the shack

i started reading

The Shack

last weekend.

 

now, i realize i am about

5 years late to this party &

i am probably the last

God-fearing Christian in the free world to read it.

however,

in my defense ...

i've been too busy reading karen kingsbury's

baily flanigan series to be bothered

with something more than 4" deep.

 

 

 let me tell you,

i was in no way prepared for what lies on The Shack's pages!

by chapter 4, i was a crying mess

& scolding my mister for not

preparing me for what i had read!

but, he promised me that

the story unfolds in beautiful redemption.
&, boy, does it!!!

 

 

if you haven't read The Shack ...

I encourage you to

put down your People Magazine & read it!!!

it is a beautiful story &

destroys all of the nice

little neat stereotypical boxes

we try to fit God into.

 

 

the story has reminded me so

much of the way God intended

our relationships with Him & others to be.

not about power... but forgiveness, service & submission.

 

 

if you have read it or decide to read it ...

i'd LOVE to know what little

nuggets of wisdom you get out of it!!!
