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!

It might be challenging at first to start reading this book but put all worries aside and plunge into it - it is grace-filled and exalts the wonders of our LORD Jesus Christ and the love of our heavenly Father through unconvetional metaphors. =) Beautiful and moving. I borrowed a copy for the local National Library, but upon completion bought myself a copy for keeps. Young has successfully captured the essence of God's love, grace and tender mercies towards us in his writing. Brilliant.
