selected 5 stars or 1 star! That must mean there really is something to this book! I have been going through a tough time emotionally as of late (forget black friday... this was my black November). A real time of searching. A "What have I been created for type of thing." And I must say, I have found great healing in this book. After reading one of the chapters I realized that I no longer believed in God. I used to, but now I didn't any longer. What I mean by that is I used to believe in the real, touchable, miracle working God. But, somehow over time, my faith had dwindled to the point where I almost didn't see God as touchable... or good... anymore. This book is helping to revive that belief in God that I had with Him at the start... when all things were new. That is about all I can say for now. But, I am glad that this book crossed my path. And if the message in the book is true, then I'd have to say that it was by divine appointment that brought this book my way. Thank-you God!
The Shack December 1, 2008
This story touched me so deeply that I had to go out and buy several copies to give as christmas gifts. It reminds me that God could be anyone, anywhere, at anytime. Makes you stop and re-evaluate youself and your attitude. A must read!

When I started reading, I couldn't put it down. The Shack is a gripping story that beautifully illustrates God's desire for deep, intimate relationship with us. I would say this is a "must read" regardless of your "religious" orientation.

I am so glad I purchased the audio book. Listening to this really helped me understand what was going on. The author did an amazing job narrating the book. The book has made me feel so much closer to God and has helped me answer questions I was always struggling with. I have been recommending this book to everyone I know.

I couldn't put it down. It inspired me and strengthened my belief in God and gave comfort to the age old question of why bad things happen to good people. If you plan to read any books this coming year, make it this one.
